Note from the page creator
I don't know much at all about psychiatry, and this is the first WP bio I've written. I did my best to source and cite everything, following
WP:BLP, but I would not be surprised to learn I'd committed major or minor errors. Please take a look and fix the article if it needs fixing.
Also, I am aware that Dr. Cannon's
WP:NOTABILITY is not completely beyond question. The relevant guideline is
WP:NACADEMICS, and I believe she passes under criteria 1 (T-R, Cassels) and 2 (RAMI award) of that guideline.
