from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aleksander S. Popel (born October 8, 1945 in Moscow ) is professor of biomedical engineering at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore .

Career

Popel obtained a Master of Science (1967) and later (1972) Ph.D. from Lomonosov University in Moscow. In 1975 he came to the United States . His stations in the USA were Tulane University in New Orleans , the University of Arizona in Tucson and the University of Houston , before he joined Johns Hopkins University as an associate professor in 1984 and took up a chair there in 1988. From 2003 to 2004 he was visiting professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Department of Pathology / Ophthalmology at Harvard . In 2009 he was visiting professor at the Newton Institute at Cambridge University . Since 2010 he has been Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University. His main research area is molecular systems biology . In addition to the By editor shank of scientific journals is another activity among many others as Chairman of the Supervisory Committee of the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES), the leading biomedical engineering profession union in the United States.
