NEWS Lars Nyberg, Professor of Neuroscience, has been named the eighth leading researcher in neuroscience in Sweden by Research.com. In the global ranking, he is ranked 333rd in the world – a recognition that confirms his long-standing and successful research career.
Lars Nyberg’s research focuses on the brain and functional brain imaging, with a particular interest in the link between brain functions and various memory processes. As early as the 1980s, he helped launch the Betula research project – ageing, memory and dementia – in which participants were followed for over 30 years to study how memory changes over time.
In 2025, Lars Nyberg was awarded the Bengt Winblad Prize for his research in geriatrics, with a primary focus on how the brain and memory change with ageing. Now, less than a year later, his work is receiving further recognition through Research.com’s international ranking – with a place amongst the top ten neuroscientists in Sweden.
