Historian and Physician
National Institutes of Health

As an historian and physician, Dr. Martensen’s interests range widely across medical practice, biomedical science, and culture. Perhaps that is why doing historical research at the National Institutes of Health appeals to him strongly, as the agency’s range of inquiry and impact have shaped biomedical research methods and contributed to the public’s perception of medicine. In addition to his service at NIH, he is appointed as a lecturer in the Department of Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Martensen is serving in a personal capacity.

Educated at Harvard (B.A.), Dartmouth (M.D.), and the University of California-San Francisco( M.A. and Ph.D.), Martensen has held several university professorships, including service that involved leading a history of medicine museum and archive, prior to joining the NIH in October 2007.
