The NanoLund Annual Meeting 2025 took place on October 8th at the Loop. Not only underlined by the Nobel Prize in Physics announced the day before, this year’s theme, “Quantum science and technology – from fundamental science to applications”, is also connected to the 2025 International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ), which marks a century since the foundational discoveries that gave

Christopher Douse, a new group leader at the Faculty of Medicine at Lund University, has been awarded the Ben Barres Early Career Acceleration Award by The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. This award includes a $1.2 million grant to support his lab’s exploration of the repetitive portion of the human genome, so-called ‘genomic dark matter’, and its role in human brain development and degeneration.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. With the increasing threat of antibiotic resistance, there is a growing need for new treatment strategies against life threatening bacterial infections. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden and the University of Copenhagen may have identified such an alternative treatment for bacterial meningitis, a serious infect

Transistors that can change properties are important elements in the development of tomorrow’s semiconductors. With standard transistors approaching the limit for how small they can be, having more functions on the same number of units becomes increasingly important in enabling the development of small, energy-efficient circuits for improved memory and more powerful computers. Researchers at Lund

Kristyan Nicholson When entering Kristyan Nicholson´s MFA exhibition TOMORROW HAS NEVER BEEN AS CLOSE AS IT IS RIGHT NOW, I was struck by how quiet the works were. There was an austere yet playful atmosphere, where I felt invited to investigate the potentiality myself, as Nicholson seemed to offer a series of wonderments to the viewer, through both sculpture and video using materials such as the s

En av de största utmaningarna globalt är att förse världens befolkning med mat på ett hållbart sätt. Ekologisk odling är en möjlighet, men baksidan är att den ger sämre skördar än konventionell odling. Studier ledda från Lunds universitet visar nu att skördeskillnaden mellan ekologisk och konventionell odling är mindre än man tidigare trott, men ändå klart mindre än för konventionell odling. Genom

Under förra veckan hölls det första projektmötet i ett nytt projekt om delad mobilitet i nybyggnationer där Lunds universitet, Campus Helsingborg och Helsingborgs stad stod som värdar. Målet är att skapa förutsättningar för nya bostadsområden med bevarande av grönytor som skapar ekosystemtjänster och sociala mötesplatser som gynnar alla.

For decades, large stretches of human DNA were dismissed as ‘junk’ and considered to serve no real purpose. In a new study in Cell Genomics, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show that the repetitive part of the human genome plays an active role during early brain development and may also be relevant for understanding brain diseases. DNA carries the complete set of instructions an organism

To share experiences and improve teaching, LUCA organises the annual LU Case Day conference, where teachers gather to exchange ideas and find inspiration. The Lund University Case Academy (LUCA) was founded in 2012 by faculty members at Lund University as a cross-faculty network to promote case-based and student-centered learning. This year’s event was held in April at the Lund University School o

Lewy body disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer's disease. A research group from Lund University has now shown that the disease can be detected before symptoms appear, using a spinal fluid test. The studies are published in Nature Medicine, where the researchers also demonstrate that reduced sense of smell is strongly linked to Lewy body disease even before ot

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. New research from Lund University, Sweden, has shown for the first time that chimpanzees catch yawns from humans, and that the susceptibility to contagious yawning develops gradually with age – just like it does in humans. While juvenile chimpanzees (5-8 years of age) catch human yawns, infant chimpanzees seem immune
