Peer Review[edit]

So far it looks like the article has a lot of good information in it. I have a few small suggestions to maybe improve it though. One is there are a couple of phrases and topics that can be blue linked to provide a little more information to the reader "bang's disease" could be linked to the article on brucellosis for example. It might even be useful to mention that bang's disease is just another name for brucellosis. I'm not sure if it would be possible to even find any information on her later life but if you could then that could be an interesting final section prior to the awards. I'm not entirely sure if it would be relevant to the artice but finding, naming, explaining, etc. some of the papers that she wrote could add some interesting content to the article. Best of luck.

The article does provide good quality information, besides a few typos there aren't too many corrections that need to be made to the article by it's self. What could be added is a little more on her life and life works, maybe breaking it into multiple sections and ellaborating on her specific contributions might make it easier for someone to understand who is vague on the topic of microbiology. Also it sounded interesting how she came down with an illness, maybe that could give you more to talk about. Micahguthrie (talk) 19:58, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Date and place of birth[edit]

The Sun says here that she ".. was born in New Jersey on August 2, 1971 and then raised in Bristol." Are there some better sources? Martinevans123 (talk) 15:38, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
