About
Douglas S. Martin (he/him)
Professor of Physics
I’m a biophysicist, using physics to understand the foundations of living systems. I spend most of my time on microscope development and on studying the skeleton of biological cells, both with a host of talented undergraduate researchers.
I teach classes across the physics curriculum, from Biophysics and Optics to Quantum Computing and General Relativity. I’m also part of the pre-health advising team here at Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº, supporting students interested in dentistry or medicine.
