The lab is not incredibly low throughput but also most of the experiments look at a single modality. Take a cell viability or FACS assay - while some additional measurements could be taken or analysed - most of the time the scientist will look at a single parameter. In a separate assay the cell (other passage/day) will be undertaken another assay resulting in nearly incomparable data.

The solution: Multimodal data and getting more info on experiments setup (often a bit of voodoo and not written down properly).
