Designing complex systems for clinical scientists
Creating a clinical decision support system for cancer interpretation poses significant challenges. In this talk Laura and Kristoff from Genomics England will share our experiences of designing for a highly specialised niche audience, navigating unconventional constraints, designing with complex data, and ultimately how we had to re-evaluate our design instincts to deliver an intuitive system that works for Clinical Scientists.

Mapping complexity – creating a framework for growth
Have you ever started at a company and asked, “What does the service look like? Is there a map?” only to see people squirm and go, “Yeah, it would be great, we don’t have that right now.”

Over his career Jason has joined so many companies that don’t have an overall picture of the service they are delivering which has lead to mis-alignment, duplication of work and delays while people and teams get an understanding of the service they are delivering and looking to improve.

During his 4 years at Babylon Health, Jason Bootle led the Service Design team working on creating a flexible framework of maps that improved alignment and communication but also fostered ownership and innovation not only for the research and design teams, but clinical, product and commercial.

In this presentation, he will share the process the team went through and the learnings in creating these assets.
