It doesn't always exist or work this way but it overwhelmingly does. That is why you have technology and research methodologies at your disposal.


Again, this doesn't change the fact that those who do science are humans that exist within a community that has different trends, in the same way that things become trending on Facebook.

"Dynamics" has become trendy in my field over the past few years. If you attempt to publish a time-varying analysis, you are going to have a much easier time getting it accepted now than you would have a couple of years ago. Different brain regions often fade into and out of the lime-light, etc...

There are clear publication biases at work. A brain region can be associated with a particular faculty because people examining that faculty only look at that brain region.
