Den som själv är aktiv lär sig mer än den som bara lyssnar på andra. Därför jobbar jag mycket med tvärgrupper på olika sätt i min undervisning. Grundidén är att alla studenter ska få möjlighet att prata mycket samtidigt som de blir motiverade att själva ta ansvar för samtalet och därmed för sitt eget lärande.

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Diabetessjukdomarna har haft många namn. Från de som fanns innan insulinbehandling introducerades, sjukdomen beskrevs då som en mild form, en svårartad och en farlig till dagens mångfald av olika diabetessjukdomar. Den alltmer brokiga bilden är ett resultat av de växande insikterna om orsaken till sjukdomen och om v

Den 18 november släpptes en nyhet vi aldrig hade kunnat drömma om: Lunds universitet har rankats som etta i QS Hållbarhetsrankning. Vi har alltså inte bara blivit rankade som etta i Sverige och i Europa utan som etta i hela världen! Detta är nog första gången som ett svenskt eller nordiskt universitet rankas först i världen i en av de stora rankningarna. Årets rankning baseras på cirka 2000 univer

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The TEDDY Study has increased our knowledge about what happens prior to the onset of autoimmune diabetes (type 1 diabetes) and has shown that a stomach infection can trigger coeliac disease.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The flight speed of birds is more complex than research has previously managed to show. In a new study from Lund University in Sweden, researchers have found that birds use multiple – each one simple yet effective - methods to control their speed in the air and compensate for tailwind, headwind and sidewind. Last year
