Comment: Subject appears notable, but the draft is dependent upon just two sources. The university profile is not sufficiently independent of the subject. Wikipedia requires substantial coverage in reliable independent sources - see WP:RS. For an eminent scientist, this might include news articles in broadsheet newspapers or professional journals, or announcements of his honours or awards by the awarding bodies.
