Trots stor och bestående viktnedgång minskar inte den psykiska ohälsan bland unga som gjort kirurgiska ingrepp mot övervikt. Däremot ökar fetmaoperationer risken för tidiga alkoholproblem. Det visar världens största långtidsstudie som gjorts bland unga som genomgått viktkirurgi. Studien är gjord vid bland annat Lunds universitet och Karolinska Institutet. Forskarna har studerat psykisk ohälsa – fö

Det är nu några år sedan de första teoretiska artiklarna kom om ”programmatic assessment”. Bakomliggande resonemang är att de studenter som kommer till våra utbildningar sannolikt har förmågan att klara utbildningen och vi borde lägga mer tid på att se till att varje individ utmanas på den nivå man är, för att ständigt säkra utveckling.

Supraledare är material som kan leda elektricitet utan motstånd och används bland annat i elektromagneter, antenner och kraftledningar. Nu har forskare studerat en mångfacetterad supraledare som uppvisar ett så kallat virvelgitter när den utsätts för ett magnetfält. Upptäckten kan komma att revolutionera den tekniska utvecklingen.
