Research fields: space physics, psychoacoustics, information theory and science policy; author of over 250 articles in scientific journals. His books "Mecanica Elemental" (Eudeba, Buenos Aires), "Dynamics of Geomagnetically Trapped Radiation" and "Physics and Psychophysics of Music" (both at Springer-Verlag) are ???classic??? university textbooks in their fields; the latter was translated into German, Spanish, Portuguese and Japanese. Roederer is a member of the Academies of Science of Austria, Argentina, and the Third World Academy of Sciences. Aus den Rezensionen: "??? eine Buchreihe ... Begr??ndet und redaktionell betreut von Physikerin Angela Lahee, hat sie das Ziel, den Lesern eine Erweiterung und Reflexion der eigenen Wissensgrenzen zu erm??glichen. ??? Die zentrale Rolle der Information in der Natur ??? Quantentheorie, Biologie, Genetik und Hirnforschung ??? er??rtert der Physiker Juan G. Roederer ??? au??erordentlich lesenwert. ???was wir brauchen, ist nicht der Wille zu glauben, sondern der Wille herauszufinden??? ??? Die interdisziplin??re, unkonventionelle Frontiers Collection ??? hat ihn sogar zu ihrem Leitspruch erhoben."
