    Filed January 19, 2015

    “It bears reminding that the trial court's role as gatekeeper [under Daubert] is not intended to serve as a replacement for the adversary system.” Pipitone v. Biomatrix, Inc., 288 F.3d 239, 250 (5 Cir.th 2002); accord, Makinen v. City of New York, 2014 WL 5036747, at *15 (S.D.N.Y. Sept. 30, 2014). Even after Daubert, “[v]igorous cross-examination, presentation of contrary evidence, and careful instruction on the burden of proof are the traditional and appropriate means of attacking shaky but admissible evidence.”
