Research Area: Computational chemistry

Dr. Martin’s research focusses on quantum chemical calculations of through-space (as opposed to through-bond) NMR shielding and deshielding effects of various organic functional groups. His group’s research has shown that the traditional model for predicting such effects is incorrect, and that in some cases the effect is actually opposite that of the traditional model’s prediction.  His research is funded by the Petroleum Research Foundation of the American Chemical Society.  Another of his interests is developing grid computing applications for quantum chemical computations.   This project involves collaborators in the departments of computer science, biological sciences, and mathematics and statistics.
