The long and winding road to causality

Epidemiologists face two fundamental and interrelated problems when judging causality: knowledge is fallible, and studies are imperfect. In medicine, this will always leave a degree of uncertainty in scientific judgements. From an epistemological point of view, even randomized trials cannot be regarded as the ultimate proof to establish a causal relation. Given this inherent uncertainty it is no s

VR ställer krav på datahanteringsplan

Från och med 2019 behöver du som beviljas bidrag från Vetenskapsrådet ha en datahanteringsplan om din forskning genererar forskningsdata. Planen ska beskriva hur data som samlas in och/eller skapas kommer att hanteras under forskningens gång och hur den ska tas om hand efteråt. Läs mer här. Vill du veta mer om datahanteringsplaner, kan du anmäla dig till seminarium i Lund (LUX Aula) 7 maj.

First results from the Swedish National Pancreatic and Periampullary Cancer Registry.

Results from the Swedish National Registry are satisfactory and comparable to international standards. Trends over time show increasing resection rates and some improved results. Better collaboration and openness within pancreatic surgeons is an important side effect. New publication in the official Journal of the International Hepato Pancreato Biliary AssociationRead more here

Quality indicators and their regular use in clinical practice: results from a survey among users of two cardiovascular National Registries in Sweden

Most respondents used quality indicators from the two cardiovascular NQRs infrequently (<3 times/year). The results indicate that linking registration of quality indicators to using them for QI activities increases their routine use and makes them meaningful tools for professionals. New publication in International Journal for Quality in Health CareRead more here

Paradigm shift in the diagnosis of diabetes

A completely new classification of diabetes which also predicts the risk of serious complications and provides treatment suggestions. We are now seeing the first results of ANDIS – a study covering all newly diagnosed diabetics in southern Sweden — published in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology. The major difference from today’s classification is that type 2 diabetes actually consists of several

Effects of landscape change on the evolution of pollinators

An evolutionary perspective should be taken into account to ensure long-term crop pollination. This is the conclusion of an article published by BECC and CEC-affiliated researchers at Lund University. The researchers build on recent findings that evolutionary processes, in response to landscape change, are happening faster than previously thought. The article presents a model that can help us unde

Improving food safety risk assessment in the EU

Ullrika Sahlin, a CEC researcher specialising in Computational Science for Health and Environment (COSHE) research, recently completed a mission for the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). EFSA's scientific experts learned how to express uncertainty in a clear way. EFSA was set up in 2002 in the wake of crises of confidence in food safety. Its mandate is to carry out scientific assessments of r

Computational science hub to sharpen research in environment and health

A computational science hub, COSHE, has been established at Lund University. The aim is to become a creative hub for computational science with a focus on interdisciplinary research in the fields of health, climate and the environment. COSHE works with machine learning, statistical learning methods, physical system modeling and quantum computing. The research groups behind COSHE already have parti

Five ways to create a toxin-free garden

Toxins and chemicals are a major threat to our environment. The "third crisis" - the chemical crisis - is often forgotten when we talk about the climate and endangered species. Ahead of Biodiversity Day on 22 May, Maria Hansson, a researcher at Lund University, offers tips on how to create a non-toxic environment in your own garden, benefiting all its inhabitants, big and small. Synthetically prod

Voices from the Swedish Climate Symposium

After a year of intensive work by many involved, the Swedish Climate Symposium with its close to 400 participants, has come to an end. Now an evaluation of the conference awaits, but the feeling is that most people experienced it as a successful event. To take the pulse during the symposium itself, we did a couple of short interviews with some of those who were there. Read the article which is pub

Weather attribution – climate scientist Wilhelm May helps us get to grips with the concept

Have you noticed that when scientists are asked whether or not a particular extreme weather event is due to climate change, they usually respond with something like "It fits the pattern, but we can't say for sure that this particular event is worse because of climate change"? Weather attribution is a new phenomenon that is changing this. Climate scientist Wilhelm May at Lund University helps us ge
