Use of the phrase "working hypothesis" goes back to at least the 1850s.

Strategies to optimize resource utilization and reimbursement models have been discussed. Technical limitations, such as the development of more specific and sensitive imaging agents, improvement of imaging resolution and quality, and the integration of different imaging modalities, require ongoing research and technological advancements.
Such partnerships enable ongoing research to be better sustained during periods of crisis (e.g., the COVID-19 pandemic) and new research can build on existing collaborations. From an ethical point of view, equality in partnerships is also 'the right thing to do' and necessary to prevent the exploitation and abuse of researchers in more ...
