Three Lund University research projects have been selected for the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA) 2026 list, which highlights Swedish research with the potential to benefit society. Previously known colloquially in Sweden as the "100 list" and published annually between 2019 and 2024, IVA's list returns in 2026 in a renewed and more selective form, highlighting around 30 ongoi

What obstacles stand in the way of user-centred working, and what is needed to succeed? Many organisations want to adopt a user-centred approach, but a new doctoral thesis shows that success is elusive when conflicting demands and a lack of organisational support throw a spanner in the works. Today, there is considerable pressure on organisations to work in a user-centred way. There is talk of use

They become smaller as urbanisation increases. Troublesome, according to researcher Helena Hanson, because urban private gardens affect both cities’ biodiversity and human wellbeing by functioning as social green spaces. Now she strikes a blow for gardens in the urban planning. Green spaces, such as parks and allotment gardens, have a major impact on our physical and mental health and wellbeing –

It is not just the environment and the economy that are threatened by a warmer climate, but also culture and traditions around the word. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden and the University of Queensland in Australia have mapped what little is known about how climate change is eroding local knowledge and cultural heritage. “We risk losing the memory of Indigenous people’s ways of life witho

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. RQ20, the new major research quality evaluation, is underway! It is based on self-evaluations and will involve around 5 000 members of staff. In contrast to the last time, in 2008, there is no extra money for the fields of research that come out best. There will be no grades or gold stars. “However, the evaluation wil

Many might assume that we are powerless in the face of ongoing sea-level rise, and that the risk of flooding is inevitable near the coast. However, how governments choose to develop coastal regions is affecting exposure to flooding more than climate threats, according to a new study. The research analyses flood risk scenarios in China’s coastal zone from 2020 all the way until 2100. Across the wor

Lund University sociology student Julia Grahn is among those who receive learning support. She is deaf and is provided with sign-language interpretation during her studies. Cilla Riber Alm is one of the sign-language interpreters who work with deaf students at the University.

In mid-January, protesters and police clashed in the village of Lützerath in Germany after the village was occupied for a long time in an attempt to prevent the extension of a large open-pit coal mine that will swallow the village. The occupation is just one example of the increasingly widespread struggle to defend the environment and prevent greenhouse gas emissions, according to LUCSUS researche

Huntington’s disease is hereditary, genetic and usually begins between the ages of 30 and 50. In Sweden, around 1,000 people have the diagnosis and several thousand live with the risk of getting the disease. Even more people have a connection to the disease as its symptoms also affect those close to the patient to a high degree. The disease leads to premature death and there are no treatments that

Textile – a growing sustainability challengeWe are buying more clothes than ever before, but there is still no efficient system to close the material loop.

Som svenskt lärosäte behöver Lunds universitet se till så att studenter med funktionsnedsättning kommer i jämförbar situation med andra studenter.

Men många forskare har kritiserat trädplantering som en problematisk metod, som istället riskerar att ta fokus från att vi drastiskt måste minska utsläppen om vi ska klara klimatet.

Personer med ursprung i Mellanöstern och Afrika är särskilt utsatta för diskriminering och trakasserier i arbetslivet. Denna utsatthet kan leda till minoritetsstress, vilket i sin tur riskerar att orsaka långvarig psykisk ohälsa. Detta menar Martin Wolgast och Sima Nurali Wolgast, psykologiforskare vid Lunds universitet, i en ny rapport. Studien, som gjordes på uppdrag av Myndigheten för arbetsmil
