Balancing Clinical Rigor with Approachability

Recruiting adolescents for clinical trials requires a delicate balance. The interface needs to be professional enough to gain parental trust while being engaging and un-scary enough for the participants.

Immersive “Space” Interactions

I implemented a playful, space-themed UI featuring a cartoon astronaut and a vibrant planetary system. To make the experience feel interactive rather than static, I used a combination of GSAP and CSS transforms and implemented them thoughtfully so they don’t interfere with the information on the website.

Floating Planets: I used a mouse-tracking effect so the planets subtly float around in response to the user’s cursor movements, simulating a zero-gravity environment.

Astronaut Protagonist: I implemented sticky scrolling so the astronaut follows along as you scroll.

Atmospheric Effects: I used CSS animations to create a subtle, twinkling effect for the star-filled background.

Constraints

• Internationalization (i18n) & RTL Remediation: Engineered a fully localized experience for a global audience, managing complex script-specific layouts and bidirectional text flow for Hebrew and Russian users.
