Dr. Novoselov is a Royal Society Research Fellow in School of Physics & Astronomy at the University of Manchester. In 2004, Dr. Novoselov discovered graphene (jointly with Prof. A. Geim), a fundamentally new material that may revolutionize electronics.

Dr. Kostya Novoselov has published over 80 peer-refereed research papers (mainly as the principal/corresponding author), including 9 Nature and Science articles and more than 15 papers in Nature Materials, Nature Physics, Nature Nanotechnology, Reviews of Modern Physics, Physical Review Letters, PNAS. Over 70 invited talks at conferences during the last 5 years. Novoselov's two papers in Science 2004 and Nature 2005 are the most cited papers on graphene and "have opened up a fast moving front" (according to ISI's Essential Science IndicatorsSM). The Science paper has also been acknowledged as "one of the most cited recent papers in the field of Physics" (according to the ISI citation index).

Dr. Novoselov received a number of prestigious awards, including 2007 Nicholas Kurti prize, Europhysics prize, International Union of Pure and Applied Science, Young Scientist Prize and Technology Review-35 Young Innovator Award by the editors of "Technology Review" (all 2008).
