Dmitry Garanin is a Russian-American physicist known for his work in theoretical condensed matter physics. He is a professor in the Department of Physics & Astronomy at Lehman College[1] of The City University of New York and a faculty member in the physics department of the CUNY Graduate Center.[2]
Garanin attended the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology from 1972 to 1978, graduating with a B.S. and M.S. in physics. He obtained his Ph.D. in physics from Moscow State University in 1985. Garanin worked in the I. E. Tamm Division of Theoretical Physics of the Lebedev Physical Institute in Moscow, then at the Moscow Technological University (MIREA). In 1992 he emigrated to Germany with his family, where he worked at the University of Hamburg, the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems in Dresden, and at the University of Mainz. In 2005, he became an associate professor at the Department of Physics & Astronomy, Lehman College and a member of the doctoral faculty of the CUNY Graduate Center. He was promoted to full professor in 2013. Garanin has authored or coauthored over 150 research papers in the field of Solid-State Physics / Magnetism.[3]
In 2013, Garanin became a Fellow of the American Physical Society.[4]
