Finally, the OFS can be readily adapted to accommodate a variety of future hypotheses and experiments.
In this section, we describe a method in which the said information is applied proactively, that is, in a manner whereby previously evaluated solutions direct the choice of future hypotheses.
This study also adds to the growing body of literature on strain geographic, clinical, and epidemiologic diversity and provides vital insights for generation of future hypothesis-driven studies of strain virulence and transmissibility.
We recognize that down-regulation of a broad spectrum of genes may reflect a non-specific toxicity rather than mechanistic regulation of specific genes, a subject of future hypotheses.
Data were collected through comprehensive questionnaires and blood and urine samples to provide researchers with a wide range of data for future hypothesis testing.
Perhaps this spirit of cooperation could (should) also be extended to open access, anonymised patient databases as a means of comparing models of care and for future hypothesis generation.
However, it was a useful concept from which to synthesize independent lines of evidence and can serve as a basis for future hypothesis testing of the two scenarios.
Our model can be extended as a general analytical approach for future hypothesis testing of bark beetle fungal associations.
The study was designed to be exploratory and descriptive – to identify the attitudes and reported practices of key stakeholder groups, provide a baseline data set, and suggest areas of concern for future hypothesis-driven research.
To explore this methodology as a way of generating future hypotheses concerning obesity-related factors, we specifically focused on community-level factors previously correlated with obesity, such as access to nutritious food and physical activity, as well as income, population size and education.
