'We can't build cities that are fundamentally unsustainable and expect individual behaviour change to solve the problems. Urban development must contribute to norm change by actively redistributing resources,' says Alva Zalar in her thesis. Can a new neighbourhood be a spearhead for sustainability if it has a huge shopping mall at its heart? And to what extent can urban planning influence the way

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have used virtual reality and 3D eye-tracking technology to examine what drew the attention of the visitors when entering the stunning environment of an ancient Roman house. The team recreated the House of Greek Epigrams in 3D and tracked the gaze of study participants as they viewed the home. Unlike today, Roman houses were not a place of refuge from work.

Fr vä: Mohsin Mohammed, Jens Schoenborg, Johan Agorelius och Alexander Dontsios Holmkvist. För att studera hur hjärnan fungerar och utveckla nya tekniker för behandling av neurologiska sjukdomar har forskare vid Lunds universitet utvecklat vävnadsvänliga och flexibla mikroelektroder som är ungefär en tiondel så tjocka som ett hårstrå. Nu har tre av doktoranderna i forskargruppen precis disputerat.
