Export control are regulations used to govern the export of military and dual-use goods—items with both civilian and military applications. While these rules are often associated with industry and defence, it’s increasingly clear that they also affect the research world—especially in fields involving advanced technologies and international collaboration. In some cases, data or research results may

Nature-based solutions offer excellent opportunities to address environmental and social challenges. They can help mitigate climate change and protect biodiversity. However, better governance and funding, complemented by clear political priorities, are needed to scale up such solutions in the Nordic region. This is the finding of a new research report from the Nordic Council of Ministers, in which

Once again, we are now seeing an increase in the spread of infection, in particular in Europe; this week, the Public Health Agency of Sweden announced new recommendations to avoid crowding, among other things. We are still offering on-campus education but everyone is to avoid crowding and large gatherings. We are carefully monitoring the situation and trying to keep the organisation updated on any

Extreme weather events are putting increasing pressure on transport infrastructure, particularly in sparsely populated regions. In a new research project funded by Formas, Associate Professor Pengxiang Zhao will identify effective strategies for improving transport resilience and accessibility in a changing climate. The grant of nearly SEK 4 million is part of Formas' call "Knowledge syntheses for

Researchers have identified the top 12 ways European cities have been able to curb car use. The most effective measure was applying a congestion charge, with the notable case of London, where city traffic dropped by 33% following the change. Most success stories involved both “carrots” to encourage sustainable mobility and “sticks” to restrict cars, according to the study. – Transport is a major s

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Melissa Franklin is a guest professor from Harvard University who compares her environment at Fysicum with the tv-series Friends and Seinfeld.

That life is not fair is hardly news. But that inequalities are at risk of increasing as we seek to improve the health of the population is perhaps unexpected. Health economics is a way of evaluating the potential health benefits of different interventions, setting them against the economic cost and their impact on society. Over two million people in Sweden are currently living with cardiovascular

Engaging students during seminars is a common challenge for higher education teachers. Learning is always the outcome of the students’ activity, and teachers can only facilitate, encourage, hinder or discourage learning (Ambrose et al., 2010). Indeed, a seminar only works if participants are active and come prepared. However, students face different struggles when preparing for seminars. Micol Mie

It is halftime for Vice-chancellor Erik Renström and his team. Three years of his term of office have passed, and three remain. Here in LUM, he sums up the first-half performance, looks ahead and explains how he approaches a job in which everyone wants a bit of his time. Word is that he is always on time to meetings, but almost never arrives early. Heading up the stairs to his office on the second

Extreme weather poses a big threat to birds. Yet there is a lack of both knowledge and methods for measuring its negative effects. In a new study, researchers from Lund University in Sweden have identified knowledge gaps and propose practical tools for analysing the risks to birds. Extreme weather has become increasingly common worldwide, often in the form of combinations of heat and drought. Thes

Dealing with heat is about more than implementing technical solutions such as cold rooms, access to water, green areas and communication systems. Equally, if not more, important is to strengthen social networks, reduce income disparities and eliminate social vulnerability.
