Andrei Geim
Andrei Geim is a Russian-born physicist, renowned for his groundbreaking work in condensed matter physics, particularly in the isolation and characterization of graphene, for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2010 alongside Konstantin Novoselov. Born in 1958 in Sochi, Russia, he received his education at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology and later emigrated to the Netherlands in the 1990s, acquiring Dutch citizenship. Geim has held academic positions in several countries, including the UK, Germany, and the Netherlands, and has been recognized as a member of various scientific academies. Recently, he made headlines when he was stripped of his Dutch citizenship due to his naturalization as a British citizen, a decision he described as 'sad and strange.'
