Abstract

This study revisits microfluidic drug screening through the lens of multi-omic analysis. Using equipment available in most teaching laboratories, we replicate and extend prior findings across 1053 experimental runs. We observe a statistically significant effect (p < 0.04) that persists across all tested conditions. We discuss limitations and outline directions for follow-up work at the undergraduate level.
