Varför vinner vissa ledarskaps- och organisationsbegrepp mark och etableras som sanning? Hur får de legitimitet, trots bristande evidens för deras effekt? Ett nytt forskningsprojekt vid Lunds universitet ska undersöka hur och varför viss managementkunskap blir populär, etableras och används i praktiken, trots att den vid upprepade tillfällen ifrågasätts och kritiseras för brist på substans och rel

Malin Espersson har i ett pågående forskningsprojekt undersökt hur kommuner arbetar med jämställdhetsintegrering. Resultaten visar på bristande engagemang från ledning och politiker, med en risk att arbetet blir symboliskt snarare än att bidra till förändring. Flexit-projektet, som finansierats av Riksbankens jubileumsfond, startade den 1 mars 2023 och är ett samarbete mellan forskaren och en värd

A group of NanoLund researchers recently reported on the first nanowire photodetector sensitive to long-wavelength infrared radiation. The infrared response from 3 to 20 μm is enabled by intersubband transitions in InAsP quantum discs synthesized axially within InP nanowires. The intriguing optical characteristics, including unexpected sensitivity to normal incident radiation, are explained by exc

NanoLund Affiliated Member Anne L’Huillier has been involved in a study where researchers have clocked how long it takes for an electron to be emitted from an atom. The result is 0.000 000 000 000 000 02 seconds, or 20 billionths of a billionth of a second. The researchers’ stopwatch consists of extremely short laser pulses. Hopefully, the results will help to provide new insights into some of the
