The Deadly Sins of Epidemiologic Studies

Acknowledgements: I would like to thank Dr. Lori Boies for helping me immensely in the process of this infographic, specifically when it came to fixing my topic. I am grateful for being given the opportunity to create my first official infographic in a study I have never truly read about until she pushed me a little to find a different story best for my topic. I am also incredibly grateful for Dr. Boies finally convincing me after three years of knowing her to take on this course and potentially a bioinformatics minor. Dr. Boies, thank you so much for everything!

Hello! My name is Franchesca Tinacba, and I am a biology major on the pre-med track. I hope to attend medical school once I graduate in 2025. I enjoy listening to music (ranging from K-POP to the Beatles), watching reality TV shows, and using my Cricut machine at home.

Hi! This was a very fascinating infographic to both look at and learn from. This pairs well with another infographic I had previously learned about academics falsifying evidence and the consequences that follow those who do. This was a great additive to that information. The colors chosen and the way the information was laid out was an excellent choice. Great job and congratulations on your nomination!

Hi Franchesca! This is such a good informative infographic! I honestly have never learned about this before. It is sad and disappointing to know that some researchers improve their outcomes by altering values, especially because they can put a lot of lives at risk for their own benefit. Great infographic though it looks really pleasing to the eye and makes you want to read it and learn more! Congratulations!
