Resurrecting previously published but neglected hypotheses that have merit might be overlooked because it would seem to lack the novelty of "discovery" -- but the potential value of so doing is hardly arguable. Finding neglected hypotheses may be not only of great practical value, but also affords the opportunity to study the structure of such hypotheses in the hope of illuminating the more general problem of hypothesis generation.}, journal={DISCO: Journal of Biomedical Discovery and Collaboration}, author={Swanson, Don R.}, year={2011}, month={Apr.}, pages={34–47} }
