Martin Rahm is a postdoc at Cornell. Among other things, he currently works on predicting the chemistry and structure of alkali - transition metal hydrides under pressure, as well a gold hydrides by computational modeling. After obtaining his PhD from The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm in 2010, under the supervision of Tore Brinck, Martin moved to the group of Karl Christe, at the University of Southern California, where he for three years focused on the prediction and synthesis of high energy density materials.
