Juergen Hahn (born October 18, 1971) is an American engineering professor. His research focuses on computational systems biology with a specific emphasis on the development of data science approaches and their application to biological pathways relevant to the life sciences. [2]
Hahn earned his undergraduate degree at the RWTH Aachen in Germany. During his undergraduate studies, he spent one year as a Fulbright Scholar at Texas A&M University. [3] He moved to the University of Texas at Austin for his graduate studies, where he completed a master's degree and a doctorate. His doctoral research focused on the analysis of nonlinear systems for the purpose of identifying which parts of a model contribute the most to control-relevant behavior and need to be retained during a model reduction procedure. [1] His doctoral studies were followed by post-doctoral research at the Chair of Process Systems Engineering at RWTH Aachen where his research focused on studying the effect of uncertainty in parameters on controlled nonlinear systems. [4]
In 2003, Hahn joined Texas A&M University as an assistant professor, and was later promoted to the rank of associate professor (2009). His research at Texas A&M focused on the development and application of systems analysis approaches to biological networks with a particular emphasis on signaling pathways involved in inflammation. [5] In 2012, Hahn moved to the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute as a professor and became the head of the Biomedical Engineering Department in 2013. [5] His research focus at Rensselaer was on the application of systems concepts to the life sciences with a specific emphasis on the pathophysiology of autism. [6] [7] [8] [9]
Hahn won the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) CAST Division Outstanding Young Researcher Award in 2010, [10] was named a Fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE) in 2013, [11] an AIChE Fellow in 2020, [12] and a Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) Fellow in 2022. [13] He was elected a Trustee of Computer Aids for Chemical Engineering in 2014, [14] served on the IEEE CSS Board of Governors in 2016, [15] and was the Chair of the BMES Council of Chairs in 2024. [16]
Hahn was an editor for the Journal of Process Control (2010–Present), [17] Control Engineering Practice (2007–present), [18] Automatica (2011 - 2014), Processes (2015 - 2020), Journal of Advanced Manufacturing and Processing (2020–present), [19] Journal of Personalized Medicine (2022–present), [20] and Optimal Control: Applications and Methods (2020–2023). [21] He was conference chair for the 41st Northeast Bioengineering Conference [22] and the 7th International Conference on Foundations of Systems Biology in Engineering. [23] [24]
