Radu Penciulescu, tidigare professor på Teaterhögskolan, har avlidit vid en ålder av 88 år. Radu Penciulescu, född 1930 i Bukarest, har som tidigare meddelats avlidit.

Han var professor på Teaterhögskolan i Malmö under 1980- och 90-talen, och hade des

She got a new liver – and a new life

LUM managed to sneak in an interview with Carita Håkansson before she packs her bags for a hiking trip in Greece. For the first time in many years she has the chance once more to do what she loves the most – to experience nature and landscapes on foot. Thanks to a transplant, she is living a new life. Carita Håkansson fell ill around just 40 years of age. When her stomach started growing doctors d

He pumps petrol from trees

The expression “Sweden’s green gold” has a new meaning. Forests are now not only to provide timber and paper – but also save the climate. Chemical engineering researcher Christian Hulteberg has managed to transform a residual product from pulp manufacturing into a liquid that is chemically identical to petrol. The plan is to have Swedish forest fuel available at service stations by 2021. “This is

Overstretched intensive care leads to fewer donations

Ninety thousand people die in Sweden every year. Despite 80 percent of Sweden’s population stating they would like to donate their organs after death, fewer than 200 people actually become organ donors each year. Why? This is due to, among other reasons, our limited legislation and organs not being made available because of a shortage of intensive care beds. Simply dying is not enough to become an

Superbosses make others become good leaders

“Superbosses” are exceptional at attracting talented people and getting them to perform at their best – while also developing them to become new, good leaders. Are superbosses to be found at the University? “I’m convinced that we would also find superbosses at Lund University if we looked”, says Christine Blomquist, who adds that there are many good leaders here.

Hard on the heels of a Nobel laureate

Long ago, Carl Borrebaeck worked side by side with one of this year’s Nobel Prize winners for chemistry, Sir Gregory Winter, on the publication of an innovative technology within what was then a hot new research field: antibody engineering. In 1989, within the same couple of weeks, both researchers published findings on the technology which has now resulted in a Nobel Prize for chemistry. Since th

Stressed doctoral students want better support from their supervisors

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 Swedish Union of Civil Servants (ST). More than 45 percent of responses from doctoral s

Where would academia be without migrants?

Migration is a talking point everywhere – in politics, in the media, and not least in academia. It is often presented as problematic and demanding on resources, seldom as something which contributes to economic, cultural, and indeed intellectual development. But without migrants where would academia be exactly? That’s the question being asked by Mine Islar who has been a driving force behind the P

Europe needs to improve researcher mobility!

“Researchers and students are mobile in a completely different way from previously, but the regulations haven’t kept up.

Battle for democracy decided in schools

The battle for real democracy in the Middle East will largely be decided in schools. The role of education in a democracy was also the theme of a workshop in Alexandria, where Swedish researchers met their Egyptian counterparts. The USI network organised the event on a hot topic in a country that needs to fight for democracy if it is to take root.   “Democracy in Egypt isn’t going to work unless p
