NanoLundian Kimberly Dick is, for more than a decade, a Wallenberg Academy Fellow, and studies the building of new materials by working on an atom-scale. As put in the film: If an atom were the size of a Lego piece, lying in a hand, the hand would be the size of planet Earth. “Big discoveries are made when we realize something fundamental and yet surprising about nature”, she says.

Corrosion-resistant metallic materials are required in applications such as rocket engines, nuclear power stations and chemical industry. An alloy of nickel, chromium, and molybdenum is often used. However, a new study shows that this alloy rusts in a previously unknown way. Buildings, modes of transport, artworks, and music instruments – we encounter metallic materials almost everywhere in societ
