This subject fails WP:ACADEMIC and WP:GNG. It's hard to tell what's notable; many publish a large number of papers, but he's generally co-authored (mileage varies). I'm getting an h-index on this side of stellar, though it shouldn't be a deciding factor either way. JFHJr (㊟) 07:32, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. With an h-index of 40 this is a clear pass of WP:Prof#C1, even in this highly cited field. Xxanthippe (talk) 01:19, 9 July 2012 (UTC).[reply]
