Regina Barzilay[edit]
...that "genius grant" winner Regina Barzilay, after recovering from breast cancer, used her understanding of machine learning to improve cancer treatment?

Interesting life, with a "genius grant"! That doesn't show in the hook, nor in the article, - could it? - "computer scientist" is too broad. - Good sources, no copyvio obvious. You have an attractive licensed image, get it here, please. - The source you source speaks of screening, not treatment, btw. "MIT" is short and tells volumes about her scientific standard. Summary: word a hook. (I can't, or can't review it.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:38, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
- Gerda Arendt & Fionaz6954, added mention of the "Genius Grant" to the article. How about:
- ALT1: ... that after recovering from breast cancer, Regina Barzilay used her understanding of machine learning to improve cancer treatment and won a Genius Grant?
- ALT2: ... that Genius Grant winner Regina Barzilay helped decipher the ancient language Ugaritic? --Usernameunique (talk) 04:40, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you for all that. Both are possible, but I'd prefer ALT2 without her own story, and then perhaps combine both achievements in one. Anyway, for now, both are approved.
