The very early research in paleo-epigenetics has been mainly proof-of-concept.
Although important progress has been made in the fabrication and use of 3D nanostructures for biology, current research is mainly at proof-of-concept stage and has yet to make its way to tackle real biological questions.
Although the intra-cortical LV injections in the present study were used mainly as proof-of-principle tools for the verification of Homer1a efficacy, as previously described, our current results represent the foundation of future development of clinical applications of Homer1a with less invasive tools.
However, with the availability of the PDE4 inhibitor Roflumilast we decided to change to this approved COPD treatment, to include a more relevant positive control in the low-dose LPS challenge model that is planned to be used mainly in proof-of-concept studies with novel anti-inflammatory treatments developed in the field of COPD.
It's mainly a proof of concept, so the exploit won't really damage your installation, but the proof is in the pudding, as they say.
To be honest, I'm not convinced of the utility of this particular model, but it's mainly a proof of concept.
The device, announced at a recent conference in Japan, is mainly a proof of principle, however, since its design isn't suited to being packed in large numbers on a chip.
The Mosaic.io app itself, which is designed mainly as a proof-of-concept and sales demonstration tool for the tech behind it, nonetheless offers some useful features for end-users, too.
The implementation of the PMIPv6-HC handover scheme is focused mainly on the proof-of-concept in terms of demonstrating the capability of the scheme to reduce handover delay and packet loss without incurring extrasignaling overhead in the air interface.
The logic of Equalities with Uninterpreted Functions is used in the formal verification community mainly for proofs of equivalence: proving that two versions of a hardware design are the same, or that input and output of a compiler are semantically equivalent are two prominent examples of such proofs.
Although researchers mainly find proofs of the negative effects of accelerating aging on the economy and on social structures, some demographers call for a calmer evaluation of the consequences of aging (Lloyd-Sherlock et al. 2012; Van Dalen and Henkens 2011; Vaupel and Loichinger 2006).
