What is the sea in marine spatial planning and how does it affect our future? In a one-day conference the results and work of two finished Formas projects was presented with the theme ”Blue economy, marine markets and marine spatial planning”. On the schedule for the day was lectures on marine spatial planning, beaches and the possibilities of seaweed with speakers from Lund University, Malmö Univ

Nature Medicine asked leading researchers which clinical trials in the coming year that are likely to have an outsized impact on medicine. One of the 11 listed trials were the trial "Stem cells for Parkinson’s disease" done at Region Skåne in Lund. Both, WCMM Fellow Agnete Kirkeby and WCMM researcher Gesine Paul Visse, are part of the responsible team. The STEM-PD trial will transplant dopaminergi

Cake and a packed Rydberg Hall set the tone when Fysicum celebrated its 75th anniversary. The Department of Physics invited guests to a party, and the audience was treated to a dizzying journey through history, presented by Professor Erik Swietlicki. When Lund University was founded in 1666, there was no faculty of natural sciences. Instead, physics was part of the faculty of philosophy, and for a

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Climate change has become one of the defining social and environmental challenges of our time. In light of the public and political attention that the issue has gained, the need for informed and critical perspectives on this important topic is more urgent than ever. At LUCSUS, we believe that climate change knowledge

On-chip optical communication between tiny light-based components can make neuromorphic (brain-inspired) computing much smaller and more energy-efficient. In this work, researchers demonstrate that individual nanowire devices on a silicon chip can transmit and receive light signals directly to each other. These miniature circuits communicate reliably, using significantly less power than convention

“X-ray and neutron-based characterization of advanced semiconductors (Semiconductors)” is the name of one of the new Themes at LINXS, the advanced studies institute whose mission is to promote science and education focusing on the use of neutrons and X-rays. LINXS recently announced that, subject to formal acceptance by the applicants, four new Themes will start at LINXS as of 1st January 2026. Th

The strategic research areas (SRAS) host half-day workshops that discuss sustainability across research environments at Lund University. After nine engaging workshops, three more workshops are planned on topics of equality in research environments, research impact of multidisciplinary collaborations, and writing policy briefs. “Not everyone sees their research as relevant to sustainability,” says

After a trip from Portugal, the new exposure chambers have arrived in Lund. LTH’s aerosol and climate scientists welcome the lab delivery with great expectations and are getting ready for a four-week construction project. Several years of preparation are now bearing fruit. The aerosol and climate labs at LTH have merged into one laboratory, and in the process the infrastructure is being improved w

Even though awareness of climate change is growing, it is not primarily environmental concern that drives consumers to choose plant-based foods — it’s the price tag. A new literature review from AgriFood Economics Centre and the Lund University School of Economics and Management (LUSEM) shows that price plays a decisive role when consumers opt for plant-based rather than animal-based products.

As the holiday season approaches, we would like to extend our warmest wishes to you all.    After last year’s restrictive situation we are so happy to have been able to meet in person during 2022. Even so there are lessons to be learned and we are therefore staying partly with digital formats that work well. Here are some highlights from the past year: AI related Degree Project fairs both in Helsi

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
