Transistors that can change properties are important elements in the development of tomorrow’s semiconductors. With standard transistors approaching the limit for how small they can be, having more functions on the same number of units becomes increasingly important in enabling the development of small, energy-efficient circuits for improved memory and more powerful computers. Researchers at Lund

As part of current efforts to work towards sustainable development, find solutions to curb greenhouse gas emissions, and adapt cities to the effects of climate change, such as floods and extreme heat, there are high hopes that nature-based solutions (NBS) can support the transformation needed. Based on the knowledge that implementation of NBS is still emerging and constrained by various barriers,

Last year, the Disciplinary Board at Lund University found 64 students guilty. The most common form of cheating is plagiarism.  “It is important to report it”, says Maria Bangura director of studies at the School of Social Work. “Departments have a great responsibility to ensure that students have the required skills when they head out and start working with people in difficult situations. It is s

Physical geographer Lina Eklund is tracking the destruction of Gaza week by week using satellite images. Her analyses could be significant if, once the fighting between Israel and Hamas is over, questions of possible war crimes are raised at the International Court of Justice in The Hague.

In a large hall on Margaretavägen in Lund, next to LDC, the air is full of the hum of computers. The supercomputers Alarik, Erik and Platon – the most powerful in southern Sweden – are busy computing complex problems that Lund University researchers are not able to solve on their own. At the moment, a simulation of a future MAX IV beamline is underway, alongside calculations in astrophysics and da

In Chichigalpa, Nicaragua, almost half of all male deaths are attributable to a mysterious kidney disease. In El Salvador, it the second most common cause of death among men. In Sri Lanka, it is believed to have caused about 25 000 deaths over the past decade. Working in heat is a common factor, so the problem is expected to increase along with global warming. The condition in question is the myst

Varje vår, strax efter fullmåne, släpper korallerna i Stora barriärrevet ägg och spermier, samtidigt. Ett fenomen så spektakulärt att det syns från rymden. Forskare tror att månens ljus signalerar till korallerna att det är dags. En ny studie i Proceedings of the Royal Society B visar att månljuset även påverkar däggdjurens aktivitet i mörka tropiska skogar. Bilder från kamerafällor avslöjar att s
