I don't think making experiments more stringent is the answer here (btw, I've spent a lot of time trying to build simulations of biological systems). Usually, we aren't doing the right experiment in the first place; this is hard to figure out ahead of time. Again, read the ACSB that I linked to below... it's probably the most nuanced and interesting discussion on the subject
Yes, thanks that was a good read. It seems we need a "Map" of biological sciences, in which every study could be a 'pin' in a particular location , signifying that 'this study studies this very particular problem here'. Maybe that would help figure out where are the biggest gaps. Unfortunately, most studies broaden the impact of their results too much to the point that reading the paper abstract can be misleading. Maybe people should just publish their results, but not be allowed to make any claims about them; let others and the community make those claims.
