Plan an experiment

Study design

Design the next experiment before browsing the card ledger.

Search a gene, generate a bounded scaffold, or open one of three recommended examples. The planner does not rank candidates or upgrade evidence levels.

No gene selected.

Recommended examples: ZNF133 · CPEB1 · GFOD2.

Planner visual builder

Turn one gene into a bounded experiment route.

The planner is a CONSORT-style research workflow: it resolves a gene, shows the frozen evidence state, exposes the blocking gap, selects the current assay route and lists the registration fields still open.

BoundaryThis builder does not rank candidates, change evidence levels, compute target scores, infer therapeutic direction or make disease-prediction claims.
