Confused about masters project
Yes, you could ask your question, but you could also ask a different one as well. &quot;What do these dying cells really tell us and can we gain some scientific insight from that?&quot;
I suspect that you could formulate it better, but the idea that a &quot;failed experiment&quot; yields nothing is false. Negative data is still data. The fact that something doesn't work is still, in some cases, valuable scientific information.
I can't say for sure that this is the case here, of course, but it might be worth exploring it with your advisor.
