I’ve been to a fair few geography conferences but, funny enough, have never really come across very many maps. Or, rather, have given them very little thought. This year, wherever I turned there they were. And they were truly, deep

Dark excitons are material excitations not visible under light illumination. Some acquire intrinsic momentum and become inherently mobile, which can be exploited in charge transport applications. Studying the properties of such excitons via spectroscopy is extremely challenging due to their dark nature. “Although the intrinsic mobility of dark excitons may be suitable for charge transport in futur

Artificial intelligence has gone from horror visions on film to a tool in everyone’s pocket. From spelling advice to shopping tips – and now to assigning work and measuring performance. What’s next? We met with organisational researcher Sverre Spoelstra to talk about algorithmic leadership and management. You may not have your boss in an app, yet. But the idea is not as futuristic as it may sound.

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. För drygt hundrafemtio år sedan blev det lika viktigt att forska som att undervisa. Universitetsläraren blev ”vetenskapsman” och den nya yrkesrollen hjälpte akademikern att klättra på samhällsstegen. Hur ser det ut i dag? Forskning är fortfarande högsta prioritet och anslagen har aldrig varit så stora som nu. Men ha
