Vladimir FalkoThe University of Manchester, UK
Vladimir Falko is Director of the National Graphene Institute and Professor of Condensed Matter Theory at the University of Manchester. His career started with the PhD at the Institute for Solid State Physics RAS, followed by postdoctoral experience at Max-Planck-Institute in Stuttgart and Oxford University, and 19 years of service at Lancaster University. Falkowas responsible formany advances in the theory of localisation and quantum transport in mesoscopic systems,andhe made substantial contributions towards understanding of electronic and optical properties of graphene, including discovery of bilayer graphene.His current research interests include modelling of graphene-based electronic and optoelectronic systems and development of theories of electronic and optical properties of various atomically thin two-dimensional crystals and their heterostructures. His career has been marked by Humboldt Fellowship, EPSC Advanced Fellowship, ERC Advanced Investigator and Synergy Grants, and Royal Society Wolfson Foundation Research Merit Award.Falko played a pivotal role in building up the European research community in graphene and two-dimensional materials by setting the ‘Graphene Week’ conference series and by being one of the organisers and leaders of the European Graphene Flagship Project. From 2014, he is the founding Editor-in-Chief of the IoP Journal ‘2D Materials’ (with 2016 IF of 9.6).
