Varför gör människor motstånd mot åtgärder som ska skydda dem mot klimatrisker? Denna fråga utforskas i en studie från Lunds universitet som kartlägger var, och i vilka sammanhang, olika grupper motsätter sig klimatanpassningar. – Klimatanpassning ses alltmer som något nödvändigt och bra, där brist på pengar eller kapacitet är det enda hindret för framgångsrika lösningar. Människor som inte vill m

Har flygfrittrörelsens uppmaningar om att stanna på marken och konsumera mindre fått genomslag? Vad som kan tillskrivas ekonomiska faktorer, förändrade sociala normer eller en kombination av de båda är oklart – men flygresandet i Sverige har minskat med 20 procent sedan före pandemin. – Rörelsen vill uppnå förändring genom att synliggöra andra sätt att resa, och i ett större perspektiv, andra sätt

In an ideal world, perhaps the Psychological Defence Research Institute in Helsingborg would not even exist. But the global situation has brought attention, increased research funding and significant interest in collaboration from wider society. “The entire research institute is built around the idea that the world is troubled.

The Pereira research group has previously shown that it is possible to reprogram human skin cells into dendritic cells that strengthen the immune system. However, the efficiency of these reprogrammed cells has been shown to be very low. New studies now indicate that there are ways to increase the efficiency of these reprogrammed cells by over 75%. These findings provide mechanistic insights into h

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Näst efter klimatförändringarna, är förlusten av biologisk mångfald den största miljöutmaning som världen står inför. Förlusten av växt- och djurarter innebär också en förlust av de resurser som människan får av en fungerande natur. Vid Lunds universitet pågår ett projekt där man tittar på hur man arbetar med så kal

Christian Balkenius is giving this a lot of thought, as it is the topic of his research project. However, he is also thinking about ethics among robot researchers.  “It’s often said that we have advanced further than we actually have done. The aim of the re
