'''Hannah Price''' is a British physicist and Professor of Theoretical Physics at the [University of Birmingham](/source/University_of_Birmingham). Her research considers topological phases in photonics and gases. She was awarded the 2018 [James Clerk Maxwell Medal and Prize](/source/James_Clerk_Maxwell_Medal_and_Prize) of the [Institute of Physics](/source/Institute_of_Physics).

== Early life and education ==
Price attended [Malvern St James](/source/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](/source/Natural_Sciences_(Cambridge)) at the [University of Cambridge](/source/University_of_Cambridge).

In Trento she studied quantum phenomena using ultracold atoms, including the [Quantum Hall effect](/source/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](/source/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>
