The Urban Systems and Dynamics group, led by Prof. Nik, advances the boundaries of Building Physics to explore the complex interactions between buildings, urban systems, and climate. Our research focuses on designing and optimizing strategies for buildings and urban systems (with a big focus on energy systems) that drive the sustainable urban transition and enhance the built environment's resilien
The Parallel Systems Division brings together three distinct research groups. The Mathematical Insights into Algorithms for Optimization (MIAO), Embedded Systems Design Laboratory and Lund University Graphics Group (LUGG).
A shift in new venture creation can be observed from purely profit-oriented models to alternatives attempting to also answer social and environmental needs. Because of their nature, these alternatives face issues regarding their integration in traditional financial and business spheres. Shared Value Creation is a framework that attempts to analyse these ventures and those challenges. Blockchain te
The study of entrepreneurship has become one of the most popular fields of research in the area of management over the last few decades. New and small businesses are seen collectively by politicians and decision-makers as the main contributors to the development of the economy and wealth creation in society. Sten K. Johnson Centre for Entrepreneurship conducts internationally renowned research wit
The Middle East in the Contemporary World (MECW) is a multi- and transdisciplinary strategic research area, hosted and supported by the Center for Middle Eastern Studies, comprising staff from five different faculties at Lund University.
BACKGROUND: Hospital readmissions are common among older multimorbid patients, and hospitalisation is associated with functional decline and reduced quality of life. Identifying patient characteristics and risk factors for repeated hospital visits following an emergency department (ED) encounter is important for guiding targeted interventions to prevent future revisits.AIM: To characterise multimo
The Division of IT is Lund University’s central IT function. It supports the university’s digitalisation by providing efficient, high-quality IT support. The Division of IT comprises four operational departments and one staff department. The Division of IT is responsible for the operation and development of both software applications and IT infrastructure. Prior to 1 January 2024, the organisation
Background: Previous studies have suggested that targeting the site of latest mechanical activation of the left ventricle (LV) results in improved cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) outcomes. It is not known whether these benefits are sustained over medium-term follow-up. Objective: To assess the clinical outcome of imaging-guided LV lead position. Methods: We sought to assess the medium-term
Background: For patients investigated with radiopharmaceuticals, it is important to be able to perform valid calculations of the absorbed dose in organs and tissues. An internal dosimetry computer program, IDAC-Dose2.1, has been updated to be based on the ICRP specific absorbed fractions and computational framework of internal dose assessment for 12 adult and paediatric reference individuals given
Forskargruppen bedriver forskning och utbildning på forskarnivå inom aktivt och hälsosamt åldrande. Vi medverkar i flera av Medicinska fakultetens utbildningsprogram på grundnivå och avancerad nivå, samt gör utbildningsinsatser vid tekniska (LTH) respektive samhällsvetenskapliga fakulteten. Här arbetar forskare och lärare från flera discipliner och professioner - arbetsterapi, fysioterapi, omvårdnThe group consists of about 25 senior and junior researchers, PhD students and technical and administrative staff. We represent many different disciplines and professions - gerontology, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, nursing, public health, sociology, psychology and epidemiology. Many of the employees are licensed health care professionals. The research group is the core of the interdiscipl
Our mission is to establish a major trans-faculty bio-imaging center at Lund University (Lund University Bioimaging Center), combining knowledge in the fields of medical physics, preclinical and clinical medicine, chemistry, technology and applied mathematics in order to develop imaging methods for the advanced study of human morphology, cellular metabolism and physiological function in health and
Forskningen är centrerad kring halvledarmaterial och halvledarfysik. Med epitaxi framställs halvledarmaterial med atomär kontroll, atomlager för atomlager. Processteknologi för nanometerstrukturering användes för att realisera 2-, 1- och 0-dimensionella kvantstrukturer. Med olika undersökningsmetoder (mikroskopiska, optiska och elektriska) studeras materialens fysikaliska egenskaper, speciellt relFor information on nanoscience research at Lund university: www.nano.lu.se
Our research is focused on epilepsy and the pathophysiological changes that may occur in the brain before and after epileptic seizures. About 0,7 % of the community has epilepsy and more than 30 % are resistant to any known medical therapy. We have a particular interest in the immune reaction in the brain and how it can be modulated in epilepsy. Recently, we were the first to describe an immune r
