Arndt von Haeseler (born 28 February 1959) is a German bioinformatician and evolutionary biologist. He is the scientific director of the Max F. Perutz Laboratories at the Vienna Biocenter and a professor of bioinformatics at the University of Vienna and the Medical University of Vienna.

Education

Arndt von Haeseler obtained a doctorate in mathematics from the University of Bielefeld in 1988 under the supervision of Andreas Dress and Hans-Georg Carstens.[2][1] He habilitated in 1994 at the Department of Zoology of the University of Munich,[2] where he remained as a lecturer until 1998.[3]

Research and career

From 1998 until 2001, von Haeseler was a group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig.[3] From 2001 until 2005, he was professor of bioinformatics at the University of Düsseldorf.[2] He was a group leader in bioinformatics at Forschungszentrum Jülich.[3] In 2005, he joined the Max F. Perutz Laboratories (MFPL) in Vienna, where he leads the Center for Integrative Bioinformatics Vienna (CIBIV).[2] He is a professor of bioinformatics at the University of Vienna and the Medical University of Vienna.[4] From 2017 to 2020, he was the scientific director of the MFPL (since 2019 Max Perutz Labs).[4][5] At the University Vienna, he was the dean of the Center for Molecular Biology.[6] At the Medical University of Vienna, he was the head of the Department for Medical Biochemistry.[7]

His research focuses on developing computational methods for the reconstruction of phylogenetic trees.[3] He co-authored the phylogenetics software packages TREEFINDER,[8] TREE-PUZZLE,[9] and its successor, IQ-TREE.[10][11]

He sits on the editorial boards of Molecular Biology and Evolution and BMC Evolutionary Biology.[12][13][14]

Awards and honours

In 2021 and 2022, Arndt von Haeseler was awarded "Highly Cited Researcher".[15][16][17]

In 2015, von Haeseler was elected as a corresponding member of the mathematics and science class of the Austrian Academy of Sciences.[12][18]

Since 1999, he holds an honorary professorship in theoretical biology at the University of Leipzig.[12][19]
