The Research and Innovation Bill of December 2024 promised substantial new funding through a number of targeted calls for applications. At the same time, it was also decided that new core funding for research would be allocated to universities based on indicators, external grants received and the number of highly cited publications per institution. We are now beginning to see some of the results a

During his stay, Professor Detlef F. Sprinz focused on collaboration on the project LiMa – A Liquid Market for Forest Carbon. The project’s goal is to elucidate whether forest carbon can be a major component in the transition towards a greenhouse gas future where net emissions approach zero. Professor Detlef F. Sprinz is a leading expert on climate governance from the Potsdam Institute for Climate

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

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,

Where, how often, and how much it is going to rain or snow in the future is difficult to predict. Anders Ahlström studies the importance of precipitation for ecosystems on Earth – and contributes with new knowledge in a complex and fraught area. Across the world, researchers are in agreement on future warming patterns. However, future precipitation is more difficult to predict, and climate models

In connection with our efforts towards internationalization, we have had the opportunity to welcome a guest doctoral student within the tourism field to share his research and learn from ours. This is his experience after a few months with us in Helsingborg and Sweden. Say hello to Jordi Vegas-Macias. Tell us about your research!– My name is Jordi Vegas-Macias, and I am a PhD Fellow at Roskilde Un

By reprogramming tumour cells to become the body’s defenders, Filipe Pereira and his colleagues hope to improve current cancer treatments. Right now, some of the immune system’s most important players, the dendritic cells, are patrolling your body in search of foreign substances. If they find something suspicious, they break it down into smaller pieces, called antigens, which are presented to the

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Vice-Chancellor Torbjörn von Schantz is convinced that leadership at the University is a momentous question. “If we are perceived as being incapable of making uncomfortable decisions, there is a risk that we will see the same changes here as in other places such as Denmark – that collegial leadership is replaced by pu

It is not just the environment and the economy that are threatened by a warmer climate, but also culture and traditions around the word. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden and the University of Queensland in Australia have mapped what little is known about how climate change is eroding local knowledge and cultural heritage. “We risk losing the memory of Indigenous people’s ways of life witho

For many years, a bottleneck in technological development has been how to get processors and memories to work faster together. Now, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have presented a new solution integrating a memory cell with a processor, which enables much faster calculations, as they happen in the memory circuit itself. In an article in Nature Electronics, the researchers present a new c

A new research project led by LUCSUS will examine immobility as an adaptation strategy. Through a novel research approach, and field work in different areas affected by sea level rise and erosion, it will shed light on the communities who are unable – or unwilling – to move despite negative effects on their environment. Average sea levels have swelled about 23 cm since 1880, with about 7 cm in the

In a recently published review article from Lund University researchers have analysed the incidence of caesarean sections in different European countries. The results show that private hospitals in several countries have a higher proportion of caesarean sections than public hospitals, even among women in low-risk groups. The caesarean section rate varied from around 17 per cent in northern Europe
