Katrin Wendland
Katrin Wendland (born 1970)[1] is a German mathematical physicist who works as a professor at the University of Freiburg.[2]
Wendland earned a diploma in mathematics from the University of Bonn in 1996, and a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Bonn in 2000, under the supervision of Werner Nahm. After being a lecturer and then senior lecturer at the University of Warwick from 2002 to 2006, she returned to Germany as a professor at the University of Augsburg, where she held the Chair for Analysis and Geometry. She moved to Freiburg in 2011.[2]
In 2009, Wendland was given the Medal for special merits for Bavaria in a united Europe by the Bavarian government.[2] In 2010 she was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians, with a talk entitled "On the geometry of singularities in quantum field theories". In 2012 she became one of the inaugural fellows of the American Mathematical Society.[3] She was elected to the Akademie der Wissenschaften und der Literatur in 2013.[2]
