Nico van der Vegt (born 1970 in Raalte) is a Dutch chemist and professor for computational physical chemistry at Technische Universität Darmstadt.
He received his Ph.D in Chemical Engineering from the University of Twente, The Netherlands, in 1998. From 1998 to 2002 he was lecturer at the University of Twente. Following postdoctoral work from 2002 to 2003 at the ETH Zürich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich), Switzerland, he led a research group at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Mainz, Germany. He was appointed as full professor for computational physical chemistry at the Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany, in 2009. His research interests center on the physical fundamentals of aqueous solvation, including Hofmeister ion chemistry and cosolvent effects, and multiscale modeling of soft matter.
