I don't see that this individual meets the criteria of WP:GNG, WP:NBIO, WP:NAUTHOR, or WP:PROF. Sources given don't indicate that his books have won any awards or were reviewed, and the science award he won is not a major one. Google search for the name shows that he's published as a scientific author, but nothing that has garnered particular attention. Also possible conflict of interest. ... disco spinster   talk  18:52, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete - no reliable sources in search results. All sources on the current article are either self-published or unreliable. Jalen D. Folf   (talk)  05:02, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - associate professors are rarely notable. Pinging in case I'm wrong. Bearian (talk) 16:17, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - Lacking in acceptable resources. Barca (talk) 19:08, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep. by our usual standards. 3 papers with 100 or more citations. This is sufficient to show influence in their field, and 100 is the level we've been consistently using for biomedicine, the most heavily cited field. This article was written (by the subject) in ignorance of our WP:PROF standard,  without the papers or citations being mentioned, but I have added them. The only reason it's a week keep instead of a keep is that he is the principal author for only the one of the most-cited papers--judging not just by author position, but by where the work was done at that stage in his career.
