Amid growing concerns about the poor design of animal experiments and its implications for the translatability of experimental results, Michael F. W. Festing thinks it's time we do something about it.

Introductory quantitative skills required to conduct experimental research and analyze resulting data. Principles of measurement, modeling of experimental data, and statistical design of experiments.

Sound experimental design is of vital importance when conducting any scientific experiment. Choices made at the design stage have the potential to drastically impact the results of any study. A strong ...

The application of experimental design methods to practical engineering problems is illustrated by an example involving road tests to measure how elevation affects octane requirements of automobiles.

The landscape of gene editing applications is expanding quickly. More and more, researchers are faced with choosing the right tools and protocols for genome engineering, including overexpressing ...

One of the hottest debates in evolutionary biology concerns the origin of behavior: is it genetically encoded or do animals and birds copy their parents or other individuals? A classic experiment ...
