Rezumat	A crossover design is an experimental design in which each participant receives all treatments under investigation, but in a different sequence and across separate time periods. Each subject thus acts as their own control, which substantially reduces between-subject variability and allows efficient treatment comparisons with smaller sample sizes. The approach has been central to clinical pharmacology and comparative research since the mid-20th century, with foundational methodology codified by Senn (2002) and Jones & Kenward (2014).	The Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) is a parametric experimental design and hypothesis-testing framework that isolates and removes a known source of heterogeneity — called a block — before comparing treatment means. Introduced by Ronald A. Fisher in his 1935 monograph The Design of Experiments, it remains the foundational blocked design in agricultural, clinical, and industrial research.
