To showcase the organization’s members, they maintain a website to highlight their members’ accomplishments. Specifically, there is a subset of pages dedicated to listing the publications and patents created by VTCDD members relevant to the organization. These pages have not been updated since 2017 and were created by a site contributor that had minimal experience utilizing Virginia Tech’s content management system. Our goal as a team was to create a solution to better showcase the patent and publication accomplishments of the VTCDD. Starting the project, we had complete creative liberty when it came to presenting the VTCDD publications and patents. Initially, the Publications page and the Patents page were endlessly scrolling static pages, making the sites poorly navigable. The publications only listed the citation, which made it difficult to quickly parse information from, especially since there were a variety of different citation formats. The site coordinator had to manually add new publications and patents to the site, which was a tedious process. With some of the site’s areas of improvement in mind, our goal was to make the sites more dynamic, and standardize the information through the use of filterable, paginated tables. The deliverables consist of a final report, a web-scraper for Publication data, and web pages for the VTCDD site created on Ensemble: one for the Publications page, one for the Patents page, and another for the home page. The report shows our progress throughout our project lifecycle, ranging from ideation to testing. There are manuals for users and developers to ensure the web pages are properly maintained. Lastly, we discuss lessons learned and ideas for future development.en-USVTCDDCenter of Drug DiscoveryPatentsPublicationsPresentation
