Encourage debate
Admit when you are wrong and encourage trainees to do the same. Science provides many opportunities to be wrong, whether it be disproving a favorite hypothesis or forgetting a step in a protocol. But young scientists often have a fear of failure or worry about facing repercussions for their mistakes.Source: Science
I don't quite understand the meaning of "whether it be disproving a favorite hypothesis or forgetting a step in a protoco". The author seems to give examples of "many opportunities to be wrong" - does it mean ":whether you are wrong in disproving a favorite hypothesis or forgetting a step in a protocol"?
