NASA Swift satellite and AI unravel the distance of the farthest gamma-ray bursts. In this project, LUSEM Statistics Professor Malgorzata Bogdan, consulted on the choice of statistical methods and the interpretation of the results. The research article was published in Astrophysical Journal Letters on 24 May. Astronomers are now using AI, quite literally, to measure the expansion of our universe.

A new study shows that an AI assistant can conduct assessment conversations with patients with higher accuracy than the rating scales used in healthcare today. In the study, 303 participants were interviewed by the AI assistant Alba, who then suggested possible psychiatric diagnoses. In addition to being interviewed by an AI assistant, the participants also had to fill out standardized rating scal

For six months, artist Jennifer Rainsford will be exploring MAX IV – one of the world’s largest research laboratories for synchrotron light. Inside the ring-shaped MAX IV building on the outskirts of Lund, extremely intense X-ray light known as synchrotron light is produced. The light, which is not visible to the naked eye, is used by researchers from around the globe to study materials, molecules

 A new study from Lund confirms that pesticides commonly used in farmland significantly harm bumblebees. Data from 106 sites across 8 European countries show that despite tightened pesticide regulations, more needs to be done.Despite claims of the world's most rigorous risk assessment process, the use of approved pesticides in European agricultural landscapes still negatively affects non-target or

We are now initiating an open and transparent process to develop profile areas in order to be well prepared when it is time to submit an application for national profile areas, and also to become even better at getting together to address common issues at the University. The Swedish government states in both the Research Bill and in the autumn’s budget proposal that it intends to allocate part of

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In a new study from Lund University in Sweden, researchers investigated the risk factors for blood clots, i.e. venous thromboembolism (VTE). The results show a strong correlation between height and VTE risk for both women and men. The risk increases with height. Tall people have a higher hydrostatic pressure in the bo

On 11 May, Storydesk was launched – a new initiative from Lund University focusing on in-depth stories about research and innovation. The first story is about three decades of wireless communication, beginning with an adjunct professor’s persistent idea to cut the headphone cable once and for all. This focus on in-depth stories addresses a need that has become apparent in the university-wide work

Metformin is often described as the first-line medication for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. However, not all patients respond to the drug. Researchers at Lund University have discovered a combination of biomarkers that can predict which patients will benefit from the treatment. This work is now continuing in order to confirm the results in a larger patient group, with the intention of developi
