Some suggestions for improvement as the article is expanded:

• Template:Infobox Scientist should be added
• Photograph should be added from a source with a free license
• Needs copy edit to use Wikipedia style
• Lead needs expanding and should include standard biographical details
• Article should be divided into appropriate subheadings
• Information on research should be expanded and references required
• References should be added, preferably in the inline format
• External links present which could be used to expand article

Thanks for your comments. I agree that the article definitely need to be more synthetic and cite more sources. Chaudeau ( talk) 21:18, 25 June 2014 (UTC). reply
