Abstract

We developed a web application prototype to collect cancer-related family health history data from clinical study participants and patients of Fox Chase Cancer Center. We conducted an initial round of usability testing by observing participants using the tool and recorded their experiences via a short survey. This process identified several issues with the current design using limited resources.
