  1. I believe this paper was a discovery-driven paper because throughout the reading, there would be no reference back to anything in the beginning. It seemed like while they were finding out these different virulence factors and possibly different treatments of MRSA, they kept trying to find out more mechanisms that were being affected and anything else in relation to the exposure of ranalexin.
  2. The advantages of both kind of research is that there are going to be findings no matter what. Although the findings that support a proposed hypothesis might be more rewarding. The disadvantage of discovery-driven research is the possibility of not being able to conclude anything substantial especially if you have nothing to go off of other than discoveries during research.
