Cell Growth Tracking for Scientific Experiments
Concept Design Prototyping Implementation Support
I supported a small biotech startup to design a UI that visualises cell growth for scientific experiments. In a very agile sprint format we developed a highly scalable solution that enables tracking of multiple simultanous experiments to optimise cell research and reduce errors.
Long prep, fast sprint.
Design Process
Onboarding a complex topic
Even tough the actual engagement lasted only for about a month, I had consultated Phio for more than a year, sometimes just sparring, sometimes a bit more hands-on, for example while supervising their thesis writing student. This led to a fundamental knowledge of the subject matter which allowed me to work fast and efficient once we actually sat together.

Scaling at a scientific level
Something about tracking multiple experiments in multiple ways, leading to a quickly growing dashboard that needs to keep a good overview in order to be usable.
2
Design to Development
Something about working closely with the development team, weekly calls and good documentation as well as ticketing which led to a quick and swift realisation of the designs.

Results
Originally just managing a master student thesis, the collaboration scaled very quickly to a successful project that has now been implemented.
The new design helped the startup grow a fundamental user base, score more funding and served as a platform to develop new features on.
“Simon hat nicht nur ein Design geschaffen, das den Umgang mit komplexen wissenschaftlichen Daten revolutioniert, sondern auch eine skalierbare Architektur entwickelt, die es uns ermöglicht, neue Features und Angebote nahtlos zu integrieren. Besonders beeindruckend war, wie er anspruchsvolle wissenschaftliche Prozesse in ein klar strukturiertes, benutzerfreundliches Interface übersetzt hat. Simon's Arbeit hat unser Produkt nicht nur auf ein neues Level gehoben, sondern auch eine solide Grundlage für zukünftige Innovationen geschaffen.”
