No independent notability can be established for the subject of this paid PR article. Sources in the article itself are PR, non-independent, or are not actually about the subject of the article. The further attempt to establish notability based on the fact that the subject is a Fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering falls down flat - there were 170 other people inducted at the same time as Voit.

Keep. The case for WP:PROF#C1 looks clear. As for the AIMBE, they claim that their College of Fellows represents "the top 2% of medical and biological engineers" [1]. If that really represented 2% of their membership then it would be selective enough for WP:PROF#C3 but I am skeptical because why wouldn't they say so more clearly? —David Eppstein (talk) 17:47, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - To the nominator: I do not know how you can tell if it is a Paid PR vs. COI (the subject could have easily created their own page). Hence, you should not post such arguments when nominating, without actually having evidence.Hkkingg (talk) 07:43, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep- the subject has almost 5000 Google scholar citations and meets WP:NPROF.Hkkingg (talk) 07:45, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
