Experienced researcher in various sub-fields of physics with a publication in medical physics.

About

Kyra Hendrickson has ample experience in both teaching and research. She obtained her Bachelor of Science degree in Physics and Applied Math from Lipscomb University in 2020. She obtained her Master of Science degree in Physics from the University of Minnesota, Duluth in 2023. Shortly after graduating, she served as an Instructor at UMND, teaching undergraduate physics courses. During her master's she served as a teaching assistant, providing guidance and support to students in the classroom and laboratory. In addition to her teaching experience, Kyra also has plenty computational physics research experience. As a Graduate Research Assistant at UMD, she did research in theoretical physics. She also completed a research internship at the Gastrointestinal SQUID Tech. Lab at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where she simulated HR-EGG data.
