If you exhale on a clear day in the clean, cold air of the Arctic, you will not see your breath form the cloud we are used to seeing when the temperature drops. The reason for this is that the cloud cannot form without aerosol particles. Moa Sporre, researcher in nuclear physics at Lund University, focuses on how thes

Synchrotron radiation helps vision researcher Emily Baird create three-dimensional images of how insects see the world. In the future, this could lead to sighted drones that navigate through the air like insects, without being remote controlled from the ground. “I enjoy research more than anything, and the most fun part is that I am forced to be creative and make constant progress, says Emily Bair

Economists are obsessed with growth. So says economist Timothée Parrique, who has recently attracted attention for his research into degrowth. He thinks that creativity is missing from economic theory. “Economists stubbornly attempt to solve today’s problems with yesterday’s theories,” he says. Trusting one’s gut instinct can bring rewards. In Timothée Parrique’s case that was certainly true – tod

In order to be able to prescribe the appropriate dose of physical activity to patients, healthcare professionals need to consider a range of individual factors. There is a need to facilitate the assessment of aerobic capacity i. e. maximal oxygen uptake capacity (VO2max), as well as to calculate the intensity of training according to the WHO recommendations for physical activity. Now, researchers

Kompetensportalen, Lucat, Lupin, Lubas and LUCRIS. Those are the names of some of Lund University’s administrative systems. They are now also the names of five new bacteriophages that have recently been discovered in the ponds of Lund University’s Botanical Gardens.

Många av oss har jobbat mer på distans under pandemin än vad vi någonsin drömde om att göra. Informatikforskaren Saonee Sarker har i flera år studerat distansarbete och dess påverkan på livspusslet, men då främst med fokus på IT-världen. I dag ser hon hur den branschens digitala arbete har förflyttats till att omfatta oss alla. Bokhyllorna i Saonee Sarkers ­arbetsrum på Ekonomicentrum i Lund gapar

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har upptäckt en direkt länk mellan den ansamling av protein i vissa nervceller som är typiska för neurodegenerativa sjukdomar, och genregleringen vid Huntingtons sjukdom. Resultaten öppnar för utveckling av nya behandlingsstrategier vid sjukdomar där den grundläggande mekanism som gör att kroppens celler kan bryta ner och återvinna egna beståndsdelar försämras. Denna

Att det är en konst att skriva bra flervalsfrågor är det nog många lärare som håller med om. Flervalsfrågor, på engelska kallade Multiple Choice Questions eller MCQ, är så kallade stängda frågor, där den som svarar får välja bland ett antal givna svarsalternativ istället för att själv formulera ett svar.
