Gymnosperms: An Unexpected Contribution to Cancer

First of all I would like to congratulate all of my friends and peers from General Biology Two, Section D for publishing their articles. The effort and time put into such well designed infographics should be applauded and recognized. I hope you are all proud.
Secondly I would like to honor Dr. Terry Shackleford for her persistent editing and active engagement throughout the research project. She made the research project feel less like an assignment and more like a self accomplishment.
I would also like to sincerely thank my close friends and family for their endless support and encouragement throughout this time in my life.
Lastly, I would like to honor both Dr. Terry Shackleford and Dr. Bradford Whitener for presenting me with such an opportunity, this would not have been possible without the two of you and your support. Thank you so much.

    Hi Hunter! I am genuinely impressed by how much information you were able to fit into your infographic. I learned so much about Gymnosperms and cancer and their relationship. The publication is both informative and engaging, making it a great read. I was also impressed by the layout and color scheme. Thank you for this publication.

    This publication is informative and engaging, making it an excellent read. It serves as a warning to be vigilant, which I appreciate. The overall presentation is neat and well-organized, despite having a lot of text. I didn’t find it overwhelming to read at all. Overall, great job and congratulations on a well-executed piece!

    I think one of the main things I like about this piece of work is the presentation of its content in a square format. Most infographics tend to have a rectangular shape, which is consistent with the typical profile of any book page. But a square arrangement of the information seems to work pretty well, also. I like how everything is condensed in a space where the reader can perceive it all at once. The selection of colors and the inclusion of images are well-thought and add incredibly to the overall appearance of the infographic.

    There is so many earthly resources that we don’t consider that can contribute to a human greatly . I really enjoyed reading this article and learning how Gymnosperms can help with cancer since researchers for a long time have been looking for a cure that they can start instantly. Very well write article!

    Nature helps in many ways. At times we don’t even know how helpful and necessary something is. Gymnosperms are something from nature that help with cancer, a disease that is deadly and hurtful. With the possibilities that nature could do for humans it is important to keep our plants, earth, and everything in it safe and accessible to all and to take care for future references.

    This is an excellent infographic on a subject I had never heard of before. The article not only does an excellent job of explaining gymnosperms and how they actively contribute to cancer. Not only is the information useful and well-written, but the infographic’s design, colors, and images effectively convey the infographic’s message.

    Hello, Hunter! To begin with, congratulations on your publishing. Your infographic piqued my interest because I had no idea Gymnosperms contributed to cancer. It was great to learn more about this subject, and I think you did an excellent job with the infographic. One thing I will say is that I felt it was a little packed, but I understand that these issues demand a lot of expertise to be present. Everything was wonderfully done, including the theme. Congratulations.

    I thought this article was very insightful and did an excellent job of educating me about the link between cancer and gymnosperms, and how these plants contribute to the furthering of advancement in chemotherapy. Further, I thought it was an excellent example of how an infographic should look, and the color scheme and graphics were all very cohesive looking.
