On 8 April, it was time for the the annual table tennis tournament at LUSEM, and this year also marked its 11th anniversary! Finally it was that time again, time for table tennis at LUSEM. The tournament first started in 2013 but has had three breaks over the years, which is why the 10-year celebration took place last year. (See the fact box for more details on past years and winners.)This year 24

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. It feels almost shameful to admit, but climate change has always felt like something abstract and far away. Of course, I know that climate change is happening. I can explain the greenhouse effect. I even use climate change as an argument for banning meat from my diet, reducing my consumption of animal-based products,

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The earth is both inundated and drying up. Water supply is a complex phenomenon that has probably never been more complicated – or more important – than now. Kenneth M. Persson is a professor of water resources engineering and he took the initiative for Lund University’s Water Portal, which involves over 200 (!) water

A new international commission will pave the way for a global boost in maternal and newborn health. The project is led by a researcher at Lund University in Sweden, whose motivation stems from a formative experience witnessing a woman bleed to death unnecessarily during childbirth. “The time has come to put maternal and newborn health back at the heart of the global health agenda,” says Mehreen Za

CASE researchers Björn Slaug and Susanne Iwarsson have shown that their instrument for assessing accessibility in housing for the elderly also works in Japan - even though it was originally developed according to Swedish conditions. Swedish research contributes to improving public health in Japan.– Through long-term and careful work, we have been able to transfer it to a very different cultural co

Förståelse för hur temperaturen förändrats genom historien hjälper forskare att dra viktiga slutsatser om framtidens klimat. I en ny studie har svenska och kinesiska klimatforskare lyckats lägga ett tusenårigt pussel över Arktis historiska temperaturförändringar. Under de senaste decennierna har temperaturerna i Arktis stigit 2–3 gånger snabbare än den globala medeltemperaturen. Fenomenet kallas a

Det är nu några år sedan de första teoretiska artiklarna kom om ”programmatic assessment”. Bakomliggande resonemang är att de studenter som kommer till våra utbildningar sannolikt har förmågan att klara utbildningen och vi borde lägga mer tid på att se till att varje individ utmanas på den nivå man är, för att ständigt säkra utveckling.

Sociala medier har gett oss stora möjligheter att redigera den bild vi vill ge av oss själva, och allt fler vårdar sina personliga varumärken på internet med omsorg.

Tanken med upphandlingar är att säkerställa rätt vara eller tjänst, till rätt pris. Men vad händer när upphandlingar medvetet struktureras för att inte bjuda in till överklagningar – eller helt enkelt avbryts i förtid? Fredrik Tesch-Morawetz doktorsavhandling i handelsrätt tar upp detta. Den prisas av Ekonomihögskolan som fakultetens bästa avhandling från 2019. Varje år köper det offentliga Sverig
