Nico van der Vegt (born 1970 in Raalte) is a Dutch chemist and a professor for computational physical chemistry at Technische Universität Darmstadt
Career
Van der Vegt studied chemical engineering and obtained his PhD from the University of Twente, The Netherlands, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Wim Briels and Prof. Dr.-Ing. Heiner Strathmann in 1998.[1] From 1998 to 2002, he was a lecturer at the University of Twente. Following this, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at ETH Zürich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich), Switzerland with Prof. Dr. Wilfred van Gunsteren from 2002 to 2003.[1] He then led a research group at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Mainz, Germany. In 2009, he was appointed as a full professor for computational physical chemistry at the Technische Universität Darmstadt.[2]
His main research interests are in computational soft matter, particularly in understanding the thermodynamics and physical fundamentals of aqueous solvation, including Hofmeister ion chemistry and cosolvent effects.[3][4][5] His work also includes major development efforts to coarse-grained modeling of soft matter systems[6][7] and the calculation of Kirkwood-Buff integrals.[8] To this end, he works on developing and applying computational tools for multi-scale molecular dynamics simulations of liquids, polymers, and biological materials. As of May 2022, he has authored more than 170 scientific publications (ResearcherID: B-3441-2010).
