I work at Voltron Data leading a lot of the build engineering and related work there. I was a Group Leader at NSLS-II (part of Brookhaven National Laboratory), and before that I was a Technical Leader at Kitware working on a number of open source scientific software projects including Avogadro, Open Chemistry, Tomviz, VTK, ParaView, CMake and others. I blog, have largely abandoned social media, and love living close to the beach.

I am passionate about writing portable, highly performant software that can run on Linux, macOS, Windows, and on the web. I have deep experience in C++, Qt, CMake and am pretty familiar with Python, TypeScript, React and related technologies. I was once a Gentoo developer, and I run Arch Linux as my preferred desktop/laptop and love keeping up with new developments in the technology world. I have contributed to a wide variety of open source projects over the years.

I am a physicist by training, completing a B.Sc. and Ph.D. in physics focusing on nanomaterial engineering. I used lots of materials characterization techniques including transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray and neutron techniques (mainly diffraction and reflectometry) as an experimentalist before making the leap to software. At the end of my Ph.D. I took part in Google Summer of Code as a student, then later a mentor and org admin.

I love science and software, trying to figure out where I might exist in the space the two occupy. I once gave a TEDx talk 'Open Up or Perish' shortly after my daughter was born that sums up my hopes for how we move science forward. I have given a few keynotes, many invited talks and many conference talks at software, open source and scientific conferences including OSCON, GTC, All Things Open, ACS, APS, ToScA, M&M, MRS and others.

Views are my own (obviously I would hope).

Marcus D. Hanwell's Projects

arptools

arrow

Apache Arrow is a multi-language toolbox for accelerated data interchange and in-memory processing

avogadro

Avogadro 1 is not under active development, the repository was archived in September 2021. Development of Avogadro 2 is being done at https://github.com/openchemistry/avogadrolibs. Avogadro is an advanced molecular editor designed for cross-platform use in computational chemistry, molecular modeling, bioinformatics, materials science, and related areas.

avogadro-squared

Avogadro superbuild project, builds Avogadro dependencies and then Avogadro itself

avogadro-super

First attempt at a Git super project - contains Avogadro and OpenBabel

avogadro-swireengine

A simple wire engine plugin example project built against the installed Avogadro library

avogadroapp

Avogadro is an advanced molecular editor designed for cross-platform use in computational chemistry, molecular modeling, bioinformatics, materials science, and related areas.

avogadrolibs

Avogadro libraries provide 3D rendering, visualization, analysis and data processing useful in computational chemistry, molecular modeling, bioinformatics, materials science, and related areas.
