Bland innovationsforskare finns en utbredd uppfattning att kunskapsintensiva företag frodas bäst i större städer. Men i takt med att nätet byggts ut och människor blivit bättre på att använda det, minskar städernas försprång. Dessutom har landsbygdens trofasta personal som inte hoppar mellan jobb visat sig vara en konkurrensfördel. Det visar samhällsgeografen Hjalti Nielsen i en ny avhandling. Och

Resultatet av två stora amerikanska studier för nästan 30 år sedan var på många sätt banbrytande. De bevisade att intensiv blodsockerkontroll avsevärt minskade risken för komplikationer. Det var inte så förvånande men att effekten skulle kvarstå flera år var svårt att förklara. Det kunde handla om ett ”metabolt minne”. Uttrycket har sedan dess fått fick stor spridning. Nu vill andra amerikanska fo

It is a catalyst that will modernise the Faculty of Science, both at Brunnshög and Sölvegatan. Dean Sven Lidin may have become “nearsighted, flabby and middle-aged” during his ten years in symbiosis with Science Village, but his future visions are more vital than ever. It is one of those pale September mornings when there is one online meeting after another. But a few minutes after 11:00, the dean
