Matthew Peter Headrick (born ca. 1973[6]) is Associate Professor of Physics at Brandeis University.[2][3][1] He received his PhD from Harvard University in 2002 under Shiraz Minwalla and his A.B from Princeton University in 1994.[3] His publications are highly cited, and he has a high h-index.[7]
Headrick is notable as the 1990 winner of the Intel (then Westinghouse) Science Talent Search while a high school student at the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools, an event that generated intense media coverage.[4][8] Headrick appeared on talk shows including Today.[6][9] In response to the award, then-Illinois Gov. Thompson declared a "Matthew Headrick Day"[6][10] and the US House of Representatives also made a proclamation.[6]
