Gregory A. Voth
Haig P. Papazian Distinguished Service Professor of Chemistry, the James Franck Institute and the Institute for Biophysical Dynamics, Director, Center for Multiscale Theory and Simulation, Senior Fellow, Computation Institute, Senior Scientist, Argonne National Laboratory

Gregory Voth has developed leading expertise in the development and application of integrated theoretical and computational methods to study problems involving complex condense-phase systems, including proteins, membranes, liquids and renewable energy materials.

He has pioneered an approach known as “multiscale coarse graining,” which reduces the “resolution” of molecular-scale...View profile
