The crisis of Reproducibility in Research refers to the fact that almost 3 out of 4 scientists struggle to reproduce their own results.

This results in lost time, money and failures to earn Investigational New Drug (IND) approval required by FDA before advancing a product to Phase 1 clinical trials.
