This implies a major overhaul of our current navigation and transitioning from EMBL-EBI's black bar to a pan-EMBL approach, bridging the gap between embl.org and ebi.ac.uk, as well as serve users better in making sense of EMBL-EBI website's information architecture.
As a visitor on the EMBL-EBI website, I would like to:
Get a clear idea of the areas EMBL-EBI is involved in Navigate to different parts of the website from Homepage Find my way back to the Homepage or to a page I started my navigation at Be able to identify without difficulty all menus and navigation cues See consistency between main navigation and footer Use the megamenu as an expanded view of what the website has to offer Understand the full extent of global search on the EMBL-EBI website
