Professor in Chemistry · Texas A&M University
Biography
Biographical Sketch of Michael B. Hall Professor Michael B. Hall is Davidson Professor of Science and Founding Director of the Laboratory for Molecular Simulation Professor Hall is a leading authority in computational chemistry and the application of computer technology to problems that range from materials science to protein folding. Professor Hall’s research career is reflected in over 400 peer-reviewed publications in major journals, continuous research grants from both the National Science Foundation and The Welch Foundation for over 45 years, and training 35 postdoctoral associates and 38 graduate students. Professor Hall was born and raised in Pennsylvania and obtained his B. S. degree in Chemistry from Juniata College. Following his Ph. D. work with Richard Fenske at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, he was awarded an AEI postdoctoral fellowship in theoretical chemistry at the University of Manchester, England, where he studied with Ian Hillier.
