disagree  Boris Shapiro: А sports enthusiast, надо полагать, - "организатор спорта"? / 'a person who enjoys and is interested in scientific facts' может не иметь ни малейшего отношения к организации науки. Аналогично, a person who enjoys sports не обязан работать даже тренером.

Explanation:
You'll need to rephrase the sentece as there's no such thing as a "scientific organizer" in English. You can come up with an appropriate adjective and noun combo, and/or just describe him as head of this and that committee/movement, etc.

PS You might come across "scientific organizer" in direct RU-EN translations but this term isn't used by natives.

If you're looking for a job title, go ahead and google a modern job title that comes closest, or specify which organizations/committees he headed, but if this needs to read like a description/bio blurb, then your best bet is commonly used phrasing.
