New article by Ted Svensson and Agnes Cornell on the introduction of merit reforms in nineteenth-century Britain and its possible colonial origins. In a newly published article in Governance, Ted Svensson (together with Agnes Cornell) explores whether the inspiration to reform the British Civil Service, along the lines suggested in the 1854 Northcote-Trevelyan Report, was drawn from the introducti
Investigation of a metre-long front flipper, uniquely preserved with fossilized soft tissues, has revealed that the giant ichthyosaur Temnodontosaurus was equipped with flow control devices that likely served to suppress self-generated noise when foraging in dimly lit pelagic environments about 183 million years ago. Thus, this visually guided megapredator relied on underwater stealth—or ‘silent s

The exhibition “Coded Threads” traces threads from the origin of the digital, the woven fabric, into today’s and tomorrow’s digital realities. The loom is the basis of binary coding: the thread can go over or under the warp, be a one or a zero. The thread is coded and acquires meaning – becomes an image, a pattern, a calculation, an algorithm. Everything can become data through the thread in the w

A research team has created artificial animals that over time develop functioning vision from scratch – from simple light sensitivity to the ability to discern objects. This happened despite the fact that the digital creatures weren’t given any instructions. The results show how AI can be used to understand the inner secrets of evolution. Imagine that you are sitting in front of a computer. In the

New blood tests for diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease are making early diagnosis increasingly feasible. However, the fact that the markers being measured change long before any symptoms develop represents a challenge. Research led by Lund University in Sweden shows that a previously unused blood marker, when combined with those markers already in use, can significantly reduce the risk of misleading d
