Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a digital cognitive test for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease that is intended for use in primary care. “This digital test, which patients perform on their own with minimal involvement from healthcare personnel, improves the primary care physician's ability to determine who should be further examined by blood tests for Alzheimer's pathology ear

Our health in later life is shaped not only by the way we live, what our childhood was like or our time in our mothers’ wombs. Even our parents’ health and lifestyle at the time of our conception may affect our health. Peter M Nilsson, professor of clinical cardiovascular research at Lund University, is calling for a major investment in health and lifestyle advice for adolescents and those plannin

Lund University needs long-term strategies with clear priorities from the faculties of what type of research to invest in, agree the two new pro vice-chancellors Stacey Ristinmaa Sörensen and Bo Ahrén. They also recognise the difficulty of achieving this at a university as comprehensive as Lund. “Our breadth is definitely our strength, but it can also present problems”, says Bo Ahrén. The two new

Three researchers within the Social Science Faculty at Lund University have compiled an anthology challenging the notion of the refugee crisis of 2015. The book also investigates how Germany, Sweden, and Denmark use bureaucracy to control, discipline, and shape asylum seekers’ lives. In 2015, the number of asylum seekers arriving in the EU doubled from the previous year, totalling at over 1.3 mill

When you start teaching using the flipped classroom or make use of digital media to free up time for more active student participation methods in the classroom, you might sometimes feel that it is difficult to come up with meaningful activities for the students to spend time on now that there is a time surplus in the classroom, especially if you were previously used to lecturing for a large propor

By invading Ukraine, Russia is not only violating international law - it is also preventing people in Ukraine from enjoying the most basic human rights, such as the right to health care, medicine and education. Lena Halldenius and Jessica Almqvist, both professors of human rights and coordinators of Lund University's new profile area Human Rights in a Polarised World, answer four questions about h

The quest to control the remarkable phenomena of quantum physics is ongoing around the world. This year’s Nobel Prize in Physics is making the subject even hotter. Lund University is also involved in exploring the unknown – and at times mind-boggling – perspectives of quantum states. Mathieu Gisselbrecht, senior lecturer in Physics, leads the way down the basement corridor of the Laser Centre at F

An international team of researchers has investigated whether oral insulin can prevent early signs of type 1 diabetes and clinical diagnosis in children with an increased risk of developing the disease. Although treatment with oral insulin could not prevent development of diabetes-related autoantibodies, oral insulin delayed the rate of disease progression in children who developed such autoantibo

The new Research Data Office is to make it easier for researchers to manage their research data throughout the research process. Improved and more accessible online support is now being launched in the form of unified webpages, a university-wide support service and a new, easier way to register research documents that requires neither a course nor logging in to the W3D3 system. Unified webpages on

Every day, huge amounts of satellite images are collected from the Earth's surface – data that shows everything from deforestation to urbanization and the effects of climate change. Now, with the support of the Swedish National Space Board, a new competence center is being established to make it easier for social scientists to use space-based information. The new national center, the Swedish Compe

Corrosion-resistant metallic materials are required in applications such as rocket engines, nuclear power stations and chemical industry. An alloy of nickel, chromium, and molybdenum is often used. However, a new study shows that this alloy rusts in a previously unknown way. Buildings, modes of transport, artworks, and music instruments – we encounter metallic materials almost everywhere in societ

Metal patterns printed on a III-V semiconductor material can control the appearance and positions of droplets arising on its surface when heated. The result is a significant step forward for controlled device fabrication on a chip. Semiconductor materials are used in electronic devices because of their unique electrical properties.

Light of a certain wavelength can be used to put so-called active materials into motion and control their movement. In the future, this discovery can become significant in widely different areas such as environmental protection, medicine and the development of new materials which can be programmed. Joakim Stenhammar at Lund University in Sweden led the study where he, together with colleagues from

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered that the appetite hormone CART is regulated by glucose and is found in greater quantity in people with type 2 diabetes. “This could be the body’s own defence mechanism to lower blood sugar levels in case of type 2 diabetes”, says Associate Professor Nils Wierup, in charge of the study. The study shows that the appetite hormone CART not only
