Short Bio

Eduard Gröller (http://www.cg.tuwien.ac.at/staff/EduardGroeller.html) is Full Professor at the Institute of Visual Computing & Human-Centered Technology (VC&HCT), TU Wien. In 1993 he received his PhD from the same university. His research interests include computer graphics, visualization, and visual computing. He is heading the Research Unit Computer Graphics and the Visualization Group at VC&HCT. The group performs basic and applied research projects in all areas of visualization (http://www.cg.tuwien.ac.at/research/vis/). Dr. Gröller has given lecture series on visualization at various other universities (Tübingen, Graz, Praha, Bahia Blanca, Magdeburg, Bergen). He is a scientific proponent and key researcher of the VRVis research center (http://www.vrvis.at/). The center performs applied research in visualization, rendering, and visual analysis. Dr. Gröller is adjunct professor of computer science at the University of Bergen, Norway (since 2005). He co-authored more than 300 scientific publications and acted as a reviewer for numerous conferences and journals in the field. He also has served and serves on various program and paper committees. Examples include Computers&Graphics, IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Graphics, EuroVis Conference, IEEE Visualization Conference, Eurographics Conference. He has been paper co-chair of Volume Graphics 2005, IEEE Visualization 2005 and 2006, and Eurographics 2006. He has been co-chair of the VisSym 1999 Symposium, the Eurographics 2011 Conference, and the EuroVis 2012 Conference. Dr. Gröller took on the task of area co-chair for IEEE Visualization 2021 and 2022. He has been Chief Editor of the Journal Computer Graphics Forum (http://wileyonlinelibrary.com/journal/cgf) in the period 2008-2011. Dr. Gröller became a fellow of the Eurographics Association in 2009. He is the recipient of the Eurographics 2015 Outstanding Technical Contributions Award and of the IEEE VGTC 2019 Technical Achievement Award. Dr. Gröller is head of the working group on computer graphics of the Austrian Computer Society and member of IEEE Computer Society, ACM (Association of Computing Machinery), GI (Gesellschaft für Informatik), OCG (Austrian Computer Society).
