Researchers reject the EU reform plans for CAP – “not viable for the future”

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. When it comes to meeting sustainability goals, the current reform proposal of the EU Commission on the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) falls well short at the mark, accordning to a group of international researchers writing in the journal Science. The proposed amendments to the CAP will not improve the environmental

MOOCs more popular during the pandemic

IIIEE is taking the lead on open, month-long online courses, known as MOOCs. The investment in MOOCs has been quite a success. In recent years, every sixth student has stated that the online courses influenced them to apply for one of the IIIEE’s traditional courses or programmes. That MOOCs attract students to study programmes is only one of several positive aspects. The opportunity to collaborat

Migratory songbirds climb to extreme altitudes during daytime

Great reed warblers normally migrate by night during its month-long migration from northern Europe to Sub-Saharan Africa. However, researchers have now discovered that during the few occasions when it continues to fly during daytime, it flies at extremely high altitudes (up to 6300 meters). One possible explanation for this unexpected and consistent behaviour could be that the birds want to avoid

Play for change – more biodiversity and less food waste on the gaming table

Can games serve as a method for spreading knowledge and inspiring action? If you ask Karl Sterner Isaksson and Jagdeep Singh, the answer is an obvious yes! They are both currently working on games about biodiversity and food waste, respectively, and they see games as a way to transform complex environmental challenges into something understandable, engaging – and fun!

Spring meeting 2019 – BECC MERGE jointly on the Sustainable Development Goals

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. During 7-8 of May, 80 researchers within BECC and MERGE met to learn about the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, and how their research can be linked, and contribute, to the implementation of the goals. We are just as far from reaching the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) as Burkina Faso. We just have different

Stressed doctoral students want better support from their supervisors

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Broke and depressed – that’s how doctoral students risk ending up if they don’t complete their studies in time. The Doctoral Student Ombudsman, Aleksandra Popvic, says supervisors and the University must take more responsibility for the structure of the thesis work, a view supported by a survey conducted by the Swedis

Accessibility in the home is the key for a person with a spinal cord injury

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Being able to take care of one’s hygiene, cook food and cope independently in the home are examples of feeling in control of one’s life. But how easy is it for an elderly person with a spinal cord injury to feel actively in control of their life in the home? Lizette Norin, occupational therapist and researcher, has wr

Cutting edge transistors for semiconductors of the future

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-efficient circuits for improved memory and more powerful computers. Researchers at Lund
