Hello Anna and Elizabeth, this infographic was well made. The graphics used made it easier to understand the information given. What I had previously learned about human subjects was that most of the time it was unethical, so many practices were stopped. It is nice to learn that there are up-to-date protocols and that the IRB exists to ensure that the subject knows and consents to the research they are participating in.

I loved this infographic! It was informative and engaging. I liked how you initially gave a belief background and explained the actual process behind what people who decide to be a research subject do thoroughly. I always thought human testing had a bad notion, but I never saw it through this perspective. Making me realize human testing is not bad, it was just being misused in the past and with no regulations. Great infographic!

This is a good example of what a good infographic should look like. Each element found within its composition seems to play a specific role while contributing to the informative function of the general content. The selection of colors is extremely good. The pastel tones give it a feeling of calm and seriousness that the subject deserves without being tired or boring. This is a pretty good balance. The selection of the images and the size they occupy also seems to be a good choice. Bravo. Well done!

After having heard about some experiments that scientists conducted pre-World War II on different peoples, I am all the more relived that we have provisions to uphold “ethics”. I fear what we would have without standards. I also like that this post includes ways human test subjects advance research too, including the creation of antibodies. It’s not ALL bad, but it just needs to be monitored.

I enjoyed reading and learning from your infographic. It was a delightful experience. The carefully selected colors, visuals, and layout immediately caught my eye, and I was particularly impressed by the comprehensive coverage of human subject research. The information was both enlightening and thought-provoking.

This is a great infographic for those in and out of the medical research field. Those who feel questionable about research that needs human subjects might feel better after reading this. I only knew about some of the topics listed on the infographic, especially not all the checks and balances required for this kind of research. Congrats on your nomination!

Super interesting work. It is really interesting to learn about a different way in which researchers have become accustomed to patients. With the fact that numerous individuals struggle with so many sicknesses or diseases. There is just so much to learn from individuals themselves and not treat them as simply test subjects but as human beings. Very nice work I enjoyed your infographic and the information was very easy to digest.

It was truly refreshing to come across such a well-crafted infographic. The choice of colors and composition were visually captivating. The depth of information provided on human subject research was commendable and having previously discussed this topic, along with the effects of those who were involved, in an ethics class, the portrayal here was insightful. I look forward to seeing more creative works from them in the future.
