Prof. Dr. Hans Hagen, Speaker and Overall Principal Investigator of the IRTG recieves the IEEE Visualization Career Award 2009
IEEE VGTC: "This 2009 Visualization Career Award goes to Hans Hagen, University of Kaiserslautern, in recognition of sustained and seminal contributions to Scientific Visualization. Dr. Hagen has made significant scientific contributions, especially in the fields of geometric modeling and scientific visualization. Many of these contributions have influenced substantially the evolution of these research agenda in visualization and modeling. He is among the top leaders in these fields worldwide. It is particularly noteworthy that Hans Hagen established the first “International Research Training Group” (IRTG) involving his home university, UC Davis (lead US partner), University of Utah and Arizona State University. Over a period of nine years about 60 Ph.D. students will be supported to receive an integrated research training in the area of visualization and analysis of large unstructured data sets. Inter alia, Dr. Hagen is the “spiritus rector” behind the highly successful Dagstuhl Visualization Conference series. The IEEE VGTC is pleased to award Hans Hagen the 2009 Visualization Career Award."
