Description
Dian Mitrayani and co-authors dig into a research center's top bottleneck in a 2026 conference abstract. Users of a clinical and translational science institute kept naming the same top barrier in yearly surveys: they could not find the resources and services meant to help their research.
The team ranked barriers by a multicriteria method, then invited the twenty-six users who flagged this one most strongly to talk. Ten agreed to in-depth interviews. A thematic analysis sorted their complaints into shared sub-barriers, from scattered listings to unclear contacts, and drew out fix ideas. The exercise turns a vague frustration into a work list the institute can act on.
