Dr. Michael Hehenberger is founder of HM NanoMed LLC, Connecticut, USA. He retired after a long career with IBM at the end of 2013. He earned a Dipl. Ing. in physics from the Technical University of Vienna, Austria, and obtained his Ph.D. and Dr. Sc. degrees in quantum chemistry from Uppsala University, Sweden, in 1975–79. He also spent two years at the University of Florida, Gainesville, USA, as visiting associate professor. In 1985, he joined IBM in Stockholm, Sweden, to initiate academic partnerships in computational biology, structural engineering, computer networks, and supercomputing. Throughout his IBM career that took him to European Headquarters in Paris, California (Almaden Research, San Jose), and New York, he has led collaborations with academic and global industrial life sciences organizations. The partnerships were based on the joint desire to extend the frontiers of computational chemistry and biology, information-based medicine, biopharmaceutical research, and nanomedicine.
