Chiro725 I agree with the citations, but how does he pass NPROF#6 ? I dont think that he "has held a highest-level elected or appointed administrative post at a major academic institution or major academic society.". --hroest 01:57, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Chiro725 NPROF#6 is usually reserved for the president of a university (highest-level elected office), but this he is clearly not. Basically being the "director of a research group" does not mean more than just being a professor that gave his research group a fancy name. To fulfill NPROF#6 he would have to become president of VUB. Btw, he could meet NPROF#5 as a named chair. In either case, I think the citations may just be enough to clear the bar. --hroest 02:09, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
