Torsdagen den 15 maj fick vi det sorgliga beskedet att Jessica Blom-Larsson avlidit efter ett hastigt sjukdomsförlopp. Hennes plötsliga bortgång lämnar ett stort tomrum på Statsvetenskapliga institutionen med kollegor och studenter i sorg och saknad. På torsdag den 22 maj kl. 15 och framåt kommer vi att hålla en minnesstund för Jessica. Vi samlas i lunchrummet på fjärde våningen, där det kommer at

I denna studie av Russell Cannon, Dalia Mukhtar-Landgren och Mats Fred undersöks hur framtidens hållbara mobilitet växer fram. Studien tar sin utgångspunkt i vad som görs för att skapa hållbar och integrerad mobilitet och vad dessa praktiska handlingar genererar för typer av aktörsroller och relationer. Där forskning ofta presenterar samverkanssvårigheter mellan förbestämda aktörer och implementer

Europeiska unionen (EU) lyfter ofta fram sig själv som en förespråkare för HBTQ-personers rättigheter och arbetar för jämlikhet oavsett sexuell läggning eller könsidentitet. Men i en nyligen publicerad artikel i ett temanummer av Journal of Common Market Studies, menar forskarstuderande Malte Breiding att detta arbete inte alltid leder till det resultat som är tänkt. Breiding lyfter fram en ovänta

Using micro-engineered soil models, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have investigated the effect of tiny polystyrene particles on bacteria and fungi. While these nanoplastics reduced both bacterial and fungal growth, the fungus actually managed to "clean up" their surroundings, thereby easing the effect of the plastics. “Plastic waste is a huge global problem. Whether carelessly discarded

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

A research group at Lund University has studied how a molecular sensor located in the blood vessel wall, controls how the vessel compensates for high blood pressure. As we age, the sensor deteriorates, which can worsen vascular damage caused by high blood pressure and consequently lead to secondary diseases affecting the heart, brain, or other organs. In mice, the researchers demonstrate that the

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden are investigating a car fuel comprised of a liquid that is converted to hydrogen by a solid catalyst. The used liquid is then emptied from the tank and charged with hydrogen, after which it can be used again in a circular system that is free from greenhouse gas emissions. In two research articles, Lund researchers have demonstrated that the method works, an

International law supports women’s right to breastfeed in the public. However, women report having been subjected to negative responses and judgmental looks when breastfeeding outside the home. This is according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden, based on surveys answered by women living in Sweden, Ireland and Australia. The researchers behind the study say that societies everywhere ne

This is the science behind the unimaginably quick attosecond pulses. The method can “photograph” electrons, giving us new insights into the inner life of atoms, and is the discovery that earned Anne L’Huillier this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics. Electrons move so unbelievably fast that they were long thought to be unobservable. Yet despite the difficulties, many researchers were determined to try

Iryna Tsunovska and Nataliia Kohutyuk from Ukraine are taking home many new insights on how they can contribute to the protection of human rights in their professional roles. They have just completed a training course at Lund University for young policymakers, public servants and civil society workers from selected countries in the Baltic Sea Region/EU Eastern Partnership.

Video games are easy to exploit, and are being used by actors ranging from IS and Hizbollah for recruitment, to Russia, who use it to spread propaganda during the ongoing invasion of Ukraine. This according to a new report from Psychological Defence Research Institute at Lund University in Sweden. Since the 2016 US Presidential election, many democratic governments have paid close attention to how

Using global satellite data, a research team has mapped the tree cover of the world’s protected areas. The study shows that regions with abundant large herbivores in many settings have a more variable tree cover, which is expected to benefit biodiversity overall. Maintaining species-rich and resilient ecosystems is key to preserving biodiversity and mitigating climate change. Here, megafauna – the

Researchers at Lund University, together with colleagues at the NIST Synchrotron Facility in the USA, have mapped on an atomic level what happens in a virus particle when the temperature is raised. "When the temperature rises, the virus's genetic material changes its form and density, becoming more fluid-like, which leads to its rapid injection into the cell," says Alex Evilevitch who led the stud

A man who is exposed to physical pain feels less severe pain if he is subjected to pain by a woman compared with a man, according to new research from Lund University in Sweden. In addition, men experience less pain after surgery when asked about it by a woman than by a man. “This was true despite the fact that the men and women involved in the study were dressed the same and used the same script”

For over 20 years, a research team at Lund University in Sweden has studied the common bluetail damselfly. Females occur in three different colour forms – one with a male-like appearance, something that protects them from mating harassment. In a new study, an international research team found that this genetic colour variation that is shared between several species arose through changes in a speci
