Nomination passes. I hope they can use this as a lead hook, because the image is so different from most others we see. ALT1 is more concise, but both are interesting. I'm calling the hook as the promoter's choice. Nice job on an interesting subject matter. — Maile (talk) 17:06, 19 August 2016 (UTC)

  • I agree this begs to go in the lead slot. I've added the word pioneering to both hooks. I'd also change necroses to necrosis, but I'll leave that to others to decide. EEng 21:38, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
