'''Hannah Price''' is a British physicist and Professor of Theoretical Physics at the University of Birmingham. Her research considers topological phases in photonics and gases. She was awarded the 2018 James Clerk Maxwell Medal and Prize of the Institute of Physics.
== Early life and education == Price attended Malvern St James for high school and completed sixth form in Italy.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Malvern Alumnae Profiles {{!}} Malvern St James Girls' School |url=https://www.malvernstjames.co.uk/msj-community/oga/malvern-alumnae-100/profiles/~board/ma100/post/dr-hannah-price |access-date=2023-12-30 |website=www.malvernstjames.co.uk |language=en-US}}</ref> She studied natural sciences at the University of Cambridge.

In Trento she studied quantum phenomena using ultracold atoms, including the Quantum Hall effect.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Four-Dimensional Quantum Hall Effect with Ultracold Atoms - Theoretical Nanophysics - LMU Munich |url=https://www.theorie.physik.uni-muenchen.de/lsschollwoeck/talks_seminars/solid_state_theory/archiv_2019/archiv_20162/archiv_20153/20151209_price/index.html |access-date=2023-12-30 |website=www.theorie.physik.uni-muenchen.de |language=en}}</ref>
== Research and career == In 2017 Price joined the University of Birmingham. Her research considers materials for quantum technologies, including ultracold atomic gases and topological systems. She combines photonics and quantum optics to simulate and understand quantum phenomena.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Professor Hannah Price |url=https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/staff/profiles/physics/price-hannah.aspx |access-date=2023-12-30 |website=University of Birmingham |language=en-GB}}</ref>
