A brave citizen of Mars, ready to tame the final frontier. What do I do here?
He's of a 'Guru' trait. And his icon is pinned to the quick access. I honestly have no clue if I need to do something about it. Do I just ignore it?

Guru will gives his traits to any colonist with less than 4 traits.
They are not usefull as the empats or saints.

Citizens with rare traits are pinned to the quick access panel. You just ignore it or unpin it.

they get pinned from time to time... its like they make a personal call to you...

"Hey! Look at me! I'am Special!"

And on closer observation you see that it is a Genius, Guru, Idiot. :steamfacepalm:

(Can't work anywere without breaking it... generates Research and spreads his traits throughout the Dome...)

Almost right ...
A Guru is a type of trait that causes the the Guru Colonist to spread any of the other traits they have with all colonists in their dome that have less than 3 traits.
The choice of the spread traits is random by design in the default game and the Guru will share any of their Positive, Negative and Other Traits.

Here are the only traits a Guru will not spread:

Guru
Martianborn
Tourist

Oh! That makes sense, I was under the impression that the Gurus would only spread their 'positive' traits so I didn't bother much about it at first! Looks like my domes are going to have a few changes coming their way. :steamfacepalm:

PS: I would've like to mark SkiRich's comment as well as a 2nd answer, since it adds a lot to the details of it, but since I can only mark one, I marked For_Science!'s comment since it specifically mentions what I need to do.
