David C. Muddiman is an American chemist and the Jacob and Betty Belin distinguished professor of chemistry at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, North Carolina. His research is focused on developing multi-omic mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) based platforms including software and innovative ionization methods.{{cite web |url=https://chemistry.sciences.ncsu.edu/people/dcmuddim/ |title=Dave Muddiman | Department of Chemistry | NC State University |format= |accessdate=2019-04-20}}

He received his B.S. in Chemistry with a Minor in Business (1990) from Gannon University and a Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh in Bioanalytical Chemistry (1995) under the auspices of the late David M. Hercules, and then carried out a post-doctoral fellowship at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (1995–1997) under the direction of Richard D. Smith. His independent academic career prior to his appointment at NC State University were at Virginia Commonwealth University (1997–2002) and the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine (2002–2005).{{cite journal |title=Focus in Honor of David Muddiman, Recipient of the 2010 Biemann Medal | SpringerLink |journal= Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry|volume=22 |issue=8 |pages=1299–300 |doi=10.1007/s13361-011-0169-x |pmid=21953182 |year=2011 |last1=Brodbelt |first1=J. |doi-access=free |bibcode= 2011JASMS..22.1299B}}
