laboratory settings
Controlled experimental spaces
Laboratory settings are controlled environments—typically research facilities, clinics, or academic institutions—where experiments, tests, or studies are conducted.
The phrase appears most often in scientific writing to distinguish findings from real-world conditions: The drug showed promise in laboratory settings but failed in clinical trials.
Results obtained in laboratory settings may not translate to everyday situations.
