If this were right, then they would be capable of challenging the kind of synthetic theses that methodological naturalists take philosophy to involve.
Furthermore, the current availability of novel antigenic preparations (recombinant, highly purified extracts, circular plasmids and synthetic oligonucleotides), along with other methodological improvements, has led to the production of new generation immunoassays that are able to detect anti-dsDNA only of intermediate and high avidity [49].
Second, with the current GRNI methods, simpler approaches (for example, correlation) often outperform more-complicated ones even on synthetic data, presumably because the methodological complications fail to capture key complexities of the underlying models and/or combinatorial regulation [ 18].
The second methodological step involves operationalizing this synthetic description into a composition of smaller models specified over three scalar hierarchical levels.
At first glance there seems to be a stark contrast between DIY-Bio's methodological approach and that of mainstream synthetic biology.
Applying these methodological developments, we show that small synthetic iron chelators of minimal dimensions provide ferric iron to C. jejuni with equal or greater efficiency than enterobactin.
This study presents a methodological framework for fusing optical and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data at the pixel level with manifolds to improve ULC classification.
Even so, the methodological naturalist will insist, such theories are still synthetic theories about the natural world, answerable in the last instance to the tribunal of a posteriori empirical data.
This seems entirely in accord with methodological naturalism philosophy is in the business of assessing and developing synthetic theories of the world.
This makes room for methodological naturalists to insist that most primary philosophical concerns are synthetic and a posteriori, even if they imply additional modal claims which are not.
