“A clever person can manipulate facts to mislead his or her constituents. However, a clever person can never modify the scientific truth because it contains empirical information which is impossible to contradict.”
Saaif Alam

“When conducting research, always formulate a strong hypothesis, create an organized methodology and develop a pragmatic solution. If you follow these strategies, your research theory can maximize benefits and minimize costs for targeted audiences in real life settings.”
Saaif Alam
