Barry Ness and Darin Wahl hope that their insights can both enhance other ongoing research in the field, as well as deepen comprehensions of transdisciplinary processes. 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 fro

Climate risks are cross-boundary, cross-scale, and multi-dimensional, and how we adapt to these risks requires an understanding of who and what is vulnerable, as well as who has the capability to adapt, notes researcher Murray Scown. A new research project led by LUCSUS is exploring how power and politics intersects with climate risk and adaptation at different scales. The aim is to contribute to

The millimeter-sized chip on which the transistors are located. (Photo: Anton Persson) Transistors that can change properties are important elements in the development of tomorrow’s semiconductors. With standard transistors approaching the limit for how small they can be, having more functions on the same number of units becomes increasingly important in enabling the development of small, energy-e
