A person who practices in a science field for which they were educated.

I consider engineers to be scientists, 
Hence the term mad scientist ;-b

Ok so he's not a doctor, biologist, virologist, and his education was mechanical engineering.

Not the guy I'd trust on bioweapons matters.

The other thing about it is this... How do you lab-design a virus to not mutate? I mean, that's what viruses do. Their RNA replication mechanism is by nature error-prone (so is human DNA, but much less so) and I can't even think of a way that would make sense. 

Maybe there's something I'm missing there, because of course I'm not a virologist either.
