style

The article is nice to read, but not encyclopaedic. It reads at some places like a eulogy to Elizabeth Gould (e.g. "she works for many hours and expects the same from her co-workers") and further it is not necessary to mention her academic title in every sentence (WP:NAMES).

x2 exactly right criticism.

seriously, wtf at the breathless praise? sounds like a starry-eyed undergrad wrote it.71.103.149.123 (talk) 05:37, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Focus On Findings!

Elizabeth Gould is a pioneer in the field of neurogenesis and was one of the first researchers to establish that neurons in the adult brain can divide. Elizabeth Gould broke a major existing paradigm. There should be more focus on the impact of the findings and less of a story telling.

Citations!!!!! So many factual statements in this article that are totally unsupported by citations Ileanadu (talk) 04:34, 22 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

sources

There are very few references —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.36.150.134 (talk) 21:59, 16 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cross-posting with my comments to Pasco Rakic article

This article states that Pasco Rakic's assertion that there is no neurogenesis in the adult brain was the accepted scientific position for a significant period of time but in the Pasco Rakic article there is no support for this statement.

I am posting a link to my comments on the talk page of that article regarding the discrepancy:
