Martin Seifrid
Martin received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2019. He worked in the Center for Polymers and Organic Solids from 2014 to 2019 under the supervision of Professor Guillermo C. Bazan. As a graduate student, he used both computational and experimental methods to study molecular design and structure-processing-property relationships in molecular and polymeric organic semiconductors.
He carried out his postdoctoral research in the Matter Lab at the University of Toronto with Prof. Alán Aspuru-Guzik. There, he developed self-driving laboratories for autonomous molecular design, automated synthesis and characterization, and organic laser materials.
In August 2023, Martin joined the Department of Materials Science & Engineering at North Carolina State University.
He has published over 30 papers and holds multiple patents.
