Science Village will now be the focal point for semiconductor research in Lund after Lars-Erik Wernersson's research group moved to The Loop. The move is expected to provide new opportunities for collaboration, as well as increased cooperation with MAX IV, ESS and the upcoming Nanolab Science Village. The move is described by Lars-Erik Wernersson as “a strategic step forward”. Lars-Erik Wernersson

The Boards of the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) and the Faculty of Science have decided to aim for a more modest establishment in Science Village, i.e. the area between Max IV and ESS. The decision is justified, among other things, by the fact that the Departments of Physics and Chemistry would incur high rental costs if both research and education were to move. So says Annika Mårtensson, assistant

A discussion on semiconductors was on the agenda in Almedalen. The dialogue, hosted by LTH at Lund University, addressed how Sweden can contribute to the efforts being made in Europe. One of the conclusions of the discussion was "the crisper the proposal – the more policy influence". Semiconductors are a strategically important component of today's and tomorrow's society. The technology is needed
