That’s true, software for biology tends to be terribly, almost comically bad, with one-off file formats, brittle data interchange, and impossible-to-maintain code being the norm. With user interface and ergonomics being the most neglected aspect. Why do you think that is?
Surely there is plenty of money in biology these days to hire a good designers to design good user experiences. Surely better user experience for biology software would lead to better understanding of biological systems and better outcomes in bioengineering.
Where are the polished, powerful design tools for biology like those that exist for other fields like online advertising that routinely process and distill huge amounts of lightly-structured data?
