Gary S. Grest is an American computational physicist at Sandia National Laboratories.[1]

He was awarded a B.Sc in physics (1971), an M.S in physics (1973) and a Ph.D in physics (1974) by the Louisiana State University. His interest is the theory and simulation of nanoscale phenomena.[2]

Since 1998 he has been a member of the technical staff of Sandia Laboratories, since 2009 an adjunct professor in department of chemistry, Clemson University and since 2013 a Distinguished Sandia National Laboratories Professor in the department of chemical and biological engineering, University of New Mexico.[2]

He was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 1989 "for contributions to the understanding of the kinetics of domain growth, amorphous glasses, disordered magnets, and polymer dynamics" [3] He was elected to the National Academy of Engineering in 2008.[4]

He received the Aneesur Rahman Prize for Computational Physics from the American Physical Society in 2008 for his work in computational physics[5] and the American Physical Society Polymer Physics Prize in 2011. [2]
