Notability

There is a tag on the page that suggests that Moffitt does not meet the general notability guideline. This is incorrect. Gene-environment interactions and epigenetics are the next hot areas of study in the nature-nurture debate. Indeed, they may even resolve it. And Moffitt is a notable figure in the area. I have not had any involvement in the creation of this page, but I'm glad it's here. --JTBurman (talk) 08:18, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

None of the sources in the article appear to talk about Moffitt, rather they're about the same subjects Moffitt studies, or they're by Moffitt herself. Since you're so glad the article is here I hope you'll take the trouble to find reliable, independent, secondary sources discussing Moffitt herself. If those can't be found the article will have to be deleted. EEng (talk) 20:43, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Moffitt was recently identified as among the 400 most highly influential biomedical researchers in the world by a peer-reviewed study published in the European Journal of Clinical Investigation (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/eci.12171/abstract;jsessionid=EFB36D7D984D1B235ADEF482C0749BB4.f03t04); she is listed among the most highly cited researchers in her field of Psychology/Psychiatry by Thompson Reuters (http://highlycited.com/names/M.html); she holds a named professorship at Duke University (http://psychandneuro.duke.edu/people?Gurl=%2Faas%2Fpn&Uil=terrie.moffitt&subpage=profile); she is a fellow of the American Academy of Political and Social Science (link already on page); she has won highly prestigious international awards, including the Klaus J Jacobs Award (http://jacobsfoundation.org/awards/research-prize-2010/) and the Stockholm Prize in Criminology (linked already on page). Additional documentation for the description of Dr. Moffitt's work and its impact on the field can be found at the Klaus Grawe Foundation (http://www.klaus-grawe-stiftung.ch/content/e9/e107/e110/e111/index_ger.html). She is described as "one of the leading voices in psychological science" by the Association for Psychological Science (http://www.psychologicalscience.org/index.php/convention/icps-sign-up/keynote-speakers)152.3.43.226 (talk) 21:25, 6 November 2013 (UTC)DWBelsky[reply]
