How do you challenge the struggles with your PhD? How do you explain nanoscience to pupils in elementary school? And how do you maintain the balance between science and social activities? These are topics discussed in a podcast where Areej Al-Sabban from Lund University Global Engagement talks to Adam Burke, Patrik Nilsson, and Pratik Bhagwat. In a recent podcast made by Areej Al-Sabban from Lund

Can innovation strengthen research? Former NanoLund director Heiner Linke, professor of nanophysics and member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, achieved this by combining research and innovation. His own attitude towards utilisation and innovation has evolved from a sense of duty to passion: “Now I think it’s genuinely exciting.” Do you see increasing integration of innovation within rese

By studying how materials build themselves and by mimicking those processes, it is possible to create materials with new structures and properties. This is what Wallenberg Scholar Kimberly Dick Thelander, professor of materials science at Lund University, is doing. At the nano scale, which is measured in billionths of a meter, phenomena occur that do not otherwise exist. Thelander and her colleagu

Solar energy stored in the form of fuel is something scientists hope could partially replace fossil fuels in the future. Researchers may have solved a long-standing problem that has hindered the development of sustainable solar fuels. If solar energy can be used more efficiently using iron-based systems, this could pave the way for cheaper solar fuels. “We can now see previously hidden mechanisms

Work on Lund University’s establishment in Science Village has continued this year, but with a new focus. At the end of 2024, the boards of LTH and the Faculty of Science decided not to proceed with scenario 5 – a co-location of the Department of Physics and the Department of Chemistry in the area – due to cost considerations and the challenges of running education across two sites. The project gr

En långtidsstudie från Lunds universitet visar att problem med psykisk ohälsa har ökat kraftigt bland högstadieungdomar. På 17 år har problemen blivit tre gånger vanligare bland flickor. Vid den första undersökningen (genomförd 2007–2008) låg ungefär 10 procent av flickorna över gränsen för vad som räknas som kliniskt relevanta psykiska problem. Vid nästa undersökningsperiod (2024–2025), var motsv
