Is Heimerdinger still a Professor at the Academy of Science?

Or has all that been scrapped?

His current Universe page has a brief bit of lore, not mentioning any of that. Plus his recent appearance in the Ziggs comic had him as just a shop keeper in Piltover, nothing else is mentioned. He's hiding himself from the populace instead of helping them progress and learn. He even lies to save himself from being discovered when Zigg's glamour fails in front of a massive crowd.

Howling Abyss Shopkeeper still greets him as such though. Did he even make Yi's goggles anymore? Is he still a genius that Piltover respects?

Kind of hoping for Yordle/Bandle City lore soon.
