About me
Mariana Dalarsson (MSc 2010, PhD 2016, Docent 2019) is a researcher and teacher in Electromagnetic Theory at the Division of Electromagnetic Engineering and Fusion Science (EMF) at the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (EECS). She received the Honorary Grant ("Honnörsstipendiet") given to the best graduate of the year of her programme, in 2011. She is the (shared) second youngest woman ever to get a PhD degree from KTH, and a recipient of the L’Oréal-Unesco For Women in Science Sweden Prize 2020.
Mariana's research interests include electromagnetic scattering and absorption, inverse problems, electromagnetics of stratified media, double-negative metamaterials, electromagnetics in medicine, antenna theory, mathematical physics, etc. She is the author of about 97 peer-reviewed publications, including 51 journal papers. Currently, she is mainly pursuing research within her own project grants from the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet):
- "Waveguide theory for artificial materials and plasmonics" (2019).
- "Gold nanoparticles for high-frequency deep brain stimulation" (2023).
Last but not least, Mariana is a teacher in the following courses on BSc, MSc and PhD level:
- EI1222 Electromagnetic theory, continuation course, course responsible and examiner (given to CELTE students)
- EI2405 Classical Electrodynamics, course responsible and examiner (given to TEFRM students)
- FEI3304 Integral Equation Methods in Electromagnetics, course responsible and examiner (given to PhD students in Electrical Engineering)
- Co-teacher in EI2403 Electromagnetic Modelling, EI2440 Electrotechnical Design and EI2510 Project in Electromagnetic Engineering.
- Regular supervisor and examiner of several BSc/MSc theses per year
In 2015, she was awarded the "Teaching Assistant of the Year" pedagogical prize from the Engineering Physics students.
