It might be a good idea to touch base on what her research in chemistry explored to help give a sense of what she accomplished! You have a good outline for your article!

Everything looks good so far. The only suggestion I have is possibly writing out the abbreviations that you use the first time you use them. I feel like this is a convention I was taught at some point in my academic life. Probably not necessary, just a suggestion. Otherwise, the only other suggestion I have is more information on her contributions if you can find some good sources! (Belles18 (talk) 03:33, 1 October 2016 (UTC))[reply]
