Understanding and recreating the world’s smallest motors
In the natural world there are motor proteins that can create motion by making use of heat. Wallenberg Scholar Heiner Linke wants to understand how they do it, and design proteins of this kind in the laboratory. “It’s a kind of nanotechnology that we haven’t started to use yet.”
Striving to improve understanding of signaling in the nervous system
Wallenberg Scholar Erik Lindahl is developing new methods to study membrane proteins in situ in tissue.
Building machines to solve our most complex problems
Wallenberg Scholar Johan Åkerman has his sights set on solving combinatorial optimization problems using large networks of oscillators.
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.
