Si Karen Keskulla Uhlenbeck (namundag, Agosto 24, 1942) sarong Amerikanong matematiko. Siya propesor emeritus sa matematika sa University of Texas sa Austin, kun saen pugol niya an Regent Chair kan Sid W. Richardson Foundation.[1][2][3] Sa presente siya sarong visiting associate sa Institute for Advanced Study asin sarong visiting senior research scholar sa Princeton University.

Si Uhlenbeck nasikwit an 2019 Premyo Abel huli sa saiyang "pambihirang kahamanan" sa geometric partial differential equations, gauge theory, asin integrable systems, asin an pundamental na epekto kaining saiyang trabaho sa analisis, geometry asin mathematical physics."[4] Siya an pinakaenot na babae nanggana kan siring na premyo.[5]
