... that Raymond P. Ahlquist's (pictured) discovery of adrenergic receptor subtypes was at first largely ignored but eventually led to the development of widely prescribed beta blocker drugs?

Article is new and long enough, hook is sourced, except for the part "was at first largely ignored", and short enough. As far as I can tell, Boghog hasn't got 5 DYK nominations, so no QPQ required. My only concern is the image, which does not seem to be freely licensed. --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 06:43, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

I have added citations that support that the work was "initially dismissed". A detailed fair use rationale has been added to the figure. Also please note that the figure has been moved from commons to en.wiki because the fair use rationale may not be valid in other countries. Finally I see that the image must be free to included in the DYK. I will contact the Lasker Foundation for permission, but in the mean time, I suggest that image be removed from the hook.

Good to go save for the image. We'll either have to wait whether the Lasker Foundation agrees to freely licensing the image, or take the hook to the main page without. Thanks, Bog, for addressing my concerns! --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 13:16, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
