That does not answer my question of _how_ the situation has changed in that short time.

Given that the chair is in Molecular Biology, and …

1. Axe has no formal training in that field (all his degrees are in Chemistry) and

2. he appears to have no record of recent or extensive _mainstream_ publication in that field (his Biola Bio lists only publications in his own _Bio-Complexity_ journal)

… I have to wonder if he’s even _qualified_ for the position. @Mercer, @Rumraket, would you like to venture an opinion?
