Completely agree. Another issue plaguing some animal based neuroscience research is shoddy sample size. Understandable, given that some of the experiments are so damn challenging, but in the long run this does no favors to reproducibility.

That being said, for both of these issues, grants should award more money to fund the expansion in research protocol. Expecting any change without additional resources doesn't help.
