That's very interesting! The blog looks serious and up-to-date. Our article is not very international, and the above information would be an improvement. What sources may we cite? A 'Who's Who'? Press releases by the College of Neurology or others? We should have at least one good source in English and then perhaps sources in other languages.

When did Dr. Carrim attain the Diploma?

Information about the length and content of study necessary to attain the Diploma would be an interesting item, too. - Hordaland (talk) 10:42, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have a copy of the qualification that I can fax.
