Sultan Hassan (Arabic: سلطان حسن) is a Sudanese computational astrophysicist and NASA Hubble Fellow.[2][3][4]

Hassan was born in Saudi Arabia. In 2009, he received a BSc in Physics from the University of Khartoum, Sudan. In 2013, he received an MSc in Astrophysics & Space Science from the University of Cape Town, South Africa, and a PhD from the University of the Western Cape, South Africa. During his PhD studies, Hassan became a visiting fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics until 2017.[4] In 2018, he became a Square Kilometre Array Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Western Cape, followed by a Tombaugh Postdoctoral Fellow at New Mexico State University from 2018 to 2020. In September 2020, he became Flatiron Research Fellow at the Flatiron Institute.[5][6] In 2022, Hassan was selected for NASA Hubble Fellowship Program as a Hubble Fellow hosted at Princeton University.[6][7][8][9]

Hassan specialises in computational astrophysics, focusing on large-scale galaxy formation[10][11] and high-resolution radiative-transfer simulations coupled with machine learning[12] and Bayesian inference techniques for multimodal information extraction and understanding of how the Intergalactic and Circumgalactic media both had evolved from Cosmic Dawn.[5][13][1]
