Ditt namn på en ytterdörr. En självklarhet för oss allra flesta, men långt ifrån en verklighet för alla. I Sverige finns idag 33 000 hemlösa och siffran är stigande. För att bryta den negativa spiralen vill forskare vid Socialhögskolan ändra hemlöshetspolitiken med att satsa än mer på det lyckade projektet Bostad först. Att kunna stänga dörren om sig och kalla något sitt eget är grundtanken i att

1. Du fyller 60 nästa år. Har du ålderskris? – Nej, jag börjar förlika mig med att jag ska bli 60. Funderar mest på om jag ska ha fest eller inte. Däremot tänker jag en del på karriären och hur länge jag kan vara borta från min egen forskning. Väntar jag för länge är det svårt att komma tillbaka och identiteten som forskare är central för mig. 2. Hur är det att vara rektor? – Det är roligt på ett

The research areas remain the same, but our perspective on them has changed. This is how consumption researchers Carys Egan-Wyer and Emma Samsioe describe the development in retail research over the past ten years. “In one of our recent reports, we call it 'Retail as unusual.' There is no longer a normal state in trade, no 'Business as usual.' Everything has become more uncertain,” says Carys Egan

Cancer cells are the ultimate sugar addicts, gobbling up glucose to fuel their growth and spread. What if we could starve them of their favorite food? A recent study in Blood Advances by Lund University researchers describes a new method to combat leukemia by disrupting the energy-making machinery of cancer cells, cutting off their dual energy supply. Despite advancements in treatment, acute myelo
