The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Lost in translation: animal models and clinical trials in cancer treatment. (2014, background): “Moreover, the laboratory environment can have a significant effect on experimental results, as stress is a common factor in caged mice [16].”
From house mouse to mouse house: the behavioural biology of free-living Mus musculus and its implications in the laboratory (2004, background): “Different human experimenters can also have a significant effect on the results of mouse nociception tests, possibly as a result of handling style (Chesler et al., 2002): and it is easy to imagine how significant this must be for this small, touch-sensitive, naturally-predated animal.”
Environmental standardization: cure or cause of poor reproducibility in animal experiments? (2009, background): “and in multifactorial analyses of large datasets within laboratorie”
Applications of machine learning in animal behaviour studies (2017, unknown): “ML was used in a comparative assessment of welfare across multiple laboratory populations of mice (Chesler et al., 2002) permitting a wide range of potential explanatory factors, each with diverse distribution, to be considered simultaneously as well as the interactions between them.”
