The field of this invention is personalized medicine. A tissue sample is taken from a patient, optionally amplified, and injected into animals, such as mice in a vivarium. Animals receive one or more therapeutic treatments. Animal behaviors are collected, measured and timed using fully automatic, continuous monitoring using per-cage sensors, where behavior recording is free of human, manual actions. Observed behavior is consistent with healthy or unhealthy behaviors specific to the injection site, typically in a specific organ or location in an organ, such as the brain. The injection site may be consistent with the source site from the patient. Both positive and negative baseline behaviors are collected, typically using the same device or method. Treatment selection is responsive to differences between treated and untreated animals, and between treatments, comparing to both the positive and negative baselines, using multi-dimensional analysis, including side effects.
