Overall: 
Just a minor concern regarding the first hook: it may be clearer if one or two words are added. Right now it's slightly confusing to me. ALT2: ... that neuroscientist Cristina Alberini found that increasing the amount of IGF-II administered can improve memory function? feminist (talk) 16:50, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review, will get on those cns as soon as I get some time. Achaea (talk) 12:32, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- @Feminist: Sorry for the delay. I have resolved the {{cn}} tags (removed the info I couldn't verify, and added sources where I could). How about this instead of ALT0? Achaea (talk) 10:04, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

- I checked the two sources you added and they don't fully support the sentence, as neither source mentioned her stint at the University of Brescia or the fact that she returned to the US in 1991 (though they do support her joining the lab of Kandel). I attempted looking for sources: her personal CV supports the statement, but that would obviously have to comply with WP:ABOUTSELF. I think it's OK as a source as it merely fills in the gaps between what the sources cover, so I'll give this a provisional
