This article is incredibly biased, cherrypicked, and contains outright lies. The lede excessively flaunts Neumyvakin's credentials, using numerous citations (mostly from the same few sources) in an attempt to lend some credence to him. Absolutely no mention is made that he was a committed proponent of alternative medicine, pushing for discredited, pseudoscientific, and often dangerous quackery such as peroxide therapy.[1]
The article mentions that he has authored 250 scientific papers. The citations given do not support that claim. In fact, PubMed attributes only 9[2] papers to his name.
It is claimed that he is "one of the founders of space medicine". Although technically correct, his name is one amongst hundreds of names. In fact, this book on the history of Soviet space medicine only mentions him twice in passing.
Without a major rewrite that places the appropriate emphasis on his advocacy of alternative medicine, this article amounts to little more than disingenuous advertisement and should be deleted.
