G'day!
I work on a resource called PubMed Health, at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), a division of the US National Library of Medicine. We're part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, Maryland.
Several years ago, the NIH held a Wikipedia Academy ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Academy/NIH_2009 ). Guidelines for participation in Wikipedia were developed for NIH staff: http://www.nih.gov/icd/od/ocpl/resources/wikipedia/index.htm
The NCBI has been collaborating with WikiProject Medicine for a few months. We're delighted that Doc James (James Heilman from Project Medicine) and Blue Rasberry (Lane Rasberry, Wikipedian-in-Residence at Consumer Reports) are spending most of next week with us to further both our collaboration, and We're having meetings and edit-a-thons next week at the NIH campus in Bethesda - but you can also register to participate in webinars of the edit-a-thons on Tuesday afternoon and Thursday morning next week, US EST. Here's our project page:

Email to register either in reply to this email or to pmhmeet@gmail.com
Apologies for the short notice - but we hope it's not too late to stir up interest in participation.
Best wishes
