There’s a lot of discussion these days about the “reproducibility crisis” in science and how that may be delaying the medical advances we seek for ourselves and our loved ones. Today we’re going to talk about what may be the number one reason for why more than half of the research findings from animal studies are questionable.

Dr. Ken Henderson, Senior Director for Laboratory Services with Charles River Laboratories, will break it down for us today…on GetReal!
