From 1 January 2026, new guidelines for entertainment and gifts at the University will apply. The guidelines have been updated to make them clearer, more consistent and better suited to today’s needs. Why are the rules changing?The basic rules remain unchanged and continue to be based on tax and accounting regulations. However, the amount limits have been adjusted, and the guidelines and associate

Reconfigurable transistors are key elements in the development of future semiconductors. As conventional transistors approach the limit of how small they can become, more functions in the same number of units will become increasingly important in developing small and energy-efficient circuits for better memories and more powerful computers. In two articles published in Science Advances and Nature

If we can understand how and why light and matter behave as they do, we are one step closer to solving some of the most fundamental problems in physics. Finding the answers to these questions drives Ville Maisi, Associate Professor of Solid States Physics at NanoLund. As long as he can remember he has been interested in electric circuits and physics. With the support of a new ERC Consolidator Gran

Sustainability science is about making impact for societal transformations. Building transdisciplinary relationships for the co-creation of knowledge with organisations outside academia is crucial to enact change. New research from LUCSUS identifies key insights for how to create and maintain more successful collaborations. The work is based on five-years of working with the Swedish craft beer sec

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Avhandling: Vi vet nu att utvecklingen av typ 1 diabetes startar långt innan några symtom visar sig. I flertalet fall kan tecken i blodet ses åtskilliga år tidigare, inte sällan så tidigt som innan 1 års ålder. Men det finns i nuläget inte något känt sätt att förhindra eller stoppa processen, skriver Markus Lundgren
