Eun-jin Kim

Eun-jin Kim is a Professor at Coventry University's Research Centre for Fluid and Complex Systems. Her work bridges theoretical physics and applied systems, focusing on non-equilibrium processes, turbulence, and self-organisation in plasmas, fluids, and biosystems. She holds a PhD from the University of Chicago and previously held roles at the University of Sheffield, University of Leeds, and others.

• Education: PhD in Physics (University of Chicago), BSc in Physics (Yonsei University)

Her research explores complexity in systems like fusion plasmas, cardiovascular dynamics, and stellar magnetic fields using statistical mechanics and information theory. Recent work includes studies on plasma turbulence, cardiac homeostasis breakdown, and solar magnetic field evolution.

She has supervised over 15 PhD students and postdoctoral researchers. Key contributions include developing the information length framework to model system complexity and advancing non-equilibrium statistical theory for fusion plasmas.

• Awards: 2020 Exceptional Performance Award, 2023 EPSRC Fellowship

Active in international collaborations, her lab focuses on plasma confinement optimization and multiscale biosystem modeling. Current projects include cardiac dynamics control and fractional calculus applications in transport phenomena.
