Florencia Falkinhoff
(personal profile)
Dr. Florencia Falkinhoff is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization in Göttingen, Germany. Her research focuses on small-scale phenomena in turbulent flows, particularly in the turbulent dissipation range, as well as atmospheric dispersion and mixing in the atmospheric boundary layer.
Before becoming a postdoc at the MPI-DS, Dr. Falkinhoff received her Ph.D. in Physics from the École Normale Supérieure de Lyon (France). Her doctoral research focused on porous media and the hydrodynamics of fixed beds of particles, with funding from by IFP Energies Nouvelles, a French research organization that specializes in renewable energy and the environment. With a strong background in fluid dynamics, she obtained her M.Sc. in Physics at the University of Buenos Aires (Argentina), where she specialized in direct numerical simulations of particle-laden turbulent flows.
