Karl Håkansson

With PhD degree from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Engineering Mechanics and a MSc degree from Chalmers University of Technology in Engineering Physics, I currently work as a Senior Research Associate. I am a patent inventor and have co-authored articles in journals such as Nature Communications and ACS Nano.

My expertise and interest lays within sustainable raw materials from the forest, with a special focus on Nanocellulose. Further, the manufacturing processes, such as fibre spinning and 3D printing, along with material combinations towards electrical activation are topics that I concentrate on at the moment and think has a huge potential in the nearby future.

In my current role, I am responsible for the scientific and technical deliveries in projects of varying degree of complexity, size and length.
