Errors detected in several historical consumer price indices

New research from Lund University found several inaccuracies in historical CPIs in popular online databases. The findings can have major consequences for future research. Faults in the data might already have influenced decisions made by politicians regarding economic policy, according to Jonas Ljungberg, Professor emeritus of Economic History. Jonas Ljungberg needed access to different European c

What city life will be like if we reach our climate goals

In political debate, the notion of climate transition is often presented as a road lined with sacrifices. Many researchers, however, paint a picture of a day-to-day life that could be better than today’s. What is experienced as good or bad varies from one person to the next, and may vary over time.  “Whether something is getting better or worse is, of course, a subjective judgement. Norms change o

The body’s fantastic defence system gets help in the fight against cancer

T cells, antibodies, immune defences – concepts we have learnt more about after a couple of years of a global Covid-19 pandemic. Understanding of how the immune system works against cancer is another major issue for research and development of new treatments. ‟Antibodies have been used in cancer care for close to 25 years but it is over the past five years that new techniques and treatments have t

Early detection of diseases is aided by the body’s own nanoparticles

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A hot topic among cancer researchers is vesicles, nanoparticles that flow in our veins in their billions and which have proven to hold information on the health status of the body. Now the hope is to be able to capture and decode the messages in the vesicles via a standard blood test. Thomas Laurell,  professor of bio

Successful experiment paves the way for new element

Scientists have found an alternative way to produce atoms of the superheavy element livermorium. The new method opens up the possibility of creating another element that could be the heaviest in the world so far: number 120. The search for new elements comes from the dream of finding a variant that is sufficiently stable to be long-lived and not prone to immediate decay. There is a theory in nucle
