 //How to achieve fully reproducible research?//
-Research, and particularly reproducible research, is highly complex. Therefore, we need strategies to deal with the essential complexity and reduce the accidential complexity. On a high level, there are three essential concepts.

-  * create metadata during data acquisition
+On a **low(er) level**, there are a number of concepts or best practices that have emerged over the years in the author's lab. More details how to implement these concepts are given in the [[:tools:|{{fa>wrench}}]] [[:tools:|tools]] section.
