I've completed the main storyline and am returning to all the chapters to 5 star them.  It was going great until Chapter 8: One species' trash.  I got a patient that required nanoscopy but it's not a room that's available.

I did try restarting and nanoscopy is still missing.

CS Edit: Player reproduction steps for this bug: 

What I did to cause this bug:

  1. Beat all chapters 1 - 11 story mode with only 3 stars, exiting as soon as prompted.
  2. Starting with chapter 1, play through each chapter to 5 stars.
  3. When returning to chapter 8, nanoscopy was missing, even though at that point I should have it since I had completed the game.

Workaround:

  1. Restart story mode for chapter 8.
  2. Play through and beat story mode.
  3. When prompted, stay in game to enter sandbox and attempt 5 stars.
  4. Nanoscopy should get added as an available room.

I have since restarted the game several times and 5 starred other levels.  Each time I start the game I check in on Chapter 8.  The nanoscopy continues to not be available.  This isn't to say I expected it to be fixed, only that subsequent restarts and loads does not fix the the issue.

I restarted the story for chapter 8 and stayed in the game all the way through 5 star.  This second playthrough nanoscopy was missing until I beat the story.  Then, after beating the story and saying I wanted to stay to get 5 stars, nanoscopy was added to my rooms.  It was missing until then.

  1. Beat all chapters 1 - 11 story mode with only 3 stars, exiting as soon as prompted.

Hello ! Just a clarification on the fix = ) It's normal to be missing Nanoscopy in Chapter 8 while restarting story mode as it's introduced in Chapter 9. However when you enter Sandbox mode, you get back all the room you've unlocked.

What wasn't normal was for a patient to spawn for said room. We found a code path that could eventually allow a condition needing a non available room to spawn, and we fixed that part. So hopefully that shouldn't happen anymore on next patch. In the meantime if that happen again, you can dismiss such patient, clicking on them, in the info panel in the bottom left there is a dismiss button.
