Thanks. I do hope for the best for your future.
I believe you'll find that some skewing of research occurs as a natural result of the need to get grant money to survive. It begins with tailoring your proposal to what is currently cannonical, acceptable, fashionable, safe, and most politically correct. I know I considered this whan I applied for and received a state grant. Beyond that, there is pressure exerted when findings are reviewed, edited, and ultimately published.
It's an unfortunate fact of life and it revolves around the power relationships linking grantors and grantees.
