User-center redesign of the Biotechgate portal: a remote usability testing case 
study

This thesis is dedicated to the user-centered redesign of the subscriber 
section of Biotechgate, a global life sciences business development database. 
The redesign project fits into a global restructuration and redesign process 
initiated to divide the one current website of the database into a public 
website and a subscribers-only section in order to improve its global 
usability. 
The objective of the current thesis is to elaborate a new, usability-optimized 
concept for the core features of the Biotechgate subscriber section in the form 
of an interactive prototype, applying the principles, methods and best practice 
of user-centered design.
The design development process is structured into four phases: user needs 
assessment, requirements definition, prototype development and usability 
evaluation. Usability evaluation is conducted in the form of remote moderated 
and automated usability tests with an international panel of Biotechgate 
(potential) end-users. In addition, the prototyping process is combined with 
agile (remote) usability testing.
The result of this thesis is an interactive prototype of the core components of 
the new Biotechgate subscriber section and a set of recommendations for further 
design optimization.
