Drug discovery for nervous system disorders is really challenging. We think early/rapid in vivo testing with zebrafish will accelerate the drug development cycle for conserved targets. Check out our proof-of-principle pilot study and virtual drug discovery pipeline (tinyurl.com/3whr23hs). #Skytorial

The first one is not a test of replicability. It is a test of generalization. It is important to stop conflating these.
Just had a meeting yesterday with a team (2 labs) where team 1 tried to first replicate findings of team 2 but used different systems and couldn't do it. Then they used the same system and replicated the original finding beautifully. But now we're curious about why the other systems are different
