Cabrera's academic positions
[edit]From the time the page was created in 2012 (here), the article stated 1) "Cabrera serves on the faculty at Cornell" and 2) "He was a research fellow at the Santa Fe Institute".
While his Cabrera Labs bio and a 2014 ISSS conference programme (at p. 21) present him with those titles, those are not peer-reviewed. Also, AFAICS, he is not listed in Cornell faculty directories (e.g. here).
For my edits (here and here), I relied on his bio in a 2008 peer-reviewed paper which lists him as Lecturer (and 'Visiting Fellow') at Cornell and research associate at SFI to better comport with WP:V and avoid WP:PROMO. Humanengr (talk) 05:29, 31 July 2026 (UTC)
