Final Experiment
The time for the final experiment has come. Full sample size, better data acquisition equipment, and 3D quality of images, displayed on the stereoscopic wall. The experiment’s size is nothing like the most reliable clinical experiments, but appropriate to the resources of a PhD research project. Still, enough to prove the hypotheses true or false.We Read More
