From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'm currently a clinical medical student at King's College London, and am taking advantage of the deluge of work to update some Wikipedia pages as a sort of revision exercise. My first degree was actually in English literature, and I worked in IT for IBM for three years or so after that before arriving at medicine via a psychology diploma and a year's work at UCL in health psychology, mostly working with people with chronic illness.
My main aim in Wikipedia is to try to reference as many disputed claims in articles as possible in as unbiased a way as possible. Like everyone, I have my own biases, but I hope they're a little different from those of the medical stereotype given the humanities background. That said, I'm a firm believer in taking decisions based on well-researched, solidly-analysed evidence, for all that there are problems with funding, publication, and bias intrinsic in that.
