Bert de Jong Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA
Bert de Jong earned his doctorate in theoretical chemistry in 1998 from the University of Groningen in the Netherlands. He earned his masters in chemistry from the University of Groningen, the Netherlands in 1993. He was a postdoctoral fellow at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory before transitioning to a staff member in 2000, eventually leading the High-Performance Software Development Group responsible for the parallel computational chemistry code NWChem at the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory. In 2013 he moved to Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to lead the Computational Chemistry, Materials, and Climate, which advances scientific computing by developing and enhancing methodologies, algorithms and software applications in physical sciences disciplines, as well as working with experimental scientists to tackle addressing problems in chemistry and materials science. He has performed research and published on topics including computational electronic structure, heavy element chemistry, quantum computing and high performance computational chemistry and physics.
