Broke and depressed – that’s how doctoral students risk ending up if they don’t complete their studies in time. The Doctoral Student Ombudsman, Aleksandra Popvic, says supervisors and the University must take more responsibility for the structure of the thesis work, a view supported by a survey conducted by the Swedish Union of Civil Servants (ST). More than 45 percent of responses from doctoral s

Det tar lång tid, upp till flera decennier, innan fördelarna med ekologisk odling slår igenom fullt ut på mark som tidigare brukats konventionellt, visar en ny studie från Lunds universitet. Efter trettio år hade växtarterna runtomkring den odlade grödan fördubblats på gårdar med ekologisk odling jämfört med på konventionella gårdar. Det är välkänt att ekologiskt jordbruk gynnar biologisk mångfald

Algblomning gillar vi inte. Men i avloppsvattnet kan de små snabbgroende organismerna göra susen. Det tror forskaren Jing Li som testar hur olika slags alger kan rena avloppsvattnet. ”Metoden kan bli både billigare och miljövänligare än dagens metoder” säger hon. Dessutom kan algerna sedan kanske bli bränsle eller gödningsmedel – eller rentav mat! Avloppsvatten, vare sig det kommer från köks- elle

GAD-diabetesvaccinet, inflammationshämmande medlet ibuprofen och D-vitamin ska testas för att se om det kan bevara korppens egen insulinproduktion hos barn som nyligen insjuknat i typ 1 diabetes. De första resultaten från den forskarinitierade läkemedelsstudien kommer att kunna presenteras i början av 2015. Studien, DIABGAD-1, som är den första i sitt slag, kombinerar behandling med diabetesvaccin

En stor internationell studie (BLING III) ska undersöka bästa sättet att ge en viss antibiotika till svårt infektionssjuka i intensivvården. Målet är att få evidens för optimerad antibiotikabehandling och därigenom minska dödstalen till följd av sepsis. Totalt ska studien omfatta 7000 patienter och nu har de första patienterna inkluderats i den svenska delen av studien. – I sitt upplägg är det en

Populismen har fått kraftig vind i seglen de senaste decennierna. I alla delar av världen ser vi framgångar för både höger- och vänsterrörelser med populistiska diskurser, och inte minst på den europeiska kontinenten. På Ekonomihögskolan i Lund anordnades den 21 november ett internationellt symposium, med finansiering från Centrum för europaforskning, för att analysera och diskutera populismens in

Work on Lund University’s establishment in Science Village has continued this year, but with a new focus. At the end of 2024, the boards of LTH and the Faculty of Science decided not to proceed with scenario 5 – a co-location of the Department of Physics and the Department of Chemistry in the area – due to cost considerations and the challenges of running education across two sites.

The climate cannot handle the amount of animals we eat. There needs to be a protein shift, according to researcher Karolina Östbring who is involved in the Sustainability Week. Her vision is to create a platform for research on vegetable proteins at LU. Karolina Östberg  Photo: Kennet Ruona.

Research is like solving a puzzle, some might say. One of the biggest of these is the body’s proteins – with over 90,000 pieces to keep track of. LUM meets three professors of protein to understand what makes the subject so fascinating and how they are working to understand when proteins go wrong in the body. If a research field were to be evaluated based on the number of Nobel Prizes it has been
