Biologists and bioinformaticians heavily rely on data portals and repositories accessible through web application. While they mostly agree that the data is valuable, they find the interfaces hard to use and non-intuitive. In this paper we present a user-centered design of a database for classification and annotation for major and minor introns in various species. Our design is based on surveying and interviewing minor intron researchers and comparing the features of existing databases. In addition to its ease of use, the proposed database, Major and Minor Intron Annotation Database (MMIAD) offers high flexibility in querying and downloading subsets of information that interest the user in multiple commonly used file formats. © Proceedings of the 14th IADIS International Conference Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction 2020, IHCI 2020 and Proceedings of the 13th IADIS International Conference Game and Entertainment Technologies 2020, GET 2020 - Part of the 14th Multi Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems, MCCSIS 2020.
