Problem Statement
I am a patient who needs to register and submit my test samples, but I find the current online registration form tedious and confusing. When I’m unwell or in a hurry, filling out a long, unclear for makes me anxious and unsure of the relevance of my personal data.
I need a simple, trustworthy, and straightforward form that helps me complete my registration quickly and confidently and gives me reassurance throughout the testing process.
Empathy Map
To gain a deeper understanding of user needs and behaviours, I conducted both remote and in-person user interviews and usability tests with four participants of different age groups, genders, tech literacy levels, and professional backgrounds. My goal was to uncover the main pain points of the current registration form and identify what users value, notice, and struggle with while completing it.
