The spirit of and reason behind the |academic notability guideline is that researchers can be noteworthy because they have done influential work, even if we don't have biographical material devoted to them specifically. I think that the science-media coverage and the L'Oréal-UNESCO award are indicators enough for that, in this case. (Postdoctoral fellowships generally don't count for all that much in the academic-notability evaluation, but getting half a million pounds from the Royal Society doesn't exactly ''hurt,'' either.) Nor does the article read as particularly promotional; to me, it's a pretty humdrum academic bio
