As only the second team ever, the LU team made it to the semifinals and finished sixth in this year's John Molson MBA International Case Competition – the largest case competition of its kind. What happens when four students, inexperienced in case solving, come together with their teacher and coach and in a very short time train intensely with the goal to win the world's largest case competition o

Large ships often run on heavy fuel oil, something that leads to pollution and considerable emissions. However, one promising alternative is building or converting engines to run on methanol instead. The Fastwater project led by Lund University in Sweden has received EUR 5 million from the EU to develop the new technology. In 2022, a pilot boat is expected to be launched. The Paris Agreement and a

The lab that will take us closer to the aviation fuel of the future has now opened. The Jet Engine Lab at Lund University makes it possible to conduct full-scale studies on how engines are affected by new fuels – knowledge that will become increasingly important when fossil-based aviation fuels are phased out and replaced by more sustainable alternatives. The Jet Engine Lab is at LU's School of Av

Anna Stubbendorff, a recent PhD graduate from the Faculty of Medicine, has been awarded Lund University’s Agenda 2030 Award 2026. She is being recognised for research showing that when we put climate-friendly food on our plates, it benefits both the environment and our personal health. In her doctoral thesis, Anna Stubbendorff has studied the effects of the EAT-Lancet diet, a dietary pattern desig

Recently, a new instrument on the four-metre VISTA telescope at the European Southern Observatory in Chile captured its first starlight. This marks the start of a new era in astronomy, where researchers will map the sky in unprecedented detail. The instrument, called 4MOST (Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope), does not take ordinary images of the night sky. Instead, it collects spectra or colour

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden are testing a treatment for type 2 diabetes which targets the disease mechanism itself - and not just the symptoms. For the first time, knowledge about the individual patient’s genetic risk profile is being used. The treatment completely restores the capacity to secrete insulin

LUCSUS research tackles complex sustainability challenges, from the local to the global scale. Last year, in 2025, our researchers participated in many events and forums to present their work, including in conferences, panel debates and meetings – often in collaboration with actors outside of academia. LUCSUS outreach work aims to contribute to policy and drive social change. Global Health Symposi

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Threats and hate speech from outside are certainly very trying. But could they be even worse when they come from within the organisation? What if you barely dare to go to work because you get threatened – or you are not even allowed in to work because you are accused of threatening someone else? The vice dean of the F

An evolutionary perspective should be taken into account to ensure long-term crop pollination. This is the conclusion of an article published by BECC and CEC-affiliated researchers at Lund University. The researchers build on recent findings that evolutionary processes, in response to landscape change, are happening faster than previously thought. The article presents a model that can help us unde

“We must understand the ageing process itself in order to help people with conditions such as Alzheimer’s and dementia, and to possibly enable us to prevent these diseases from arising”, says Henrik Ahlenius of the Stem Cell Centre at Lund University. His aim is to develop an experimental model for human nerve cell ageing that enables the researchers to understand why a disease is triggered. In th
