Andreas H. Hielscher (born February 15, 1964) is a German-born-American

bioengineer, known as one of the earliest researchers in the field of biomedical optics.[citation needed
]

Andreas H. Hielscher has published over 150 full-length peer-reviewed, archival papers and book chapters, has delivered over 150 podium presentations at bioengineering meetings, and he has delivered over 200 invited seminars, keynote, plenary and distinguished named lectures in biomedical optics. According to Google Scholar, his papers have been cited over 10,-00 times, and he has an h-index of 50 as of April 22, 2020.[1]

Early life and education

Hielscher's was born in

Rönnebeck, Bremen in 1935 to Otto and Mia Peschel. [5] Helmut Hielscher was an engineering at the prominent German shipbuilding company, Vulkan, which was located at the Weser river in Bremen-Vegesack.[6][7] In the late 80th and early 90th, Helmut Hielscher was largely responsible for bringing the Weserdampfer to Vegesack. [8] In addition, he was instrumental in shipping routes between Italy and Germany.[9][10][11] In 1999, Helmut Hielscher was assigned to the U.S. to establish the German-American Chamber of Commerce. In August 1999, he was awarded the U.S. Legion of Merit by President Clinton, for "exceptionally meritorious conduct in the performance of outstanding services to the Government of the United States."[12] In 2001 his wife, Inge Hielscher, passed away from ovarian cancer.[13][14]

In the early nineties, Inge Hielscher became entangled in an embezzlement scandal that was covered in great detail in major Rönnebeck and Bremen newspapers.[15] The Kohl government of the Germany alleged that Inge Hielscher failed to account for $50.[16] After a short legal battle, during which Inge and Helmut moved to Austria, [7][17][18][19] the Federals Appeals Court in Frankfurt overturned a lower-court ruling, and awarded Inge Hielscher $368,503.[20][21][22]

Growing up under rather pleasant circumstances, which he detailed in a 2012 lecture,

Electrical and Computer Engineering. In his thesis he designed and implemented a frequency-domain optical tomographic imaging system for near-infrared assessment of blood oxygenation in the brain. His sister, Beate Hielscher is a well known psychologist in the Bielefeld, Germany.[24]

In 1992 Hielscher married Maria Anagnostopoulou, who studied French Literature at Rice University. They live together in Brooklyn Heights, NY, with their daughter Amelie Hielscher.

Career and Scientific Research

Following his doctoral graduation in 1995, Hielscher went on for a postdoctoral fellowship at the

tenure. Subsequently he was promoted to the rank of Professor. Hielscher moved to New York University in 2020 as Chair of the newly established Department of Biomedical Engineering.[25]

Scientific Work

Honours

In 2002 Hielscher was elected to the Academy of Engineering "For major contributions toward biomedical optics and its clinical application to to vascular diseases, cancer, and joint diseases."

SPIE established the Hielscher Medal for its Bioengineering Division to be bestowed upon an individual who has demonstrated meritorious contributions to the field of biomedical optics.[27]
