Inside the World of Graphene: A Conversation with Nobel Laureate Konstantin Novoselov

Nobel Prize winner Konstantin Novoselov was a guest of the ABC department during the International Engineering Festival, which took place at the Politecnico di Milano last September.

On that occasion, he gave a short interview to Frontiere, the magazine that gives a voice to researchers at the Politecnico.

Curiosity, playfulness, and intuition: these are the ingredients that led Konstantin Novoselov to the discovery of graphene, a turning point in research on two-dimensional materials.

In the interview published in Frontiere, Novoselov explains how creativity and international collaboration have guided his research, and how graphene is finding increasingly wide applications, from electronics to telecommunications and medicine.

It is a story that combines science, imagination, and passion, inviting us to view research as a journey of continuous discovery.
