WP:NACADEMIC: "The person holds or has held a... distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research." In this context, wouldn't that apply to "Salusky became a Distinguished Professor of pediatrics and Chief, Pediatric Nephrology at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center"?

Keep -- "Salusky became a Distinguished Professor of pediatrics and Chief, Pediatric Nephrology at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center" meets WP:PROF. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:13, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I think so. This is a major teaching hospital, I believe, so that criterion # 5 of WP:NACADEMIC would seem to apply. Furthermore, and perhaps more importantly, the referenced claim that "he established the foundation for our understanding of bone and mineral metabolism in children with chronic kidney disease" would seem to meet #1. And then to top it off, he received a lifetime achievement award from the American Academy of Pediatrics, meeting criterion #2. Keep. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:22, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:PROF#C1 (highly cited publications including one with over 2800 cites on Google scholar), #C2 (a lifetime achievement award from a major society [1]), and #C5 (the distinguished professorship). —David Eppstein (talk) 17:09, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep passes WP:PROF and WP:ACADEMIC clearly. Life time major award, distinguished professor and editor of renowned medical journal. –Ammarpad (talk) 14:54, 29 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
