Abstract
The data deluge (generally referred as “Big Data”) biomedical scientists are facing in these years asks for a serious epistemological thinking in order to avoid both “data bases idolatry” and “preconceived refusal”. Starting from the evident reproducibility crisis of biomedical sciences here we sketch some hopefully useful indications for a sensible use of data mining approaches.
