EAT-Lancet-kosten är en modell för hur det globala livsmedelssystemet ska förhålla sig till planetens begränsningar samtidigt som folksjukdomar som typ 2-diabetes kan förebyggas. Men hur ska vi veta om dieten verkligen fungerar? Genom att studera sju kostindex har ett internationellt forskarlag funnit att två av dem är särskilt bra på att utvärdera följsamhet till kosten. Välfungerande kostindex b

Solel passar många länder och skulle kunna vara vanligare om energibolag anpassade sina affärsmodeller efter marknadens förutsättningar. – Villkoren för att erbjuda solceller skiljer sig mycket åt mellan olika länder, och det missar många energibolag. Resultatet blir att det tar längre tid att ta fram ett erbjudande som är attraktivt för kunderna och en affärsmodell som fungerar, säger Kajsa Ahlgr

We spend 90 per cent of our time indoors. We can both exercise and shop without taking a step outdoors and the indoor trend is on the increase, despite the fact that we have little understanding of the air we are breathing. “The health effects may not be detected for a number of years”, says LTH researcher Aneta Wierzbicka, who is coordinating an interdisciplinary theme at the Pufendorf Institute.

“It was previously believed that you are stuck with the genes you were born with, regardless if they are favourable or unfavourable. But now it seems that you can affect how your inherited genes manifest themselves”, says diabetes researcher Charlotte Ling. Charlotte Ling. Because all the cells in the body have the same genetic makeup, epigenetics – when different genes are active or passive – is

Poverty reduction globally is one of the UN’s primary goals. But how can wealth and economic development be measured in a smart way? Artificial intelligence, AI, and satellite photos are able to give more effective and precise measurements, but will remote sensing technology ever be able to replace time-consuming interview surveys? In rich countries, GDP is the most common measure of a country’s w
