ERC Advanced Grant for research on ferroelectric transistors

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Lars-Erik Wernersson, professor of nanoelectronics, has received an ERC Advanced Grant for the integration of new materials into the high-performance, energy-efficient transistors and circuit solutions of the future. Silicon is the current material of choice for most transistors and other components. The problem is th

A new multipurpose on-off switch for inhibiting bacterial growth

Researchers in Lund have discovered an antitoxin mechanism that seems to be able to neutralise hundreds of different toxins and may protect bacteria against virus attacks. The mechanism has been named Panacea, after the Greek goddess of medicine whose name has become synonymous with universal cure. The understanding of bacterial toxin and antitoxin mechanisms will be crucial for the future success

“Recipe book” for reprogramming immune cells

In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the “recipe” for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University have now created a library of the 400 factors needed for reprogramming and have begun the work of finding the right combination – the recipe – for each type of immune cell. Our immune system consists of different typ

Always check the magasine carefully

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The idea of publishing research findings in open access journals is in many ways an asset in the research community. Unfortunately, it has also entailed the emergence of many unprofessional agents on the market. Their only purpose is to trick researchers into giving them money. Not only does a successful researcher ne

“I wore a hockey helmet until I was four years old”

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. If you look carefully at Niclas Nilsson’s hands and arms, you can still see the scars from all the injections he has received through the years for his haemophilia, although they have faded considerably since January 2020. That was when he got his last injection. Indeed, since his treatment with gene therapy, Niclas h

Can countries buy other countries?

Despite Greenland belonging to an ally, the NATO country Denmark, the U.S. president does not rule out military action. Ideally, he says he would like to buy Greenland – but is it even possible for one nation to buy another in that way? “Historically, it is entirely possible and has occurred on several occasions. The United States purchased the Louisiana Territory from France in 1803, which at the

Concern when departments are merged

Several faculties have merged different departments or are about to do so. The Faculty of Engineering (LTH) merged two departments at the turn of the year, the Facult of Social Sciences has decided on one merger and is on the way to a second, while the Faculty of Science will make a decision after the summer. In a policy decision last year, the Faculty of Social Sciences decided that within a few

Chasing the storm

It is half past three in the morning on one of the last nights of October. Storm Babet is raging and most people are trying to sleep through the sound of the wind, but coastal researchers at LTH are wide awake. Strong winds combined with high water levels are a warning sign for communities on the south coast of Skåne, and that’s where the researchers are heading, to the heart of the action. They a

When studies depend on interpretation

Lund University sociology student Julia Grahn is among those who receive learning support. She is deaf and is provided with sign-language interpretation during her studies. Cilla Riber Alm is one of the sign-language interpreters who work with deaf students at the University. LUM has spoken to both of them. “In all educational situations, such as lectures, seminars and group work, I have access to

Researchers aim to change travel norms and reduce air travel at Lund University

Although emissions from air travel at Lund University have slightly decreased compared to last year*, longer journeys remain a major source of emissions. Now, a group of five researchers from different departments is tackling the challenge of shifting travel norms and reducing air travel with fresh perspectives. Funded by the University's Sustainability Fund ("Hållbarhetsfonden"), the project, ‘Bi

In search of the shadow of the invisible

Visible matter in the universe represents only five per cent of everything that exists. The rest is invisible dark matter and dark energy. Particle physicist Ruth Pöttgen is one of the Lund University researchers involved in the search for the mysterious dark matter of the universe. She is standing at her whiteboard in a small office at Fysicum. With the help of her pen, Ruth Pöttgen tries to pain

LU staff are best at sustainable commuting

The results from the autumn travel habits survey show that a majority of the University’s staff (approx. 80%) get to and from work by walking, cycling or using public transport. This is a higher percentage than for other large organisations in Lund. However, there is potential for even more people to commute sustainably by investments in public transport and measures to promote cycling on campus.
