This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. An international study led from Lund University in Sweden shows that 30 per cent of the energy in a certain type of light-absorbing iron molecule disappears in a previously unknown manner. By closing this loophole, the researchers hope to contribute to the development of more efficient solar cells using this iron-base

In 2022, Sweden became the first country in the world to allow body checking in women's ice hockey. Major hockey nations are now following Lund University's research on the consequences of tougher plays on the ice. A first study shows that almost nine out of ten players in the Swedish women's hockey league are in favour of body checking – regardless of their own size. “We found that interesting. T

It has been a year ago since bacteria from war-wounded at hospitals in Ukraine were analysed. The study, which attracted a lot of attention, showed that some of the bacteria types had total resistance to antibiotics. Now, the same researchers have examined the infectiousness of the bacteria. "The bacterium 'Klebsiella pneumoniae', which is resistant to all antibiotics, is also particularly aggress

This study from the Netherlands examined how the initial healthcare contacts for individuals with suspected or confirmed osteoarthritis were affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. The results showed significant differences in the number of visits for both musculoskeletal conditions in general and osteoarthritis in particular. As known, the pandemic had a substantial impact on the entire healthcare cha

”Research has shown that the weight of the tariffs imposed by the last Trump administration were mainly carried by US importers and consumers. None of the tariff revenue actually came from abroad,” says Maria Persson, associate professor in Economics at LUSEM. Maria shares a short anecdote about how tariffs on washing machines led to an increase in their prices by up to 225% of the tariff, but not

All particles that reach the atmosphere cause different chemical reactions. Particles come partly from natural sources such as volcanic eruptions and forest fires, and partly from pollution and emissions. Aerosol researcher Johan Friberg studies particles at high altitudes. He fears that the global increase in forest fires could have a significant impact on the ozone layer. “I study the air in the

With each day that passes, I become more impressed by this organisation. In the early spring, we came out of the pandemic (well, not completely, but there was at least a loosening of restrictions that were paralysing society) to be met by a new uncertainty, which since then has unsettled us and caused anxiety – Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Just as when the pandemic struck, Lund University showed
