Zahid Shahab Ahmed's two-year research project, funded by United States Institute of Peace, involving nine case studies of peace education interventions from Khyber to Karachi in Pakistan has been published by the Institute. With an eye to the theory that radicalization is a function of social and political marginalization more than of economic poverty, this report examines a cross-section of peac

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

Sällskapsspelet är årets julklapp. I alla fall om Handelns Utredningsinstitut, HUI, får rätt i sin spaning, lanserad i dag 16 november. Men vad säger detta om vår samtid? Vi frågade Patrik Stoopendahl, forskare inom marknadsföring och digitala kundresor. – Utnämningen av sällskapsspelet som årets julklapp är meningsfull på flera sätt. Konsumentens tendens att söka inre trygghet i oroliga tider är

The frustration with not being able to contribute to the difficult situation surrounding the covid-19 pandemic led researchers at LUPOP to launch a matchmaking initiative. Their idea is to help researchers with clinical background, now needed in healthcare, by supporting their research and application work. As COVID-19 spreads throughout the world, public interest in epidemiology has increased sig

Last week the new batch of LUMES students had their first field day for the course Earth Systems Science in Lund’s botanical garden. We took the opportunity to talk to three of them about the course and their impressions of the LUMES programme, so far. Earth Systems Science is one of the first courses of the LUMES programme. The course focuses on the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of t

Crafting positive customer experiences has become increasingly crucial for retailers and third-party logistics providers, with delivery playing a pivotal role. Deliveries play a big part in this. With more people buying things online, there are more packages to deliver. This puts a lot of pressure on the companies that deliver these packages, and it's a challenge for both online retailers and thir

Enäggstvillingar delar samma DNA, men är inte identiskt lika. En tvilling kan vara sjuk i typ-2 diabetes, medan den andra tvillingen inte utvecklar sjukdomen. En studie som har letts av Lunds universitet har nu upptäckt att det finns skillnader i genernas aktivitet hos tvillingar med och utan typ 2-diabetes. Forskarnas upptäckt kan bidra till utvecklingen av nya behandlingsmetoder. – Enäggstvillin

Typ 2-diabetes är en komplex sjukdom som kan leda till allvarliga hälsoproblem. Därför är det viktigt att förutse vem som är i riskzonen att utveckla sjukdomen. En stor tvärvetenskaplig studie som har letts av Lunds universitet har identifierat en biomarkör i blodet som kan förutse typ 2-diabetes flera år innan diagnos kan ställas. Diabetes är ett växande folkhälsoproblem, som kan leda till hjärt-

Forskare har identifierat 395 gener med ett annorlunda uttryck hos personer med typ 2-diabetes. En av generna visade sig ha en mycket stark koppling till försämrad insulinfrisättning. Nu vill forskarna undersöka om det går att använda gensaxen CRISPR/Cas9 för att korrigera genens aktivitet. Forskarlagets vetenskapliga artikel som har publicerats i the Journal of Clinical Investigation (JCI) visar

Vad finns det för samband mellan åderförfettning och bakterier i tarm och mun? Forskarna bakom en ny stor studie har funnit flera nya kopplingar. På lång sikt kan kunskapen hjälpa personer med typ 2-diabetes, en grupp som är i riskzonen att utveckla åderförfettning. Åderförfettning, även kallat åderförkalkning, innebär att fett och kalk under lång tid har samlats på insidan av blodkärlen. Då blir
