Twenty University staff members participated as test cyclists on the super cycle path between Södra Sandby and Lund over a six-week period in September and October. The results exceeded expectations and most of the test cyclists who had not commuted by bike before improved their fitness and sleep. Are you thinking about starting to cycle to work in the spring? If so, you may be inspired by a proje

In Sweden, around 1,000 people have the diagnosis and several thousand live with the risk of getting the disease. Even more people have a connection to the disease as its symptoms also affect those close to the patient to a high degree. The disease leads to premature death and there are no treatments that

I den långvariga konflikten i Israel och Palestina är det de oskyldiga civila som betalar det högsta priset. Oavsett vad den andra sidan gjort ska den internationella humanitära rätten alltid upprätthållas. Det understryker folkrättsforskaren Alberto Rinaldi. Hamas attack mot Israel den 7 oktober var startskottet för det pågående och senaste kriget som krävt tusentals liv. På tre veckor har det dö

Ny teknik kan underlätta äldre personers aktivitet, men då måste de involveras i teknikutvecklingen. Det framgår i en ny avhandling av William Son Galanza, SWEAH-doktorand i forskargruppen Tillämpad gerontologi i Lund, som har tagit fram en AI-modell som kan kategorisera äldres vardagsaktiviteter. Den äldre befolkningen växer och teknikanvändningen ökar. – Teknik bidrar till bättre livskvalitet om

I en observationsstudie från Lunds universitet är resultaten tydliga: fram till två års ålder ser en mer fiberrik mat ut att minska risken för celiaki, glutenintolerans. Särskilt tydlig koppling sågs när barn hade ätit fiberrik mat före ett års ålder. – Det är första gången förekomsten av celiaki studeras utifrån fibrer i barns kost.
