In connection with a new report on measures to mitigate climate change, researchers at Lund University in Sweden see some hopeful signs. Among other things, Lars J Nilsson, Professor of Environmental and Energy Systems at Lund University, thinks there are good prospects for achieving zero emissions by 2050 in industries such as steel, cement, and chemicals, which are currently responsible for majo

Physics researchers at Lund University in Sweden recently succeeded in constructing small solar radiation-collecting antennas – nanowires – using three different materials that are a better match for the solar spectrum compared with today’s silicon solar cells. As the nanowires are light and require little material per unit of area, they are now to be installed for tests on satellites, which are p

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden are investigating a car fuel comprised of a liquid that is converted to hydrogen by a solid catalyst. The used liquid is then emptied from the tank and charged with hydrogen, after which it can be used again in a circular system that is free from greenhouse gas emissions. In two research articles, Lund researchers have demonstrated that the method works, an

For over 60 years, scientists have tried to determine whether plants are pollinated primarily during the day or at night — without reaching a clear conclusion. Now, a major research review from Lund University in Sweden has revealed that nighttime pollinators play just as significant a role as daytime species in 90 percent of the cases studied. Most of us know how important bees, birds, and butter

Life can feel a little overwhelming in the times we live where society is less homogenous, and individualism prevails although many of our challenges require cooperation between different interests, ideologies, and countries. Human beings need to feel meaning, hope and motivation to overcome difficulties and to find new solutions. Therefore, we need to understand more about existential sustainabil

Diabetes researchers at Lund University have previously shown that people with diabetes can be stratified into five subgroups with differing disease progression. A new study by the same researchers provides increased evidence for the clinical relevance of the classification system. The researchers also present new findings of significant differences between subgroups in the development of complica

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Ceremonies have a certain power that speaks more to the emotions than to the intellect. This is the opinion of the newly inaugurated vice-chancellor Erik Renström, who sees the value in academic traditions. In his management team, however, new winds are blowing, bringing with them the values of “integrity” and “charac

The focus in the autumn will be to outline the research infrastructure of the future based on the Krantz report, follow up the results of the University’s e-infrastructure inquiry and highlight information and IT security at LU. The transition from dean of the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) to pro vice-chancellor for research infrastructure and digitalisation has been an exciting experience. Excitin

Medvetenskapens Hus is a cross-faculty initiative that aims to accommodate creative meetings between science and human science. The activities are to be based on the complex issues of our time which in a natural way affect all faculties and subject areas. Medvetenskapens Hus highlights the importance of insights above the formation of opinions and creates conditions for joint creation of knowledge

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Wolfgang Knorr, a researcher at the Department of Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science, is one of three authors of a high-profile climate article recently published in The Conversation. The article, about our future carbon footprint, has received widespread coverage after being shared on Twitter by Greta Thunberg.

– The tutor's most important task is to create a good cooperative climate in the group. If this is achieved, it can be very inspiring to see the enormous development the students undergo, says Håkan Axelson, Assistant head of department for undergraduate and advanced education at the Department of laboratory medicine and himself a longtime tutor. What does a tutor do? – The concept of a tutor is a

Climate solutions exist – so why isn’t more happening? On 9 December, researchers from University of Cambridge and Lund University will gather in Lund and online to try to find answers to how we can accelerate the climate transition. The UN climate panel is clear: human activity is already affecting extreme weather, ecosystems, our health, and livelihoods worldwide. At the same time, there are a r
