Non-notable, all of the references appear to be reviews or small mentions. I should note that the themedicineprogram.com link is simply a mirror of this article. The nearest acceptable link that the article lists is this CardioVax profile. Google News archives found one Telegraph article here, where he is mentioned twice. There is also another single mention here.

This medical news article focuses with his work but it would be insufficient to support this article. The second page of results briefly continues with other small mentions. Google Books provided results of books that are either written or co-written by him. Google Books also provided two mentions here but the quality of the preview is low and is probably insignificant as well. There is another small mention here from what appears to be a list and the following search results continued to be small mentions. However, I found one biography here but, like the medpagetoday link, would probably also be insufficient. Google Scholar found pages and pages of co-work but I wouldn't know if any of it classifies him as notable. SwisterTwister  talk  03:05, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep With a GS h-index of 40+ and 17 papers with over 100 cites, albeit in a highly cited field, he certainly counts as passing WP:Prof. Nominator is advised to become familiar with WP:Prof and standard practice in academic Afds before making further nominations.

 * Keep - Per Xxanthippe, plus text of article which mentions 290 invited lectures; that's quite a lot and a strong indicator of notability. --Lquilter (talk) 17:22, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Wos concurs with an h-index of 40. This is a conclusive pass on WP:PROF #1. Thx, Agricola44 (talk) 15:02, 10 September 2012 (UTC).
