Professionally, I have a personal Chair in Neuropharmacology at a UK University. Doctorate from University of Oxford and an Elected Fellow of the Physiological Society and British Pharmacological Society, member of the British Neuroscience Association and (U.S.) Biophysical Society. I lecturer on ion channels, ion channel diseases, Veterinary Neuroscience and Veterinary Neuropharmacology. My homepage is here. I have a Science Blog, intended to make science accessible to non-scientists here: Science Blog, and communicate with the public through my Twitter account @RichardBJ1 Am able to make a "statement" here?: I am disappointed that more and more IMHO, Wikipedia is becoming a vehicle for people to show how clever they are with extremely technical explanations of (often) simple concepts. I would personally like all Wikipedia entries to begin with simple explanations in lay terms, then below this, progressively more technical and complex explanations. Frequently, the opening paragraphs line of Wikipedia reads like the abstract of a PhD thesis. Sadly, I feel in a minority here :-(
