 * Per the list provided by User:Allen3 here, I stopped by to check for compliance with Wikipedia's sourcing guidelines for medical text. This article is about an institution, and I don't see anything in the proposed hooks that engages MEDRS; that is the extent of my review, and I will leave source verification, copyvio checking, etc to other DYK reviewers.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg This article is a five-fold expansion and is new enough and long enough. I added an extra reference for the hook and decided that, although there are certain similarities in phrasing between the article and its main source, these are either reasonable or are direct quotations and as such are placed in inverted commas in the article.
