Gabriele Messori Winner of the Emerging Alumni Leader Award 2021
2021-01-12
Imperial College London has selected Gabriele Messori to for the Emerging Alumni Leader Award 2021.
The award recognises and celebrates rising research stars, innovators, game-changers and the next generation of leaders.
"When someone wins an award or is interviewed, everyone focuses on the individual. My research experience so far has taught me almost nothing that happens is the merit of a single person. My ideas are often developed thanks to the support and interaction I’ve had from my colleagues over many years.
I was surprised when I heard about this award. I feel my main strengths are in the world of science. The award is an important confirmation for me that working on how science interacts with other disciplines is an important thing to do."

“You don’t need to be a genius to become a researcher”
What do researchers do? Does one need to be a genius or like to study? No, not at all. In the new children’s book “Forskardrömmar – berättelser för nyfikna barn” (”Researcher dreams – stories for curious children”, published in Swedish), we are getting to know researchers as children and find out what it was that made them choose research. The stories are funny, exciting, and sometimes even sad, something that makes the book easy to read. The book aims to demystify research and motivate more children to choose to study and do research.
