Professor of Chemistry and Photon Sciences; Stanford University
Todd Martinez, Ph.D., is Professor of Chemistry and Photon Sciences at Stanford University in Stanford, California. He also serves as Professor of Photon Science at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in Menlo Park, California.
Todd’s research is focused on designing molecular systems with desired functions from first principles by developing novel simulation methods to bridge the gap between traditional molecular dynamics and quantum chemistry. Current research in the Martínez lab aims to make molecular modeling both predictive and routine.
Dr. Martinez earned a doctor of philosophy degree in chemistry from UCLA in Los Angeles, California and performed his postdoctoral training at UCLA and Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Israel.
