User Centric conducts user testing at ASCO annual meeting in Chicago, IL

A user testing team led by Bob Schumacher and Melinda McElheny attended the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) on Saturday, June 2nd at McCormick Place in downtown Chicago. The ASCO Annual Meeting is considered the premier educational and scientific event in the oncology community, with over 30,000 oncology professionals attending from around the world. Twenty-two oncologists from the United States and abroad participated in the test and provided feedback about several aspects of the ASCO.org Web site. This website usability test was motivated by the ultimate goal of increasing the ease with which the oncology community shares information.
