We are delighted to congratulate Prof. Jonathan Coleman on being awarded the 2026 Blaise Pascal Medal for Materials Science by the EurASc European Academy of Sciences
The Blaise Pascal Medals honour individuals who have made outstanding contributions to science and technology, while advancing excellence in research and education.
Prof. Coleman’s award recognises his transformative impact on nanoscience and advanced materials research, particularly his pioneering work on scalable liquid-phase exfoliation methods for the production of graphene and other two-dimensional materials. This groundbreaking research fundamentally changed how these materials can be manufactured and deployed at industrial scale.
Since AMBER’s inception, Prof. Coleman’s work has been central to one of the centre’s key research themes and continues to underpin much of our scientific activity today.
We are proud to see this exceptional achievement recognised internationally and extend our warmest congratulations to Jonathan on this well-deserved honour.
AMBER has a strong emphasis on collaboration. Central to AMBER’s research remit are collaborative projects performed with industry partners, and working with academic, industry and wider stakeholder on international and national research programmes.
