Rainer Haag (born 1968) is a German chemist and Chair Professor of Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry at the Free University of Berlin.
He conducts research together with his working group on preventing aggressive pathogens and viruses from entering the body's cells using nanotechnology.
Born in Darmstadt in 1968, Rainer Haag was interested in the mysteries of science from an early age and found valuable support at home.
Even during these years of training, he received impressive awards and honors for his outstanding achievements, ranging from acceptance into the Studienstiftung des Deutschen Volkes to the Hans von Wartenberg Prize from the Chemical Institute in Göttingen and the award from the Chemical Industry Fund for fast and very successful work studies are enough.
In 2001 he received the ADUC-Habilitanden-Prize 2000 from the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh) and a little later the Reimund-Stadler-Prize from the specialist group for macromolecular chemistry of the same society.
