Why do humans and other mammals have two kidneys, but only one heart and one brain? “Because the kidneys are so important, of course!” says Diana Karpman – partly joking and partly serious. As a consultant and professor in nephrology, she really does think these organs are among the most essential in the body. Diana Karpmans work has been very rewarding. In a healthy individual, the kidneys lead a

In this equation, Pontus Nordenfelt from Future Faculty calls for more honesty and clearer career paths. Pontus Nordenfelt.

Data gathering for European climate research goes on around the clock at the University’s Hyltemossa research station. The tallest of its two masts reaches as high as 150 metres straight up into the sky. Every other week, the station’s staff must climb to the top of the mast to clean two sensors. Recently, intensive work has been conducted on the lower mast to install equipment to study how the em

Although patient influence in healthcare has gradually started to increase, the role of the patient's next of kin is still very limited. Despite the fact that the disease affects the whole family, public healthcare often does not utilise the patient's relatives as a resource. A lot has happened in cancer care since Marlene Malmström started working in surgery many years ago. At that time, pretty m

An international study can now show how tau spreads according to four distinct patterns that lead to different symptoms with different prognoses of the affected individuals. The study was published in Nature Medicine. “In contrast to how we have so far interpreted the spread of tau in the

More people working from home does not necessarily mean less travel. On the contrary, leisure travel may increase to compensate for sedentary work in the home, according to transport researcher Lena Winslott Hiselius. This can become a challenge for public transport. There are strong indications that remote working is here to stay, at least in part and in certain workplaces. Lena Winslott Hiselius

Crashing computers or smartphones - and security loopholes that allow hackers to steal millions of passwords - could be prevented if it were possible to design error-free software. To date, this is a problem that neither engineers nor current supercomputers have been able to solve. A major reason for this is the computing power required to verify large programs. Today’s computers use vast amounts

Where, how often, and how much it is going to rain or snow in the future is difficult to predict. Anders Ahlström studies the importance of precipitation for ecosystems on Earth – and contributes with new knowledge in a complex and fraught area. Across the world, researchers are in agreement on future warming patterns. However, future precipitation is more difficult to predict, and climate models
