Draft:Antentor Hinton, Jr.

  • Comment: You seem to misunderstand what is needed to prove notability. Please read carefully WP:NACADEMIC. For instance:
    1)He needs major awards, not "Master's mentoring certificates".
    2) Sentences such as "During this time, a close friend's death due to neuroblastoma encouraged a career in biomedical research" are not really informative.
    3) Think more about what would go in a NIH proposal than a popular magazine. Ldm1954 (talk) 14:34, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

Antentor O Hinton, Jr. (born 1988) is a Molecular Physiologist who serves as Assistant Professor of at the Department of Molecular Physiology and Biophysics at the Vanderbilt School of Medicine Basic Sciences at Vanderbilt University.[1]. His work utilizes Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscopy (FIBSEM) and Serial Block-Face Scanning Electron Microscopy (SBFSEM) imaging studies on mitochondrial networks in human disease with a focus on the molecular mechanisms regulated by insulin that influence cristae and mitochondria dynamics in pathophysiological conditions such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease.[2]. Dr. Antentor Hinton has several publications devoted to mapping structure of mitochondria at different life stages [3]. He is on the editorial board of Circulation Research, Aging Cell, Aging Advances, Scientific Reports, American Journal of Physiology – Heart and Circulatory Physiology, Journal of Cellular Physiology. and the Advanced Biology (from Wiley journal) [4]. He is also the associate editor of the specialty section of Bioenergetics in Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences (from Frontiers Media). Notably, in 2023, he headed an article on Juneteenth which led to the first diversity, equity, and inclusion cover in the journal Cell [5]. This article was discussed within Forbes, CBS News, and other newspapers, contributing to ongoing discussions of the need for diversity in field of STEM [6].
