IIIEE is taking the lead on open, month-long online courses, known as MOOCs. The investment in MOOCs has been quite a success. In recent years, every sixth student has stated that the online courses influenced them to apply for one of the IIIEE’s traditional courses or programmes. That MOOCs attract students to study programmes is only one of several positive aspects. The opportunity to collaborat

If we can understand how and why light and matter behave as they do, we are one step closer to solving some of the most fundamental problems in physics. Finding the answers to these questions drives Ville Maisi, Associate Professor of Solid States Physics, Department of Physics. As long as he can remember he has been interested electric circuits and physics. With the support of a new ERC Consolida

Researchers have successfully mapped the entire genome of the Eurasian spruce bark beetle. The breakthrough paves the way for new research into bark beetles and better prospects for effective pest control of a species that can destroy more than 100 million cubic metres of spruce forest during a single year in Europe and Asia. Mapping the genome of the Eurasian spruce bark beetle enables a far deep

Nicholas Leigh came from the United States to Sweden and Lund University four years ago. In his research, he focuses on salamanders and how they can recreate body parts such as legs, tails and even components of the heart. It was the ability of moose to grow new antlers after shedding that first sparked Nicholas Leigh’s interest in regenerative research. For practical reasons, the choice fell on s

In healthcare, treatments developed for broad patient groups are often used. This is not always an effective approach. Sweden’s innovation agency Vinnova has therefore distributed research grants to eleven Swedish innovation environments whose research aims to develop more individually adapted healthcare for patients. The stem cell researchers at the IndiCell innovation environment have been award

Research in particle physics often relies on sizable, cutting-edge computing resources for analysing large datasets, producing simulation samples, or developing and running complex machine learning models. While particle physics has been a pioneer in dealing with many “big science” issues and raised the stakes in the Large Hadron Collider era,today it is by no means isolated. More and more researc
