Welcome!
Hello, Jjgourley, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:39, 24 January 2018 (UTC)

Continued edits
Hi! I didn't know if you were interested in editing beyond the class - if so, I'd like to encourage you to check Women in Red, a wikiproject that is devoted to expanding coverage on women - women in science and medicine are a definite focus of theirs, so it would be a great place for you to check out!

 * Oh! One last note - be careful of close paraphrasing. I noticed that you worked on the article for Sterk and used this as a source, however some of the material is somewhat closely paraphrased from the source material. There aren't a lot of ways that you can rephrase the content, but please be careful with this since it can be seen as a copyright issue by some if it is too close to the source - even with basic statements about someone's work and accomplishments.
