Yield in organ on a chip

This post is about “YIELD” in organ on a chip systems. Before you start collaborating, make sure you communicate well about the experiment yield. Try to discuss:
– the yield of the system,
– whether this yield changes when you do more experiments, and
– whether it changes if somebody else does the experiment

The image makes a comparison between different yields you may want to know.

Of course a higher yield is better, but a more important point is to DISCUSS IT BEFORE YOU START. This way you can adjust your expectations about the outcome.
Also, try to ask where the inefficiencies come from, is it technical or biological?
