Artem R. Oganov (born 3 March 1975) is a Russian theoretical crystallographer, mineralogist, chemist, physicist, and materials scientist.[6] He is known mostly for his works on computational materials discovery and crystal structure prediction, studies of matter at extreme conditions (including matter of planetary interiors). Oganov graduated from Moscow State University in 1997 with summa cum laude and diploma in Crystallography and Crystal Chemistry. In 2002 he obtained a PhD degree in Crystallography from University College London, and in 2007 got a Habilitation degree from ETH Zurich. In 2008–2017 he was a Professor at Stony Brook University. In 2012 Oganov received the "1000 talents" professorship in China. In 2013, having won a megagrant awarded by the Russian Government, Oganov opened a laboratory at Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.[7] Since 2015 he is a Professor at Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology.
Oganov has published over 260 peer-reviewed articles (many in top journals, e.g. Nature, Science) and book chapters. He is an author of 5 patents. Total citations >20600, h-index 68 (Google scholar, as of July 2020).[8]
He is a laureate of several prestigious awards, including an ETH Latsis Prize,[9] Research Excellence Model of the European Mineralogical Union,[10]. In 2012, Oganov won a "1000 talents professor" title in China and in the same year became a Professor Honoris Causa of Yanshan University (China), in 2013 elected Fellow of the Mineralogical Association of America,[11] In 2016 and 2017 he was named as one of the most cited Russian scientists in Chemistry [12] and Physics,[13] respectively. In 2017 he was awarded the Gamow prize [14] and Concord prize,[15] In 2019, he received the Friendship Award,[16] the highest award given by Chinese government to foreign experts. In 2015 Oganov was elected Professor of the Russian Academy of Sciences.[17], and in 2017 he became a member [4] of the Academy of Europe Academia Europaea, and in 2020 elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry [18]. In 2011 he founded the Commission on Crystallography of Materials at the International Union of Crystallography. In 2017-2020 he served as a member of the Presidential council for science and education.[19]
Oganov has held over 10 invited professorships (Universita degli Studi di Milano, Lille'Polytech, University of Paris, University of Poitiers, Chinese University of Hong Kong, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, etc.). In 2011, Forbes magazine listed Oganov among "50 Russians who conquered the world".[20] In 2012, highly acclaimed cinema director, Laureate of State Prize Vladimir Gerchikov made a film "The color of a crystal" about Oganov,[21] in 2015 the celebrated TV journalist Leonid Parfenov made a film "Made by Russians" about him.[22] and another film about him appeared in 2018 on Kultura-TV channel.[23] In 2013, magazines "Russian reporter" and "Expert" have listed Oganov among 100 most influential Russians today.[24] His most significant works are in fields of computational materials discovery, in particular the effects of pressure on chemical bonding, and state of matter at extreme conditions (e.g. inside the Earth and other planets). He has developed novel methods of crystal structure prediction [25] that became basis of the USPEX code,[26] used by more than 6100 researchers worldwide. Among the highlights are the discovery of the structure of a superhard phase of boron, gamma-B,[27][28] transparent phase of sodium,[29] new carbon allotrope,[30] stability of MgSiO3 post-perovskite in the Earth's mantle,[31] prediction and synthesis of "forbidden" compounds (e.g., Na3Cl),[32][33] discovery of helium chemistry,[34] and creation of borophene - a 2D-monolayer of boron atoms, with great promises for future technologies.[35] Computational methods developed by Oganov open up the way to discovery of materials with desired properties.
Oganov speaks 5 languages (Russian, English, French, German, and Italian), is married, has four children and is a parishioner of St. Louis Catholic Church in Moscow.[36]
