Russian-born Dutch–British physicist (born 1958)
Sir Andre Konstantin Geim (Russian : Андре́й Константи́нович Гейм ; born 21 October 1958; IPA1 pronunciation: ɑːndreɪ gaɪm) is a Russian-born Dutch–British physicist working in England in the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Manchester .[ 20]
Geim was awarded the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics jointly with Konstantin Novoselov for his work on graphene .[ 21] [ 22] He is Regius Professor of Physics and Royal Society Research Professor at the National Graphene Institute . Geim was previously awarded an Ig Nobel Prize in 2000 for levitating a frog using its intrinsic magnetism. He is the first and only individual, as of 2024, to have received both Nobel and Ig Nobel prizes, for which he holds a Guinness World Record.
