Everyone must be included in the crisis planning

Jonas Borell. What happens if there is a power cut and the heating stops working for a long period of time? Besides the obvious consequences – that technology doesn’t work and it gets cold – how do we, as a society, prepare for such a crisis? Do we know who is supposed to do what when it happens? And who gets to decide on the crisis plans? There are many different unexpected and sudden events that

AI forces teachers to change the way courses are examined

Academic misconduct has increased with about 200% during the past covid years. As a precaution Lund University has started a project to prevent deception and misleading in examination, whether it’s unauthorized cooperation, plagiarism, or non-allowed aids.

Carbon offshoring and manufacturing cleanup

Albert Duodu investigates how trade shocks impact the economic activities of a country. Photo: iStock Trade shocks can have various impacts on the economic activities of a country, yet it remains uncertain whether such shocks influence the environmental behaviors of firms. Albert Duodu shows, in a recent investigation, that trade shocks originating from countries with less stringent environmental

Intrinsic Aging or Lab-Induced Stress? Understanding Genetic Changes in Blood Stem Cells

Lund University researchers find that individual blood stem cells (depicted as snowflakes in this image) express stress-related transcripts when subjected to experimental procedures involving cell incubation at elevated temperatures.

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

Sweden is also increasingly affected by unusually intense storms. Here, a flooded playground in the city of Landskrona after the storm "Hans" in August 2023. 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

When studies depend on interpretation

Sign interpretation demands a lot of concentration. There are usually two interpreters in place during a lecture to relieve each other every 15 minute or so.

MFA Student Interview Series, part VIII: Irene Margrethe Kaltenborn and Karolina Bergman Engman

Irene Margrethe Kaltenborn In KHM1 gallery IreneMargrethe Kaltenborn´s MFA exhibition Choreographies towards loss set the stage for the audience to enter artworks which echoed loss and a void, full of wonderment and poetics. The gallery was dimly lit and kept minimal, leaving room for the viewer to enter the web of interconnectedness between animals, humans and nature.       What has the process b

Projekt kring fusk ska hjälpa lärare examinera rätt

ChatGPT är en av de AI-tjänster som används vid fusk. Studiefusket ökade med uppåt 200% under covid-åren. I spår av detta har Lunds universitet startat ett projekt för att förebygga vilseledande vid examination (eller fusk som vilseledande kallas till vardags), oavsett om det är otillåtet samarbete, plagiering eller otillåtna hjälpmedel.
