Kan spel fungera som en metod för att sprida kunskap och inspirera till handling? Om man frågar Karl Sterner Isaksson och Jagdeep Singh så är svaret på detta ett självklart ja! De är båda aktuella mer varsitt spel om biologisk mångfald respektive matsvinn, och de ser spel som ett sätt att förvandla komplexa miljöutmaningar till något begripligt, engagerande – och roligt!

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Ninety thousand people die in Sweden every year. Despite 80 percent of Sweden’s population stating they would like to donate their organs after death, fewer than 200 people actually become organ donors each year. Why? This is due to, among other reasons, our limited legislation and organs not being made available beca

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The construction of a dam in Ethiopia could solve many problems for the growing population along the Nile. However, when the construction of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam began, it was met with warmongering from countries downstream. Egypt in particular felt threatened by the dam, which would regulate the Nile,

In the early 1950s, no one knew what caused Parkinson's disease. Then, Arvid Carlsson's discovery of dopamine opened the door to world-leading transplantations for Parkinson's patients. Thanks to the pioneering basic research at MultiPark, stemcell-derived neural cells can now be tested in a clinical trial for the first time. In Parkinson's disease, the nerve cells in an area of the brain that con

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. It feels almost shameful to admit, but climate change has always felt like something abstract and far away. Of course, I know that climate change is happening. I can explain the greenhouse effect. I even use climate change as an argument for banning meat from my diet, reducing my consumption of animal-based products,

Since February, Professor Glyn Williams has been working with us. We were curious about who Glyn is and what his research is about, so we decided to ask him a few questions to get to know him a little better. Hi, Glyn! And welcome to Lund University. Which university did you recently come from?– Thank you! I came from University of Sheffield, where I worked from 2006, having previously held posts

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In this blog post by LUCSUS researcher Maja Essebo, she discusses academic critique, and highlights, that once we have identified the faults, we need to do what little or large we can to adress and amend them.‘There is no outside to spectacular capitalism. Any alternative must be found from the inside.’ Don Mitchell s

Since April, the second part of a sustainable mobility project, which is to examine all staff and students’ travel habits to and from campus, has been underway. The aim of the project is to reduce the negative impact of our travel to and from work/studies on sustainability and the environment. Lund University currently has around 8,000 employees and 46,000 students, which means a lot of people tra

How credible are research results? A new biology study shows that the same data can give different answers depending on the method of analysis used – raising questions about the stability of scientific conclusions. To strengthen credibility, researchers need to be better at accounting for their methods. Ever since the 17th century, when modern scientific research was born, methods have been refine

What are AI writing tools and how do they affect our assessments? Three main options for considering AI writing tools in assessment are: 1. to ban their use, 2. to assume that they may be used, and set tasks which incorporate them or 3. require them to be used – to fully incorporate the tools in the assessment.

The machines have started rolling in at Norunda and are cutting down trees, one by one. Norunda is Sweden’s oldest measuring station for greenhouse gases and it is unique. Following several decades of being surrounded by a hundred-year-old forest, it will instead be surrounded by a clear-cut. - We expect a significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions, says professor Natascha Kljun at CEC.

Olof the bird – a stuffed bird of prey with a stern expression – currently stands in the heart of The Science Student Union (LUNA), keeping watch over students’ discussions and union activities. But few are eager to get too close. A sign next to him warns that his plumage contains arsenic.  The warning has become a talking point – is Olof really so toxic that he should be placed behind protective

When you take a dip in a Swedish lake, it is not unusual to find you cannot see the lake bottom. Lake water coloured brown by organic material can be an inconvenience for swimming tourists, but mainly causes problems for the ecosystem and drinking water. Focusing on Lake Bolmen, researchers, public authorities and local organisations are now joining forces in a research project to find methods tha

How do birds avoid collision when flying in dense foliage and other cramped environments with many obstacles? And what does flying in such complex environments entail for the birds? These were the questions Per Henningsson of Lund University in Sweden pondered before engaging the help of the family’s own pet budgie to get some answers. His study has now been published in Royal Society Open Science
