Marshall Bern

Co-Founder & VP, Research at Protein Metrics

Marshall Bern is an obsessive problem solver, starting with chess and bridge in high school and college, and later in scientific pursuits including signal and image processing, combinatorial optimization, computational geometry, and bioinformatics. His particular passion is algorithm design and analysis.

Prior to Protein Metrics, Marshall was a Principal Scientist, Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC), where he invented groundbreaking algorithms for origami design, finite-element mesh generation, and surface reconstruction from scanned point sets. He has about 20 patents and about 200 peer-reviewed publications in leading computer science, mathematics, and chemistry journals.

Marshall received a B.A. in mathematics from Yale, M.A. in applied mathematics and statistics from University of Texas at Austin, and a Ph.D. in computer science from the University of California, Berkeley.

When he’s not inventing algorithms, Marshall grows unusual plants and enjoys travel with his family.
