Breaking boundaries of organic electronics
Organic materials have the potential to shape the electronics of the future — provided they can match the performance of traditional semiconductors. Wallenberg Scholar Feng Gao is well on the way to succeeding, with research that may pave the way for a new era of sustainable energy solutions and technologies that mimic brain functions.
The first buds of spring – one of nature’s great mysteries
Rishikesh Bhalerao aims to solve one of nature’s great mysteries: how do plants, without a brain or a nervous system, interpret and respond to the noisy world around them?
Forest growth slowing due to water shortage
Growth in Swedish forests has declined over the past decade – in sharp contrast to all forecasts.
“Forests are suffering from a shortage of water. It’s vital we find out why this is,” says Wallenberg Scholar Hjalmar Laudon.

Light meets matter and opens the door to medicines of the future
Professor Timur Shegai is bringing together two research fields on a microscopic scale to control the interaction between light and matter. His research team is using tiny cavities to capture light and molecules in a complex dance that can be used to create difficult-to-achieve phenomena and new chemical reactions. The research paves the way for a wide range of applications: from drug development to sustainable energy solutions.
