This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A desire to be able to freely carry out research and the chance to provide her daughter with a good education led Pinar Dinc to leave Turkey. It is a journey that is not over yet. However, with another prestigious research grant from Formas she feels secure in Lund for the next three years.   “I would be able to begin

The war in Gaza has caused conflict at universities in Sweden and abroad. Overcoming the differences between protestors and university managements and within groups of employees is likely to take time. We met with both Lund University’s Vice-Chancellor and protestors from the encampment in Lundagård. In this edition of LUM, they share their visions of how to move forward. We have also interviewed

With his cycling helmet perched on his head, he rushes in like a whirlwind, fires off monosyllabic replies to emails and then asks thoughtful questions during meetings while simultaneously managing to work away on his computer. For Henrik Smith, life moves at a hundred miles an hour. But he is also a lauded professor with an awful lot to do. Henrik Smith, you see, wants to save the world. Has he g

Den viktigaste insikten är att studenter är olika och behöver olika sätt att bli motiverade, olika sätt att ta till sig kunskap och olika sätt att presentera sin kunskap. Studenterna ska kunna fokusera på sitt lärande och känna sig välkomna. Hur ska jag hinna med? Som lärare och studierektor frågar jag mig själv, och får frågor om, hur man som lärare ska hinna med att göra sin undervisning mer til

Researchers at Lund University have produced the most detailed map of carbon emissions from Swedish forest fires to date. The results show that the largest emissions occur below the ground surface, in peat and organic soils. During the extremely hot summer of 2018, 324 forest fires were reported in Sweden. Using field measurements, models, and data from the Swedish Forest Agency, the Swedish Envir

The machines have started rolling in at Norunda and are cutting down trees, one by one. Norunda is Sweden’s oldest measuring station for greenhouse gases and it is unique. Following several decades of being surrounded by a hundred-year-old forest, it will instead be surrounded by a clear-cut. - We expect a significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions, says professor Natascha Kljun at CEC.

A new technology that makes hydrogen from forestry and agricultural residues that are currently burnt is being developed at Lund University. The plan is to efficiently produce a green gas that society needs - while cutting carbon emissions. The researchers' European consortium has received SEK 37 million from the EU Innovation Fund to realise the technology. Renewable hydrogen is no longer conside

Back then, the red brick buildings rose like a lonely wall against the open fields of eastern Lund. Now, the buildings are a hub in the middle of the knowledge highway that links the centre of the city with the research facilities on the outskirts of Brunnshög. We are talking, of course, about the buildings on the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) campus. Architect Klas Anshelm’s red brick buildings ha

Investigating air pollution is not for researchers afraid of heights. One of the fearless is Erik Ahlberg, a combustion physicist at the Faculty of Engineering (LTH). His working days are often spent far above ground – currently on the roof of Malmö Town Hall, where the instruments that capture air particles are located. There are many stairs in the town hall. The last staircase to the top of the

For the first time, the University has investigated the collective climate footprint of the entire organisation. Emissions of greenhouse gases fell sharply during the pandemic, almost exclusively due to the suspension of travel. However, there is still a long way to go to meet the emission targets for 2023 in the sustainability plan. The recent report shows that, in 2018, the University emitted a
