Linnéa Jönsson and Patrik Nilsson were two of the PhD students who seized the opportunity to have a research visit financed by NanoLund last year. This is a support that NanoLundians – PhD students as well as senior scientists – can apply for at any time. “Do it! You have to take the opportunity to do something like this if you get the chance,” says Linnéa Jönsson. As a researcher at NanoLund, you

...Markus Holdo! You just came back from Italy where you've done fieldwork, tell me, what have you done and how did it go? –  Yes, it was very exciting! I'm gathering material for a study on how people in rural areas think about politics and development. It became particularly clear after Brexit that there's a lot we don't understand. For example, it's interesting, and some might say paradoxical,

I guess you can say that it goes up and down, but I would say that IT security is a question that worries me. We must act fast and start by analysing the current situation. We hear almost daily about threats from the surrounding world of intrusion, ransomware attacks* and spying. Lund University is of course no exception regarding these threats and we need to equip ourselves better to withstand th

The aggregation of the protein Amyloid-beta (Abeta) into plaques outside the nerve cells has been recognized in patients with Alzheimer’s disease since 1905. But eliminating the plaques has not helped patients so far. Still, Tomas Roos was recently recruited as a postdoc in our lab. He thinks that Abeta matters, but we may need to focus on the aggregates elsewhere. Earlier this spring, he defended

Arne L Persson vill göra om hela campus till en kolsänka genom att fylla det med träd. Sedan den extremt varma sommaren 2018 ägnar han sitt liv åt att försöka göra vad han kan för att hejda klimatförändringarna. Här skriver han om LU:s klimatarbete, förnybar energi och vår stora förbrukning av IT – som i förlängningen leder till stora utsläpp. Förra året gav jag ut en bok om klimatet med titeln ”F

Opeppad på att karva fram ännu en lykta ur en slemmig pumpa? Som tur är slipper du kämpa med en stenhård rova. Att just pumpan blev Halloweens främsta symbol är faktiskt lite av en historisk slump. Etnologen Katarzyna Herd förklarar varför. 200 ton. Så mycket pumpa fraktades ut från lantbrukaren Leif Nilssons gård i Löderup på Österlen inför fjolårets Halloweenfirande, enligt SVT Nyheter. – Men fa
