Abstract
Low reproducibility rates within life science research undermine cumulative knowledge production and contribute to both delays and costs of therapeutic drug development. An analysis of past studies indicates that the cumulative (total) prevalence of irreproducible preclinical research exceeds 50%, resulting in approximately US28,000,000,000 (US8B)/year spent on preclinical research that is not reproducible—in the United States alone. We...
