Long-term research grants awarded to 27 new Wallenberg Academy Fellows
Semiconductor bandgap key to future green electronics
Semiconductor chips that are smaller, more efficient and cheaper are the goal of Vanya Darakchieva’s research. She wants to develop semiconductors with a wider bandgap, thereby enhancing the performance of the material.
Revolutionary diagnostic blood test for Alzheimer’s
Wallenberg Clinical Scholar Oskar Hansson’s team is developing techniques for diagnosing Alzheimer’s as early and as accurately as possible, and for monitoring the disease or the impact of treatment.
Groundbreaking malaria research could save millions of lives
Wallenberg Scholar Oliver Billker is heading a groundbreaking research project on the malaria parasite and its complex interaction with the mosquitoes that spread it.
Imaging the brain’s complex information flow
Understanding how information flows through the brain’s neural network is a sought-after and elusive goal. Wallenberg Scholar Richard Neutze intends to take important steps toward that goal using advanced X-ray technology and his many years of research on the molecules of life.
