::Hi @[[User:Patricia at GMMB|Patricia at GMMB]], this is solid work. I would recommend two changes: first, drop the second sentence ("He became interested...") since it works more as personable intro to the NYT profile from which it's sourced than as a useful piece of information for Dr. DeRisi's wikipedia page. Secondly, the title of his thesis is somewhat parachuted into place, and I think merits some explanation. I would therefore suggest a rephrase to the effect of:
::DeRisi earned his Ph.D. in Biochemistry from Stanford University in 1999. Working in the laboratory of [[Patrick O. Brown]], he developed methods for the production and use of [[DNA microarrays]] in molecular biology, and his thesis was a genome-wide expression analysis of the budding yeast ''[[S. cerevisiae]]''. Upon graduation, DeRisi accepted a position as a Sandler Fellow at the [[University of California San Francisco]].
::Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia, and for acting with such honesty. Please let me know if you have any further questions. [[User:Solobear89 | <span style="background-color:#45C4B0;color:#ffffff;padding:2px;border-radius:4px 4px 4px 4px">SoloBear</span>]] 00:25, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

List of Awards

I believe the list of awards, while impressive, is currently too long. I am unable to assess which awards are more notable than others, but to shorten the list down to the 3-5 most notable is probably reasonable. Rritterson (talk) 00:41, 23 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Early life and education draft

{{request edit}} has been deprecated. Please change this template call to one of the following:

  • For edit requests relating to a conflict of interest, please use {{edit COI}}.
  • If you are partially-blocked from editing the page, please use {{edit partially-blocked}}.
  • If the page is protected, use one of the following:

    • {{EPER}} for extended-confirmed protected pages
    • {{TPER}} for template-protected pages
    • {{FPER}} for fully-protected pages
    • {{IAER}} for interface admin protected pages

If you simply need to ask for help in making an edit, please change the template to {{help me}}.

Hello! I work for GMMB, a communications firm that has been contracted by the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub to update Mr. DeRisi's article. This makes me a COI editor, which means I can't edit the article directly. I will instead put forward edit requests on this Talk page, for conflict-free editors to review. If you would like to know more about my relationship with the Biohub, please see my user page.

I have drafted an Early life and education section for this article. I think it could replace the first paragraph under the current article's Life section, which doesn't have any citations. My goal with Early life and education was to cover:

  • Mr. DeRisi's place of birth, secondary education, and the formation of his research interests
  • His college degrees, both undergrad and graduate
  • His pre-professional work on DNA microarrays and entree into the professional realm as a Sandler Fellow at UCSF

You can view the full section draft using this link. I'm aware this article has issues beyond the ones I've tried to address with my draft. It could probably use a top-to-bottom reorganization, as it's composed solely of a Life section and a citationless Awards one. But I didn't want to overwhelm editors with a full article redraft. I figured this Early life and education bit would be a good place to start. If someone wants to jump in and review this request, I'm here to field any feedback you might have. Thanks so much!
