Hey, absolutely congrats on being here to host this AMA.

Seeing your "Ask literally anything, it doesnt matter if... (etc.)" I am curious about the PTSD.

I tried googling PTSD as a result of cancer and it seemed to be a fuzzy topic. Some people seemed to claim it was just stress and bad memories while others had an acute reaction based on one event (such as the diagnosis).

As an interested party, can you inform me about PTSD in regards to sickness and Cancer? PTSD is usually tied to a specific event, so I am curious what would trigger this during a prolonged ordeal.

For question #1, what do women do differently as scientists that brings a "unique perspective" ? Saying that women can give "a unique perspective and can contribute in a very creative way" seems like a very loose response.

It does not seem as if you answered question #2 Why do you believe that the editors' gender is responsible for this difference? Wouldn't historical gender roles (which aren't necessarily fair) contribute to such an imbalance of noteworthy individuals?

Although you did reiterate that you believe that Wikipedia has gender bias, which I believe. I am also curious why you believe the reason for more male scientist biographies is the gender of Wikipedia editors as opposed to the obvious lack of female scientists throughout history up until the mid 1900's.

These responses are rather frustrating. You have the opportunity to promote women scientists in this AMA, but this is turning into a mockery with vague answers.
