Marcos Nogueira Eberlin (born 4 March 1959 [1] ) is a Brazilian chemist and former professor at the Institute of Chemistry of the University of Campinas. He is a member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences and received the Brazilian National Order of Scientific Merit in 2005 and the Thomson Medal in 2016. [1]

Eberlin discovered the Eberlin Reaction during his work on gas phase ion chemistry, and he and his research group introduced EASI [2] (Easy Ambient Sonic-spray Ionization), an ionization technique used in mass spectrometry.

Eberlin is an advocate of intelligent design in Brazil, [3] [4] on which he also lectures and he has signed the Dissent From Darwinism statement. [5] [6] He is a creationist also, and has said that evolution theory is a fallacy. [7]

His daughter, Livia S. Eberlin, [8] is also a chemist who won the MacArthur "Genius" Fellowship in 2018 for her research on the use of mass spectrometry to diagnose cancer. [9] Eberlin and his daughter have worked together on a different project, using mass spectrometry to detect counterfeit money. [8]
