Any resemblance to our Gus is purely coincidental?

The answer is unknown.

The good doctor is from the UK. Gus is American. It could just be a good cover story.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

And Gus's vacation to DC is to see the lecture, among other things?

Since the lecture was 9 May, and the professor is from London, I think it's safe to say he's not gonna make it.

What? Gus can't time travel? This planet is going down hill.
