With colleagues in Slovenia and with the assistance of the National Archives of the Netherlands, he has published proof-of-concept research that shows that it is possible to understand both the composition and condition of old paper by analyzing the volatile organic compounds they emit.
This proof-of-concept research indicated the well hybridization of graphene and CNTs holds promise in the efficient use as flexible electrodes for future flexible electronics.
The motivation of this proof-of-concept research was to evaluate whether FTIR microspectroscopy coupled with multivariate imaging could be a valuable tool for the localization of PHB in sugarcane leaves.
While such predictive capability must remain a major longer-term scientific goal, the scope of the Environment and Human Health programme in its first phase has been of necessity more pragmatic, with a focus on exploratory ("proof-of-concept") research and building the interdisciplinary community required for the task.
Preliminary work could be done in systems where purple and green varieties currently exist, and are commonly planted, such as cabbage and lettuce, and could be extended to more economically important crops (soy, cotton, corn) as proof-of-concept research accumulates.
Additionally, a key problem in modeling the IoT using existing methodologies and tools is that the number of devices in the real world far outnumbers the one used as a proof-of-concept in research papers using traditional simulation tools.
Nevertheless, the integrative (pathway and gene expression) analysis strategy proposed here was indeed motivated to address this typical, and probably unavoidable, restriction in proof-of-concept translational research applications.
There has been a considerable amount of proof-of-concept and demonstration research done in the field of ER control in recent years, most of which has focused on elementary behaviors such as object avoidance and homing.
Since this was a proof-of-concept study, more research is needed to confirm the relationships we observed between arsenic exposure and biochemical changes.
Recommendation 3: Increase investments in health and biotechnology product development: Some of the recent increase in scientific funding could support and encourage proof of concept translational research.
The outcomes of this research will provide valuable proof-of-concept data for future research in dietary management of CVD risk in CKD, with the hypothesis being that therapeutic control of sodium intake will reduce CV disease progression and events in CKD patients.
