This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because Sera Markoff played a crucial role in the recently announced research effort to get an image of a black hole. She fulfils both Criteria 1 and 5 of the notability criteria for academics and the article will reflect that fact in a few minutes when I am actually done writing it.
