Studying at the School of Industrial Design in Lund is not just about theory – it is also about creativity, making contacts and finding new perspectives. Through study visits, exhibitions and – for master's students – international travels, ideas can grow and networks be built. This year, the students went to Vietnam, and Elias Näsström Nyquist and Erik Skans Mächs share their experiences and insi

A myriad of colours that survived millions of years of evolution have disappeared in a short period of time. The culprit? A bright green, aggressive, and sexually dominant wall lizard that has wiped out several colour variants within its species. Many animal species display clearly defined colour variants, or colour morphs. These are not just superficial differences, but are often linked to differ

Air pollution does not only harm human health. New research shows that birds also experience measurable biological changes after breathing in soot particles from traffic emissions. While the effects of polluted air are well documented in humans, far less is known about how animals with different physiologies respond. A new doctoral thesis from Lund University provides fresh evidence of how vehicle

Abdulhakim Abdi, a researcher at Lund University, has produced new maps of the dominant tree species in southern Sweden using satellite data and machine learning. These have now been published and are available to everyone. The maps – available on the website treespecies.se – provide new insights into Sweden’s forests and can be used to track how they change over time, and how both long-term clima

Anton who has been doing his research at the Department of Economic History recently nailed his dissertation: "Aging, Work, and Family", here at LUSEM. He is preparing his defense for 21 May, but we had a chance to ask him a few questions during these busy days. Anton is practically a local, having grown up in Hörby, just a half hour drive from Lund. He came to the university straight out of highs

The war in Gaza is testing alliances and shaking up politics, both globally and regionally. What does this mean for the West's relationship with the Middle East? How are inter-regional dynamics affected? And what is the impact of the war in Israel? Read an interview with Karin Aggestam, Political Scientist and Director of the Centre for Advanced Middle Eastern Studies. What geopolitical consequenc

Researchers at Lund University have developed a new framework that can lead to the Öresund Link, thanks to the right maintenance at the right time and smart monitoring, having a total lifespan of 200 years. This is twice as long as envisaged when the bridge was inaugurated 25 years ago. The results come from the interdisciplinary research project EXTEND, which is led by Sebastian Thöns and Ivar Bj

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By analysing the growth rings from trees that are several thousand years old, preserved in peat bogs, geologist Johannes Edvardsson is creating a unique timeline of Sweden’s historical climate. The buried time capsules also hold clues that could help us to better understand how our forests will be affected by future c

When staff members at the Faculty of Social Sciences move into Allhelgonaskolan, many will need to get used to new ways of working and adopt a more activity-based approach. The building will also be opened up so that everyone working within the faculty can use one of the floors for various activities, such as meetings. An activity-based office is based on a simple idea: different tasks require dif

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. For the first time, researchers have proposed the hypothesis that animals that live in climate zones at a safe distance from both the poles as well as the tropics have the most to gain from acclimating to changes in climate. The findings contradict previous research in the field. Acclimation means the ability of both

Idag saknas evidens för många av de preventiva metoder som används för att minska förlossningsbristningar. I en randomiserad klinisk studie ledd från Lunds universitet har forskare undersökt om allvarliga bristningar – så kallade sfinkterskador – minskar om den ansvariga barnmorskan får stöd av en kollega under den sista delen av krystskedet.

Parkinson’s disease, a condition whose complications worsen as the years go by, can mean that getting older becomes particularly challenging. How can life be made easier for these individuals, so that they can continue to be active and participate in society? This is the aim of a multi-year study that examines the interplay between health and home among people ageing with Parkinson’s disease. Sinc
