René Hummen began his studies in Computer Science at the RWTH Aachen University (Germany) in 2002 and graduated with the diploma degree (Dipl.-Inform.) in 2009. He joined the Distributed Systems Group at RWTH Aachen University as a PhD Student and Junior Researcher after completing his diploma. Since 2010, René Hummen is a member of the Chair of Communication and Distributed Systems at RWTH Aachen University.

During his studies, René Hummen passed a short-term study diploma (with honours) at the University of Kent at Canterbury (England) in the context of the Erasmus exchange program (in 2006). He worked on his diploma thesis at the Helsinki Institute for Information Technology (HIIT) in Finland supported by a scholarship of the Deutscher Akademischer Austausch Dienst (DAAD) in 2008. His thesis covers the topic of providing efficient identity-based security functions on in-network elements and was awarded with the Ericsson-UMIC-Diploma Thesis Award in 2009. René Hummen's research interests are mobile and wireless networking, secure end-to-middle communication, and efficient network security for the IP-based Internet of Things. He is actively involved in the standardization process of security-related topics at the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
