A lab where you can “craft” new materials on the atomic level, bringing together cross-disciplinary scientists to produce nanomaterials and semiconductor components. A neighborhood with major research infrastructures, complementary to each other. And most important: an open environment where academia, industry, and society can meet and collaborate, finding solutions for a sustainable world. Intrig

How do birds avoid collision when flying in dense foliage and other cramped environments with many obstacles? And what does flying in such complex environments entail for the birds? These were the questions Per Henningsson of Lund University in Sweden pondered before engaging the help of the family’s own pet budgie to get some answers. His study has now been published in Royal Society Open Science

In an article published in Nature Communications, researchers Fan Wu, Tu C. Nguyen-Phan, Richard Cogdell, and Tönu Pullerits suggest that optical microcavities can be a strategic tool for modifying excitation energy transfer between molecular complexes. “We show that optical microcavities can enhance energy transfer between photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes, even in the weak coupling regim

As long as we need to examination remotley, we will need to do it in partly new ways. There are no methods for "translating" an examination on campus into the same examination done at home, and different forms of examination handle the adjustments needed differently.

Can a new neighbourhood be a spearhead for sustainability if it has a huge shopping mall at its heart? And to what extent can urban planning influence the way people live in an area? In her thesis, Agenda 2030 doctoral student Alva Zalar has examined Hyllie in southern Malmö from a norm-critical perspective that interweaves architecture and queer theory. In the early 2000s, the city of Malmö decid

Digitaliseringen liknas ibland vid en ny industriell revolution eftersom en ny teknik introduceras, gamla arbeten försvinner och nya tillkommer, men vad innebär egentligen digitaliseringen av arbetslivet? Vilka arbeten kommer att försvinna och vilka nya kompetenser kommer att efterfrågas? Vilka grupper vinner och fö

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Forskare har länge funderat på hur våra celler gör när de orienterar sig i kroppen. Två nya studier som lundaforskaren Pontus Nordenfelt medverkat i, visar nu att cellerna använder sig av kraft från sin insida för att styra åt ett visst håll. En kunskap som kan få stor betydelse vid utveckling av nya läkemedel. Pont

I strokemodeller på möss, har forskare lyckats återställa förlorad hjärnfunktion med hjälp av små molekyler som i framtiden kan utvecklas till strokeläkemedel. ­– Efter stroke förändras kommunikationen mellan nervceller i stora delar av hjärnan och vi visar att den delvis återställs med behandlingen, säger Tadeusz Wieloch, seniorprofessor i neurobiologi vid Lunds universitet. –  Samtidigt återfår
