There are so many factors impacting pre-clinical to clinical translation. Increasing transparency in our methodology and data availability are some key factors.
Check out rodent touchscreen open science resources: MouseBytes.ca and TouchscreenCognition.org
Another paper lacking important details. 😒🙄
Mouse strain is just as important as sex!
Please make sure when writing and reviewing papers that details are available to allow others to replicate the study!
