The diversity of genome amplification options underscores the importance of having a
clear experimental question in mind before starting a single - cell sequencing project.
But an
important experimental question lingered: could the cancer metastasis seen in Nr4a1 knockout mice have anything to do with potential loss of Nr4a1 in a closely related group of cells called macrophages, which use Nr4a1 to control inflammation?
The labs are fully equipped so that the entire range of state - of - the - art immunological, biochemical, and molecular biologic techniques can be applied to
various experimental questions.
This is
an experimental question.
«I was willing to develop new or novel protocols to get
an experimental question answered.
«The students who took the lead on the project helped in all aspects of the research, including framing
the experimental question, organizing data collection, analyzing the results, and ultimately submitting a manuscript for publication,» McKone says.
The project began with a frustration many researchers have experienced: wanting to ask and answer
experimental questions, but not having the tools needed to do so.
My survey included one
experimental question and three universal questions, with each providing a nuanced understanding of whose voices state education policy makers value when making teacher evaluation policy decisions.
To analyze
the experimental question data, I modeled state education policy makers» policy preferences (0 = support; 1 = oppose) as a function of the control / treatment group to which they were randomly assigned.
Respondents were randomly assigned to one of the two wording conditions when they reached
the experimental question.
In addition, two respondents assigned to the «climate change» condition were excluded: one because of missing data on
the experimental question and one because of missing data on the political self - identification question.
Four respondents terminated the questionnaire prior to
the experimental question.
