This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Why does Lund University manage farms in Skåne? It’s a matter of tradition.

That eating plenty of vegetables, wholegrains and legumes is beneficial for health is well known. More surprising, however, is that people who eat in a environmentally-friendly way also display nutritional values that are better than researchers had expected. This is shown in a new study by Anna Stubbendorff at the Agenda 2030 Graduate School. The EAT–Lancet diet is a global dietary guideline deve

Pathologists and coroners are now commonplace in crime novels and TV crime series and are often depicted as slightly odd people. Elisabet Englund has worked at the Division of Pathology in Lund for over 40 years. She has often been told that she is a little ‘too happy’ to be a pathologist. “Yes, there is a stereotype of people who work with dead people, which perhaps contributes to the mystificati

But could they be even worse when they come from within the organisation?

Lack of habitats and climate change – parameters that scientists know affect the number of pollinators in the world. But exactly how big is the effect and what else contributes to the decline of bees and bumblebees?

Delving into the realm where light and matter converge, Mattias Bertolino's embarks on a theoretical exploration of photoionization. Focusing on multiphoton ionization of noble gas atoms, using a mixture of extreme-ultraviolet and infrared light, he explores the intricate interplay between light and matter. He aims to improve our understanding of the fundamental interactions between light and matt

That life is not fair is hardly news. But that inequalities are at risk of increasing as we seek to improve the health of the population is perhaps unexpected. Health economics is a way of evaluating the potential health benefits of different interventions, setting them against the economic cost and their impact on society. Over two million people in Sweden are currently living with cardiovascular

Local currencies may arise when there is a clear need for certain products and services in a local area and where the competences to produce them exist but the lack of traditional money puts obstacles in the way.
