Covid-19 and the subsequent closure of universities around the world have meant that we all quickly had to learn how to teach remotely. Educators all over the world have gathered experiences and evaluated them, and talk about the present as a "new normal" where both teachers and students expect universities to take advantage of knowledge and skills acquired during the pandemic.

What kind of an image of yourself do you present on social media? And why? Carys Egan-Wyer, researcher in Consumer Culture, believes that in some ways leisure time has become a type of work. Showing off the perfect meals, gardens and jogging sessions also says something about us and our time. You probably know what it's like. Despite the burnt pots and sauce all over the stove: a photo of a beauti

Recent developments in the retail sector—increased competition, a focus on sustainability, and the pervasive digitization—have prompted discussions on its long-term competitiveness and the potential for more systematic innovation alongside daily operational activities. However, understanding how the retail industry perceives and addresses innovation remains a key question. In contrast to industria

Just a month after the UN climate summit in Egypt, the leaders of the world meet again, at COP15 in Montreal, to address another acute crisis facing humanity – the loss of biodiversity. Torsten Krause is a senior lecturer in Sustainability Studies at Lund University Centre for Sustainability Studies. His research focuses on, among other things, Amazon deforestation and policy issues relating to bi

This year, MultiPark has the pleasure of welcoming two new research groups. The Mackenzie Lab aims to decode the neurobiological underpinnings of emotion through experimental studies in animal models. Jacob Vogel’s team uses AI to analyze clinical data for improved understanding as well as patient-tailored diagnosis and care of neurodegenerative disease patients. Say hello to Åsa Mackenzie and Jac

The Science Village Establishment (Phase 2) project team wishes everyone a great summer with lots of well-deserved rest! Before work starts again in August, we want to share what we have been working on during the spring. It’s been a time filled with exciting and challenging activities that we’ve previously highlighted on the blog. Here is a brief summary of the spring focus areas:Evaluation of th

In a study led by Lund University, researchers can show for the first time that traumatic brain injuries activate dormant endogenous retroviruses that have been inserted into human DNA over the course of millions of years. The activation of these viruses may be the driving force behind the inflammation that worsens the brain injury. The study is published in Cell Reports. In the event of head trau

A few sharp minds working together for almost an entire summer. The task: to tackle the problem that a couple of days of work generates so much data, that it would take months to analyse. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction is a technique that allows us to obtain precise and detailed structural information of materials and their properties, and to fundamentally understand physical processes at the atomi

Although Lund University’s 350th anniversary celebrations are drawing to a close, some projects will live on, along with the working method known as the jubilee model. Carina Jensen, soon to step down from her role as jubilee coordinator, talks about Sunday’s big kick-off for the future, which is open to all. “It will start with an open house event in the main University building, celebrating the

What jobs will we do in the future? And who will work? Research shows that half of today’s jobs will not be necessary in 20 years’ time. Questions about unemployment and the future job market have been discussed at several different university events in recent months, most recently at Debatt i Lund. In early June, politicians, entrepreneurs and researchers gathered for the Innovation for Jobs conf

The Inter Arts Centre (IAC) in Malmö provides a forum enabling all parts of the Faculty of Fine and Performing Arts to conduct research together and create joint projects. Its objective is to find new approaches and to achieve collective results which are greater than the sum of their parts. An example of the Centre’s work is one of the largest symposia ever to be held in Scandinavia within the fi

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are the latest topics within health and care services. With its capacity to process large volumes of data, self-learning software can detect complex correlations between patients, find disease markers at an early stage and make more correct diagnoses. However, this new technology also implies a risk. An interdisciplinary research project involving
