(2) I received the National Medal of Science in 2014 not 2012. The Award was apparently approved in 2012, but I did not receive until 2014. This has created confusion in peoples' minds.Judith Klinman

replace She earned her A.B. from University of Pennsylvania in 1962 and Ph.D. from the same university in 1966. with She earned her A.B. in chemistry from University of Pennsylvania in 1962 and Ph.D. in physical organic chemistry from the same university in 1966. She joined the Fox Chase Cancer Research Institute in 1968 to carry out postdoctoral research with Irwin Rose, being promoted to Staff Scientist in 1972.Cicinyoda (talk) 23:34, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

I am Judith Klinman's assistant so want to disclose that conflict of interest, but her entry doesn't have much info. How do we add factual info without getting flagged? And what if there's no way to confirm that info that I can find? For example, Judith was chair of the Chemistry Department at UC Berkeley but the website doesn't list past chairs. Can I link to her CV? I've been reading all the info about how to do this, but I am still confused. Thank you for any guidance.Cicinyoda (talk) 23:55, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

Dr. Klinman's A.B., which would now be referred to as a B.S., is an undergraduate degree, and would not normally be included in the article. References for her Doctorate in Chemistry should come from UPenn. Information on her post-doc work should come from either Fox Chase Cancer Center or Temple University, as they are the Center's affiliate. They are likely to be the repository of information from the Chase Cancer Research Institute. If you have difficulty tracking down these sources please let us know, and we can discuss appropriate alternatives. Regards,  Spintendo  ᔦᔭ   03:10, 1 February 2018 (UTC)

{request edit} Please edit the following in the first paragraph so it is correct: Change: She became the first female science professor at UC Berkeley in 1978. to: She became the first female professor in the physical sciences at UC Berkeley in 1978. Thanks. Cicinyoda (talk) 16:29, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

Edit request, please help
Hi, I requested this awhile ago but no one has made the change. I am Prof. Klinman's assistant but will make the change myself if no one else can because the current info is inaccurate. Please edit the following in the first paragraph so it is correct: Change: She became the first female science professor at UC Berkeley in 1978. to: She became the first female professor in the physical sciences at UC Berkeley in 1978. Thanks.Cicinyoda (talk) 17:24, 13 May 2020 (UTC) ✅ Theroadislong (talk) 17:13, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
