Education
Huttenhower gained his BS from the
Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in 2000, where he majored in computer science, chemistry and mathematics. He then spent two years as a software developer for
Microsoft , working on the Microsoft Natural Language Development Platform. Huttenhower gained his MS in
computational linguistics from
Carnegie Mellon University in 2003, where he studied with Dannie Durand and
Eric Nyberg . In 2003, Huttenhower moved to
Princeton University where he was awarded a
PhD in 2008 for research in
genomics supervised by
Olga Troyanskaya . His PhD thesis was titled Analysis of large genomic data collections .

Research
Huttenhower joined the
Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in 2009 as an assistant professor of
computational biology and
bioinformatics ,
[1] becoming an associate professor in 2013.
[8] Huttenhower's lab worked extensively with the NIH
Human Microbiome Project (HMP) to identify and characterise the microorganisms found in association with both healthy and diseased humans.
[2]
[3]
[4] As of 2015, he co-leads one of the follow-up 'HMP2' Centers for Characterizing the Gut Microbial Ecosystem in Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
[14]
Awards and honors
Huttenhower received an
NSF CAREER award in 2010 for his research on microbial communities
[8]
[15] and was awarded a
Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in 2012.
[16] In 2015, Huttenhower was awarded the
Overton Prize
[1] from the
International Society for Computational Biology . His PhD supervisor Olga Troyanskaya had been awarded the same prize in 2011.
[17] Huttenhower is also a member of the editorial boards for the academic journals
Genome Biology , Microbiome and
BMC Bioinformatics .
