About This Quote
The concept of a “highly organized research is guaranteed to produce nothing new” is a clever way of saying that a highly organized research process will produce the same results as previously published studies. In fact, new research often avoids high-level organization and instead focuses on basic research that illustrates new facts, data, or concepts.
