Embrace heterogeneity to improve reproducibility: A perspective from meta-analysis of variation in preclinical research

2020-10-27

Abstract excerpt

The reproducibility of research results has been a cause of increasing concern to the scientific community. The long-held belief that experimental standardization begets reproducibility has also been recently challenged, with the observation that the reduction of variability within studies can lead to idiosyncratic, lab-specific results that are irreproducible. An alternative approach is to, instead, deliberately...
