Is there any point in participating in a graduate school? After qualitative interviews with alumni from SWEAH, a scientific publication has now been published, which establishes that interdisciplinary graduate schools can play a crucial role in educating the next generation of researchers. A few questions to the article's first author Catharina Melander, senior lecturer at SWEAH's partner universi

Poverty reduction globally is one of the UN’s primary goals. But how can wealth and economic development be measured in a smart way? Artificial intelligence, AI, and satellite photos are able to give more effective and precise measurements, but will remote sensing technology ever be able to replace time-consuming interview surveys? In rich countries, GDP is the most common measure of a country’s w

A research team at Lund University in Sweden has found that more than four percent of all hospital admissions in southern Sweden are associated with sepsis. It is a significantly underdiagnosed condition that can be likened to an epidemic. Now the European Sepsis Alliance has assigned the researchers with mapping the prevalence of sepsis in the rest of Europe. In 2016, the research team conducted
