Edmund Chadwick is a Reader in Applied Mathematics at the University of Salford, serving as Line Manager for Mathematics since 2025 and previously as Head of Mathematics since 2010. He is affiliated with the School of Science, Engineering & Environment and contributes to the Centre for Future Engineering. His academic career spans over three decades with significant contributions to fluid dynamics and mathematical physics. Dr Chadwick earned his B.Sc. Hons. in Maths and Physics from the University of Manchester in 1988, followed by a Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from the same institution in 1992. He holds the prestigious designation of Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (FIMA). His research focuses on fundamental fluid dynamics problems, particularly the Navier-Stokes equations, boundary integral methods, and mathematical modeling of fluid flow. His most significant contribution is an Existence and Smoothness proof of the Navier-Stokes problem, one of the Clay Mathematics Institute's Millennium Prize Problems, published in 2023. He has also developed novel approaches including the NSlet representation for Navier-Stokes equations and has made contributions to slender body theory and boundary layer flow. His recent publications demonstrate a strong focus on boundary integral methods for fluid dynamics problems, with particular emphasis on the Navier-Stokes equations. His work spans theoretical developments, numerical implementations, and experimental validations, showing a comprehensive approach to fluid dynamics research with applications in aerospace engineering, robotics, and climate modeling.

He has secured significant research funding as Principal Investigator on 14 separate projects with grants from EPSRC, STFC, TSB, HESTEM, IMA, and NCTL, and is named in 19 separate grant awards, including an ongoing EPSRC grant verifying his Navier-Stokes formulation for industry applications. Dr Chadwick leads the fluid dynamics research group within the Centre for Future Engineering, focusing on developing novel mathematical approaches to fluid flow problems with applications in aerospace, robotics, and environmental modeling. He has organized the United Kingdom Boundary Integral Methods Conference and serves as University of Salford representative for the Head Of Department Of Mathematics Sciences (HODOMS) and Isaac Newton Institute (INI).
