About Dr. Kelli Hendrickson

Research Associate Professor, Department of Mathematics, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Member of Carolina Center for Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics

Dr. Kelli Hendrickson is a fluid dynamicist with interest in mathematical and computational modeling to solve complex fluid dynamics problems that have the potential to impact our day-to-day lives. As an engineer, Kelli enjoys applying mathematics and physics to creatively solve problems that sit at the intersection between engineering application and mathematical modeling. Whatever the research topic, her overarching principle is striving to understand the fundamental physical problem to better inform the models and methods she develops. Kelli enjoys interdisciplinary collaborations, mentoring and advising students and postdocs, and working with experienced researchers to find commonalities to move forward on solving hard problems.
