Vart fjärde år utvärderas Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies för att följa upp hur institutet uppfyller sina övergripande målsättningar och följer sina grundläggande principer. I år har en extern panel utvärderat verksamheten under åren 2018–2021 (inklusive pandemiåren, alltså), modellen som Pufendorfinstitutet vilar på och vad som gör institutet unik. Den externa utvärderingspanelen bestod

What connection is there between food and drink with added sugar and coronary artery disease? Until recently, the question had been inadequately answered by research, but an extensive study from Lund University in Sweden has now contributed important clues. The study in question focuses on sucrose. Sucrose occurs naturally in fruit and vegetables, but the majority of our consumption is through add

3D-mammography reduces the number of breast cancer cases diagnosed in the period between routine screenings, when compared with traditional mammography, according to a large study from Lund University in Sweden. The results are published in the journal Radiology. “Our results indicate that 3D-mammography, or digital breast tomosynthesis, possibly detects cancers that would otherwise have been diag

In Parkinson’s disease (PD), dopamine-producing nerve cells that control our movements waste away. Current treatments for PD therefore aim at restoring dopamine contents in the brain. In a new study from Lund University, researchers are attacking the problem from a different angle, through early activation of a protein that improves the brain’s capacity to cope with a host of harmful processes.

Lina Ejlertsson, a doctoral student in Public Health at Lund University, believes that there is a classic approach to working with and measuring health in workplaces through sick leave rates, productivity and efficiency. – Most often, rehabilitative measures or preventative work are only undertaken after employees become ill. So what happens if you instead integrate various recovery activities int

Numerous studies have suggested that eating a healthy diet may reduce a person’s risk of dementia. A new study from one of MultiPark's research groups, published in Neurology, sheds new light on the impact of having a Mediterranean diet. The Mediterranean diet includes a high intake of vegetables, legumes, fruits, fish and healthy fats such as olive oil, and a low intake of dairy products, meats a

I Sverige tror vi ofta att vi är världsledande när det gäller miljöfrågor. Det finns en slags självgodhet som gör att vi inte ser att vi faktiskt kan lära av andra länder. Det menar Anna Kaijser som har lagt fram en avhandling vid Lunds universitet om miljödebatten i Bolivia, ett land som utmärkt sig för att inta en radikal position i miljöförhandlingar.

For the first time, researchers have proposed the hypothesis that animals that live in climate zones at a safe distance from both the poles as well as the tropics have the most to gain from acclimating to changes in climate. The findings contradict previous research in the field. Acclimation means the ability of both animals and plants to adjust their physiology when it gets hotter or colder. In t

How can images show that the world we live in is being subjected to ongoing climate change? This is the research question being considered by Adam Brenthel, a doctoral student in art history. He has studied researchers’ attempts to translate their findings into images to better communicate them to the general public. He thinks polar bears, the animal most often used to symbolise climate change, ar

The proportion of unionised blue-collar and white-collar workers fell in 2022 after an increase in the pandemic years of 2020 and 2021. Despite this, Sweden has the world's second highest level of unionisation.
