Fails WP:GNG and WP:PROF. Two of four refs are interviews; the third documents the acquisition of a company he founded. David notMD (talk) 15:52, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - while the article is poorly sourced, he has an h-index of 31, and has quite a few well-cited articles, as seen on his google scholar profile. Passes WP:NSCHOLAR. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 14:36, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I agree with Onel: citations [1] are good enough for WP:PROF#C1. Additionally, I suspect Fellow of American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (added after AfD started) may be enough for #C3, although that is cast into some doubt by Voit being at associate professor rank at the time of being named a fellow. (Most scholarly societies reserve fellow status for academics who are more well-established, and are typically at the full professor level.) The independence of the references is not really problematic for WP:PROF notability, as long as we believe them to be reliable enough for what they source. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:59, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Would help a bit if a reference can confirm he is a tenured faculty member. David notMD (talk) 14:59, 14 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. He's listed as an associate professor on his department faculty page. No reason to believe he isn't tenured. I've replaced the PR department profile used as a reference with his own faculty webpage listing him as associate professor.StarryGrandma (talk) 20:16, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
