The Human Protein Atlas is a world-class Swedish research initiative that maps all proteins in the human body - the key to understanding health and disease at the cellular level.
By making this knowledge freely available to researchers worldwide, the project is accelerating the development of precision medicine, improving diagnostics and paving the way for new treatments for everything from cancer to autoimmune diseases.

KTH conducts pioneering research in robotics and artificial intelligence with the aim of developing robots that can not only see and act, but also understand and interact with humans in complex environments. The society of the future will be characterised by robots in our homes, workplaces and industry. They will act as
assistants, not as replacements. These robots will make everyday life easier, increase safety and take over tasks that are monotonous, dirty or dangerous.

Chronic inflammation is one of the biggest global health challenges of our time. It is not only linked to autoimmune diseases such as rheumatism, MS and inflammatory bowel disease - but is also behind many cardiovascular diseases, the leading cause of death worldwide. Despite the multi-billion dollar market for anti-inflammatory drugs, there are currently no methods to treat inflammation precisely without side effects.

As Sweden's leading university of technology, KTH has for decades laid the foundation for advanced technology development, through pioneering research in areas such as basic mathematics, machine learning, deep learning and software engineering.

Today, KTH holds a unique position in the ongoing AI revolution - a revolution that is not only reshaping entire industries, but is also beginning to be recognised with science's finest accolades, such as the Nobel Prize.

KTH Live-In Lab - where tomorrow's buildings are created

At KTH Live-In Lab, new technologies are tested in real living environments in order to more quickly translate research into finished products. Through collaboration between researchers and companies, innovations are developed for the smart buildings and cities of the future.

Jonasson Centre: From donation to innovation

Just over ten years ago, the Jonasson Centre for Medical Imaging was inaugurated at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Flemingsberg - thanks to a large private donation.
Today, the centre conducts advanced research in body imaging to develop new diagnostic and treatment methods in healthcare.
"The donation has been absolutely crucial for us to be able to build up cutting-edge research," says Matilda Larsson, professor and head of department.

Private funding enables life-saving research

KTH professor Mathias Uhlén is the man behind one of the largest research projects in Sweden aimed at preventing and treating the diseases of our time. A dream that is no longer too distant.
"Without funding from private foundations, I would not have been able to conduct this kind of bold research," he says.
