J'Dan was a Klingon scientist that served in the Officer Exchange Program in the late 24th century.
In 2367, J'Dan was assigned to the Federation starship Enterprise. Since he was afflicted with Ba'ltmasor Syndrome, he had to visit sickbay often to get regular treatments. While doing this, he sometimes chatted with the medical personnel, including Doctor Crusher; the medical technician assigned to him was Crewman Simon Tarses.
Shortly after arriving on the Enterprise however, the dilithium articulation frame in the warp core exploded. It was suspected that it was sabotage, and Starfleet brought Rear Admiral Norah Satie out of retirement to act as Starfleets arbitrator and to investigate what really happened. Worf found out that J'Dan had been using a Klingon hypospray, which he used to treat his condition, as an optical chip reader. J'Dan used it to send schematics of the dilithium chamber of the Enterprise to the Romulans. He was later found innocent of blowing up the dilithium articulation frame, but sent to Qo'noS for trial for spying on the Federation for the Romulans. (TNG: "The Drumhead")
