Professor Vladimir Fal’ko

Professor Vladimir Fal’ko MAE is a condensed matter theorist who made fundamental contributions towards understanding physical properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials, including graphene, 2D transition metals dichalcogenides, simple-metal chalcogenides, moiré superlattice effects in 2D materials and twistronic structures (h-index 66, Clarivate Highly Cited Researcher in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2021, 2022). Fal’ko initiated the Graphene Week Conference series (which runs annually since 2006), during 2014-2021 he was the founding Editor-in-Chief of the IoP 2D Materials Journal, and he is among the leaders of the EU Graphene Flagship Project. Since 2015, Fal’ko is Director of National Graphene Institute at Manchester and the Champion of 2D Materials Theme in the UK’s Henry Royce Institute for Advanced Materials.
