Hanneke Gelderblom is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Applied Physics at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). Her research focuses on fluid dynamics with particular interest in capillary flow phenomena, droplet dynamics, biofluids, evaporation-driven self-assembly, and liquid fragmentation due to laser-liquid interaction. Key areas of her work include micropattern formation, the deformation and fragmentation of liquid droplets, and the impact of laser pulses. Hanneke studies a variety of liquids, such as water, liquid metals, and biofluids like bacteria suspensions, integrating theory, experiments, and numerical analysis to address challenges in fundamental fluid dynamics while also considering applications in industry, biology, and health. Her future research will delve deeper into capillary flow phenomena, especially regarding biofluids, exploring how biological materials affect interfacial hydrodynamics and how interfacial flows can control the motion and deposition of biological matter. This interplay poses rich and challenging physics with significant applications in medicine and public health.
Specific departments like Industrial Design require a portfolio. Programs like Data Science and AI require a GRE-General test for certain international backgrounds.
