@Orygun: New enough and long enough. QPQ present. Did some copyediting (I strongly suggest looking into clipping your Newspapers.com citations and using citation templates especially—I'd be happy to assist). Earwig clocks one item that I think is worth tweaking: the "become an international leader in the field of immunotherapy cancer research and treatment", which is really weasel-wordy. (It also flags many a title and organization name.) You also might want to double-check your citations with fresh eyes: I spotted multiple sources with listed dates of 18XX instead of 19XX. I also wish there was a more interesting hook, tbh. Things look good; I just want to get that one passage tweaked. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 06:15, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Sammi Brie: Changed wording in question to read: "The research center helped establish the institution's immunotherapy cancer research and treatment program." Hope you agree that’s better phasing. Also, thanks for making cleanup edits!--Orygun (talk) 06:21, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
Yes. I'd like to note to Orygun that when you ping, you need to sign the post as well. That's why it took me 17 days to see this—you added the ping after the fact, so it didn't even ping at all. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 06:04, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
