Natalia Perkins is a Professor at the School of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Minnesota. She is a theoretical condensed matter physicist, and investigates properties of materials from a fundamental microscopic basis. She is particularly interested in phenomena observed in magnetic materials. Her work develops and analyzes microscopic models of electronic systems with strong interplay between charge, spin, orbital degrees of freedom, and geometric frustration. Perkins received her M.S. in Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics from Moscow State University, Russia, and graduated with honors in 1994. She received her Ph.D. in Theoretical Condensed matter Physics at the Lomonosov Moscow State University (Russia) in 1997. Perkins was elected Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2016. In 2017, she became an Emmy Noether Fellow at the Perimeter Institute in Waterloo, Canada
