Tommy Cedervall interviewed on nanoplastic

Tommy Cedervall has been interviewed about nanoplastics on two different occations during September. WHO issued a report on an analysis of current research related to microplastics in drinking-water and Tommy was interviewed on the need for more research because we do not yet know how nanoplastics affect humans and nature.Later a research report from McGill University concluded that nanoplastics l

Martin Leijnse involved in awarded ERC Synergy Grant

Martin Leijnse and three researchers from University of Copenhagen have received in total 10 million Euro for an ERC Synergy project called ‘Foundations of nonlocal and nonabelian condensed-matter systems'. Here, nonlocal means that quasiparticles encode a quantum state that is hidden from any local measurement, while nonabelian means that exchange of quasiparticles changes their joint quantum sta

Solar cell research featured in Sydsvenskan

A feature in Sydsvenskan describes Tönu Pullerits' research on perovskites as a material for more efficient solar cells and describes the limitations with the current silicon solar cells. The reason for the feature is that a journal article by Tönu and colleagues has been chosen as one of the best on Perovskites by the Royal Society of Chemistry in Cambridge.Read more in Sydsvenskan (in Swedish) o
