Satisfying Wikipedia notability criteria

Criteria to be satisfied

This is outlined on the Wikipedia:Notability (academics) page.

The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources.

This is satisfied by the 300+ citations for A design for a pinhole scanning helium microscope Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms (2014), the paper has acted as a guide for further development within the field
This is further satisfied by the securing of over 2 million pounds worth of funding within the field as demonstrated in the Research section of the page
Helium-3 spin-echo spectroscopy is a new field and the talks given at the Cambridge Physics society show that John Ellis is an academic that has contributed significantly to the awareness of the techniqe

Comparison with other similar pages

Eugene Terentjev is of another Director of Studies and Cambridge, this page is much less detailed and this satisfies WP:ANYBIO. It appears that the John Ellis page goes much further to satisfy these requirements

General discussion

I propose the name: John Ellis (University of Cambridge Physicist)

Note: The page has been updated with multiple sources including a link to a talk and multiple research papers

He is not American, the change to (american physicist) does not therefore make sense, furthermore, University of Cambridge Physicist differentiates him from the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ellis_(physicist) page, they are both British
