Honored to be part of this global effort (9 authors, 8 countries, 4 continents!) to make high quality medical content available on Wikipedia and Wikidata. And such a great group of people. @mendesthiagob, this would not have happened without your work and leadership. Exciting.

So great to get support from "home"! Thank you, Gitter-Smolarz Library of Life Sciences & Medicine, for always supporting my work, and TAU Gray Faculty of Medical & Health Sciences for believing in this course way back in 2013, when it was still a new idea that was not tried elsewhere. It means a lot. <3
