Gaps and questions
Order of menu - 11 March
“In the toolbar, I think Research partnership & collaborations should be first, grants & recognitions second, then projects and after that services & expertise, news and About IIB”
- Should we adjust the heading to be Research Partnerships and Collabs?
- The prototype ideas shifted a bit in terms of what would be in the menu (aka toolbar) but I think we can chat about changing the order which was originally requested
- Content - About us - sections are different - also not sure what the reference at the top is about - copy and paste or an instruction?
“Content Input Form: International Institute of Biosensing (IIB) Webpage
Please provide the following information to assist in the creation of the dedicated webpage for the International Institute of Biosensing (IIB) on the Research Computing site. Your collaboration is crucial in ensuring the accuracy and effectiveness of the webpage content.”
- do we have enough space / will we need breathing room on the design to fit all that content
>> Does all the stuff they want in there now make sense for About us
>>> Might just be wording issues but do we have all the sections covered - it feels like research initiatives does not have a place or is that what we call projects?
>>> lets make sure all the sections have a home, I feel like we have gaps
- Projects “ Most of these projects (past and ongoing) might have their own webpages. It would be nice to have an option to have that as well as the funding and start and finish day. This is actually a link to our EU project:
you can see here that in one page you can see all the necessary info about that project with the required links.
For the past projects adding a short result section and also linked publications could be useful.
>> I think we should allow for linking of Publications here too - that is possibly what she meant with her feedback
- Fellowships - What other funding opportunities exist if its not a fellowship? We have upcoming calls and past calls on the fellowship page
- We have a collaboration sign up on the upcoming calls page but no “apply vibes” - should be apply vs collaborate?
- Same with funding opportunities https://xd.adobe.com/view/dfd5ea62-fc8d-4899-bcc8-e21d83d8b81e-8a86/screen/9084b594-e4c6-4ce8-9c1b-9d6c1c0ca6f2/
- I had a look at the document with changes we received and see we missed the past events part “workshops/webinars/conferences and a link to past events “
>> is that a gap or is it my understanding of the prototype
- I have added more to the quote - its almost double so we need to check it - I don’t think they are going to be happy with the additional cost we previously quoted them 9690 for a 162 hours and we are now sitting on almost 22 K and 246 hours without me adding additional time for meetings, PM and standups
The content that is on the document is not in a useable state and there’s a folder with screenshots for past calls which we would not be able to use in that format either, it would all need to be re-written - should we offer to edit at an additional cost?

- Re Past Event, that is something I missed completely and would need to be added.
- Just adding these links to the content she shared as screenshots:
- https://research.umn.edu/funding-awards/rio-funding-awards/international-institute-biosensing
- https://research.umn.edu/funding-awards/international-institute-biosensing/2023-awardees
- And, here's the link to the OG sitemap they signed off, not sure this is relevant though: https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVNy7k5bs=/
