Yes, thought the same but have a quick look at this: https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=WLN3QrAAAAAJ&view_op=list_works&sortby=pubdate Seems about right? But yeah, must be advising lots of students or something. He is rarely the first, second or even third author on the papers.

Ah. I hadn't really considered preprints or workshops. If I just count the ones that seem to be published in journals or conferences, it's 28. Still prolific. But reasonable in a 10-15 person lab.
