Information architecture
After conducting research with techs and execs, we aligned on a simplified list of tasks and requirements and developed a new IA.
Dashboard layout
The dashboard was identified as the key new screen required for effective remote testing.
Primary navigation
The new menu enabled quick navigation between experiments and aggregated content.









Build, run, and results
Simplifying the experimentation workflow.

Simplifying the experimentation workflow.
Build
Within the Build function, we introduced a 3-part experiment design tool: Design, Manage, and Summary.
Run
Once an experiment is set to run, users can check-in on the status both on-device and remotely.
Results
Finally, users can view test results by selecting the Results tab within the chosen experiment.

Experiment design
On-device experiment design was simplified to a 4-step creation process: Overview, Conditions, Fluids, and Steps.
Running an experiment
There were 8 defined phases to running an experiment: Sync, Prime, Sort, Dose, Lyse, RT, Harvest, and Results.
Supporting tools
In addition to the various states for viewing an experiment, we introduced instrument status tools to review and modify conditions.
