Dario Crosetto, an Italian-American scientist, is spearheading a call for increased transparency and accountability within the scientific community, particularly targeting the allocation of billions in taxpayer funds to research projects that may not deliver on their promises. Crosetto’s inventions, the 3D-Flow and 3D-CBS (3D Complete Body Screening), represent potential breakthroughs in both particle physics and medical imaging, offering cost-effective solutions to early cancer detection and efficient data processing in high-energy physics experiments.
Crosetto’s 3D-Flow technology, recognized as a breakthrough in 1993, enables the accurate detection of objects traveling at the speed of light, with applications ranging from particle physics to early cancer detection. Despite its proven potential, Crosetto claims his innovations have been sidelined in favor of less efficient, more costly alternatives, such as the FPGA-based systems currently under construction at CERN for the 2026-2036 experiments. These systems, according to Crosetto, are fundamentally flawed and destined to fail, wasting billions in taxpayer money.
The implications of Crosetto’s call for transparency extend beyond the scientific community, touching on the ethical use of public funds and the potential to save countless lives through early cancer detection. His 3D-CBS device, designed for cost-effective screening, could halve premature cancer mortality rates, a claim supported by simulations but yet to be experimentally proven due to lack of funding.
Crosetto’s efforts to bring his inventions to light have been met with resistance, leading him to appeal directly to the public, Members of the European Parliament, and U.S. Congressmen to demand accountability from institutions like CERN. He advocates for a public, face-to-face meeting to compare the scientific merits and cost-effectiveness of his 3D-Flow system against CERN’s FPGA-based solutions, emphasizing the need for evidence-based decision-making in science.
The stakes are high, with Crosetto estimating that over $4 billion in taxpayer funds have already been wasted on inadequate systems. His proposal for a transparent review of competing technologies not only aims to prevent further financial waste but also to unlock the life-saving potential of his medical imaging invention. As the debate over scientific transparency and innovation funding continues, the broader implications for public health, scientific integrity, and fiscal responsibility remain at the forefront of Crosetto’s campaign.
