Mark John Bowick (born 1957) is a theoretical physicist in condensed matter theory and high energy physics.
[3] In 1983, he received his Ph.D. in theoretical physics from the California Institute of Technology, where he held an Earle C. Anthony Graduate Fellowship.
[1] Bowick's research interests include symmetry breaking,[13] the interplay of order and geometry,[14] topological defects,[15] building blocks for supramolecular self-assembly,[16] membrane statistical mechanics,[17] shaped structures,[18] and common themes in condensed matter and particle physics.
[20] Syracuse honored Bowick with two commendations:[24] the Chancellor's Citation for Exceptional Academic Achievement in 2006,[25] and the William Wasserstrom Prize for Excellence in Graduate Teaching and Advising in 2009.
