| Abstract | Scientists who work with materials such as cell lines, roundworms, zebrafish, and mice are grappling with the question of how to consider sex as a biological variable in laboratory models. This project aims to improve rigor, reproducibility, and precision in the study of biological sex in laboratory models and to promote constructive dialogue across biological fields and other related disciplines. This project investigates the conceptual foundations of research paradigms for the study of biologi |
