Dr. Chris Martenson is the creator of The End of Money (live) and The Crash Course (on-line) economic seminar series, has extensive experience analyzing and communicating financial information, and publishes a weekly newsletter on the economy and finance (located at http://chrismartenson.com). Dr. Martenson combines a scientist's attention to fact and analysis (PhD, Duke University, Pathology and Toxicology) with a solid understanding of finance and economics (MBA, Cornell, Finance) with strategic thinking. He currently operates a website devoted to spreading financial and economic awareness that is visited by over 10,000 visitors each day. The Crash Course has been viewed more than 250,000 times and is currently being made into a DVD and book. His past work has involved the development and oversight of $100M+ budgets, using portfolio decision tools to enhance governance & prioritization efforts, and investigating how neurons work. He has been published in the scientific journal Nature, consulted to fortune 50 companies, and lectured and written extensively on economic and financial topics. His diverse background allows him to synthesize complex subjects across diverse fields. In the end, though, he is a proud father and a concerned citizen and this is what drives his work.
