- Dear 48JCL,
- thank you so much for reviewing this one – and I am admittedly new here. I am a researcher in the DBS field and can say with confidence that Dr. Lozano is among the top five most famous people in this field, most cited neurosurgeon world-wide, etc. In your assessment, please also see Wikipedia:Notability (academics) – in which he would check many of the boxes. To name one example, the Olivecrona award is the highest honor given to neurosurgeons, world-wide.
- I also did include many references that cover his work prominently (e.g. the article in the independent). But as an academic, the weight on news-stories is not as high as e.g. awards, achievements, contributions to the field, etc.
- To help me better understand things: Would you be able to give some examples of sources that would convince you more that Dr. Lozano is a highly notable neuroscientist? Would news-stories about him be better or citation records? Would scientific articles help? For his case, everything is available (he even inspired a Dr. House episode). Since I'm new, I just don't know what you would find most convincing.
- Thank you so much for further help on this!
