What I'm really curious about is how many of these experiments and trials didn't work in mice but would work in humans.

it's plausible that some would: chocolate and coffee are toxic in mice but not humans.

unfortunately, we need mice models for safety for now.

hopefully, computational models and personalized medicine will change this in the future.

One would hope that in vitro studies with human cell lines would identify those possibilities.
