Edward John Hinch , called John, often cited by EJ Hinch, (born March 4, 1947 ) is a British applied mathematician. He is Professor of Hydrodynamics at Cambridge University and a Fellow of Trinity College (Cambridge) .

Hinch received his doctorate in 1972 from George Keith Batchelor at Cambridge University ( The Mechanics of Suspensions of Particles in Fluids, with an Additional Section on Convection Due to a Moving Heat Source ). He was then an Assistant Lecturer in Mathematics at Cambridge, Lecturer in 1974, Reader in 1994 and Professor from 1998. From 1971 he was a Fellow of Trinity College.

He dealt with micro-hydrodynamics, colloidal dispersion, flow through porous media, polymer rheology and hydrodynamics of non-Newtonian fluids. He also deals with industrial applications.

In 2010 he received the hydrodynamics prize of the American Physical Society and in the same year the European Mechanics Society Fluid Dynamics Prize. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society , a Fellow of the American Physical Society and the National Academy of Engineering (2012), a member of the Academia Europaea and a Knight of the Ordre national du Mérite (1997).
