Draft:Travis Meyer (neuroscientist)

  • Comment: Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO, WP:PROF) but presently does not. As other reviewers have noted, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable . Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see referencing for beginners. Note that several of the sources are article by the subject, not about the subject. Publishing numerous papers does not confer notability, as Wikipedia defines it. Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements then resubmit the page and ping me and I would be happy to reassess. As I said, I do think this draft has potential so please do persevere!

  • Comment: please remove all external links from the body of the article we don't use them, some might be suitable for converting into sources though. Theroadislong (talk) 16:35, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
  • Comment: You need to support all material statements with citations to reliable sources. For example, where do the DOB/POB details come from?
    Moreover, you need to cite sources that provide significant coverage of the subject and are independent and reliable, in order to establish notability per WP:GNG. Or if special WP:PROF notability is being asserted, specify clearly on what basis this is, and what evidence supports the assertion. DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:06, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

Travis Meyer, PhD (born ????) is an American neuroscientist, programmer, and engineer at the University of Pennsylvania. He studies the neural coding of learning and memory, and builds integrative neuroscience systems.[1][2]

Education and early career edit

Meyer received his Bachelors of Science from Florida Atlantic University in 2002, with an honors thesis under Steven Bressler.[3] He then went on to receive his PhD in n from Wake Forest Medical Center[4] under the mentorship of Christos Constantinidis[5] and Terry Stanford.[6] There, his work focused on how the primate brain processing visual information for space and objects in different areas of the prefrontal cortex.[7] Early in his career, Meyer received the Norman M. Sulkin Award[8] and the Elsevier/Vision Research Award in and the prestigious National Research Service Award.[9][6]

Career and research edit

Meyer completed postdoctoral work at Carnegie Mellon University between 2008 and 2014 in the laboratory of Carl R Olson[10] where he worked in biomedical engineering and discovered implicit statistical learning in Primate visual systems.[10] Meyer joined the University of Pennsylvania where he is the senior research lead for visual memory research in 2015.[2]

Reception edit

Meyer's work, and that of his group, are recognized as leaders in the field of visual memory neuroscience with international awards,[11] funding from the Mcknight Foundation,[12] and the Simons Foundation,[13] and the most widely read Scientific journals.[14][10] The research has been the subject of numerous podcasts,[15][16] Scientific news outlets[17][18] Medical News,[19] Technology,[20] International Press[21] and Financial news.[22]
