[67] Geim was furthermore made a Knight Bachelor in the 2012 New Year Honours for services to science. Geim shared the 2000 Ig Nobel Prize in physics with Michael Berry for the frog experiment. "Renaissance scientist with fund of ideas". Geim was involved in the development of a biomimetic adhesive which became known as gecko tape—so called because of the adhesiveness of gecko feet—research of which is still in the early stages.It is hoped that the development will eventually allow humans to scale ceilings, like Spider-Man.
