	'''René Brun''' joined CERN in 1973. While working with C. Rubbia at the [[ISR]] he developped the [[HBOOK]] package. In 1975 he was in charge of the simulation and reconstruction software for [[NA44]] where [[GEANT1]] and [[GEANT2]] were created. In 1981, he joined [[OPAL]] at LEP, creating the [[GEANT3]] detector simulation system, also pioneering the introduction of the first workstations like Apollos in Europe. In 1984 he coordinated the development of the [[PAW]] (Physics Analysis Workstation) data analysis system and until 1994 he was in charge of the Application Software group in the computing division. In 1995 he created the [[ROOT]] system while working for the [[NA49]] heavy ion experiment at the SPS. Brun has been leading the ROOT project from 1995-2011. He is still active and following his retirement he has the chance to work on his own project on Physics models.<ref>Interview with René Brun by Panos Charitos, Newletter of the EP Department, 24th Mar 2013, https://ep-news.web.cern.ch/content/interview-rene-brun.</ref>		'''René Brun''' joined CERN in 1973.
