    This poster helped me understand immunoinformatics in a simple way. The layout was clear and easy to follow from top to bottom. I liked how the purpose and importance sections explained why this field matters for vaccines and immune research. The visuals and charts made the information feel more real and connected to real science. The tools section showed how technology and biology work together. Overall, this poster made a complex topic feel approachable and interesting, and it helped me appreciate how data plays a role in modern biomedical science.
