• Cyrille Artho new director of CASTOR

  Cyrille Artho is the new Director of the CASTOR Software research centre. He’s lived in Japan for 11 years, where he worked on analysing networked software and testing together with software security. In his spare time, he likes to run in the forest close to KTH.

• A new comprehensive approach is needed in wireless research

  Challenges in the industry are increasing as we move towards a digitalised society where everything needs to be connected. The competition for the rare earth metals required in our batteries is intensifying, the question of energy supply has come to the forefront, and there is also a significant equity aspect, with a large part of the world's population still lacking access to 5G mobile devices and the internet.

• Space electronics in focus at Space Rendezvous

  Cosmic radiation causes electronics sent to space to break down just by being there. But there are KTH projects that make a difference, and they are in focus during the Space Rendezvous, which will be held on 2 November in Kista.

• Her first poster led to a victory at the EECS Winter Conference

  Han Xue, Division of Electronics and Embedded Systems and winner of the Poster Exhibition at the EECS Winter Conference. Tell us a bit about your research.

• "I'm not done!"

  Carl-Mikael ”Bellman” Zetterling, this year you have been at KTH for 30 years, how did you end up at KTH?

• Researchers found leak in cryptographic algorithm

  New and better methods are needed to protect sensitive data from hackers. This is the conclusion KTH researchers made when they managed to break an implementation of CRYSTALS-Kyber, a post quantum cryptography algorithm considered resistant to quantum computer attacks.

• The visit to NYC gave him new colleagues and new insights for his research

  A desire to strengthen his knowledge, meet new people, and create new connections for his research led Corrado Capriata to a seven-month research exchange.

• Mikael Östling is elected to ECS as the first Swedish fellow

  Mikael Östling is back as a full-time professor at EECS in KTH Kista after six years as the Deputy President at KTH. As the only Swede, he is now appointed a Fellow of the Electrochemical Society (ECS). From before, Östling is also a fellow of the IEEE, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.

• This is EECS’ contribution to ForskarFredag

  Friday, 30 September, is the time for ForskarFredag at Vetenskapens Hus. Representants from EECS will be competing in presentation technology, lectures in swallowable microsystems and presenting students' projects created in advanced graphics and electrical engineering.

• From implantable medical devices to spintronics-based systems

  The use of new implantable medical sensors in the body requires new ways of supplying them with energy. Ana Rusu’s group develops smart and energy-efficient integrated circuits and systems towards miniaturized and life-long, power-independent biosensors.

• Fast communication with spintronics is possible, models show

  One step closer to better and faster communication in 5G and 6G has been taken. Ericsson and KTH will now evaluate the technology for two years, and the hope is to get closer to a prototype that can be used in just a few years.

• Research behind the efficiency of mobile phone networks - one of the most highly cited

  The research behind using mobile phone masts with many small electrically steerable antennas has been included in Clarivate's annual Clarivate Highly Cited Researchers 2023 list. ”This is of course very exciting and honourable. Even if only my name is mentioned in this context, it is a team effort where many PhD students, postdocs and colleagues have contributed,” says Emil Björnson, Professor of Wireless Communication.

• Funding boost on blood clot prevention

  Vinnova grants 4 MSEK for the development of next-generation Venous Thromboembolism prevention.

• Research wants to change fetal monitoring at birth

  Researchers at KTH and KI want to reduce the risk of organ failure in children during labour. Therefore, they have started a programme, "Continuous lactate measurement and preventive hypoxia during delivery".

• The mysteries of space - the theme of Space Rendezvous in Kista

  Once again this year, KTH Space Centre, together with Smartare Elektroniksystem and Visit Kista, invites you to Space Rendezvous in Kista. This year's theme is the mysteries of space - from comets to hot planets. The event takes place on the afternoon of 20 March at Electrum.

• The dream: an economically sustainable fusion reactor 

  Fusion is the sustainable energy source of the future. However, there are still complex obstacles to this technology that can damage reactors. Researcher Mathias Hoppe is developing advanced computational methods to study how to prevent runaway electrons.
