From Pubmed, it appears that since 2007, he published 6 papers in one lab (likely his Ph.D. lab), including a first author in PNAS, and 4 papers in a second lab since 2013, including the Nat. Neurosci. paper you cite, where he is one of 3 authors. It isn't a terrible publication record. One would have to know the significance of what he did publish in order to judge properly. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=Gariepy%20JF[auth] http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=Gariepy%20JF[auth]

> 4 papers in a second lab since 2013 Out of those 4 papers in his postdoc lab, two are reviews[0,1] and one is a peer commentary[2], so only the second-author paper I linked before counts as original research. Similarly, one of his (three) first-author publications from his PhD lab is also a review[3]. He does have two first-author publications from that lab, including one in PNAS[4], but neither of them seem to have been cited that much. In any case, you can't coast on your PhD publication record once you've been a postdoc for several years. 0: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/nyas.12315/abstract http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/nyas.12315/abstra... 1: http://journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fnins.2014.00058/abstract http://journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fnins.2014.00... 2: http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=8958124&fileId=S0140525X12001938 http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPag... 3: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21111208 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21111208 4: http://www.pnas.org/content/109/2/E84.long http://www.pnas.org/content/109/2/E84.long

  There are only 3 authors on the Nat. Neurosci. paper, so he likely spent a large amount of his time working on this project. So it would be a bit unfair to compare his output in that lab to that of the first author of the same paper. Metrics are fine and all, but rarely tell the full picture. Not that I know what the full picture really looks like in this case...

    The Nat. Neurosci. paper lists author contributions at the bottom (Gariépy is J.F.G). > S.W.C.C and M.L.P. designed the research and wrote the paper. S.W.C.C. and J.F.G. performed the research and S.W.C.C analyzed the data.

      Quite. He performed the research, but it doesn't indicate whether he spent 2 years doing mostly this, or did just one of the experiments over a few weeks... Similarly for the first author.
