This methodological shift may explain some of the differences i.e. in overall scores for PA.
Tools which may be used in such a comprehensive research, including molecular biology applied to field studies, require a methodological shift from the reductionism that has been used until recently as a basic axiom in interpretation of data.
This methodological shift toward deep sequencing has changed the scale of investigation for many genomic studies and now allows the study of horizontal transfers (HTs) between eukaryotic species (Gilbert et al. 2010, 2013; Gilbert and Cordaux 2013).
"It's a methodological paradigm shift, and it's a very exciting one, but not for everybody who does this sort of traditional individual research in the lab".
But Henry Markram of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, who leads the project, says the signatories have trouble accepting the "methodological paradigm shift" toward computer modeling that the project embodies; he adds that many more neuroscientists still support the project.
