En samlad utbildningswebb har under hösten gått in i en ny fas. Nu implementeras stegvis nya roller och arbetssätt tillsammans med såväl gemensam förvaltning som fakulteter och institutioner. Samtidigt utvärderar och definierar projektet fortsatt design och teknik för den kommande gemensamma utbildningswebben vid Lunds universitet. Målet med den nya utbildningswebben är att bidra till bättre servi
Jonna Bornemark är en av Sveriges mest inflytelserika samtida filosofer. Hon har bidragit till att ompröva vår syn på etik, omdöme och människosyn inom medicin och hälso- och sjukvården. Nu är det är helt rätt tid att vara filosof. Vi befinner oss mitt i en samhällelig kris, där bland annat miljö- och migrationsfrågor gör de existensiella frågorna viktigare än någonsin. – Filosofiska frågor är in

I en forskningsstudie vid Lunds universitet och folktandvården i Skåne, framkommer att personer med fibromyalgi har sämre munhälsa än normalbefolkningen. Särskilt tydligt är det hos yngre personer. De har även en överrepresentation av smak- och doftallergier kopplade till munnens slemhinnor. Fibromyalgi är en kronisk smärtsjukdom som främst drabbar kvinnor och kännetecknas av utbredd värk, trötthe

Recently published findings from Lund University in Sweden challenge a common assumption about the causes of fatigue in teenage girls. The researchers found no link between iron deficiency and fatigue, even though iron deficiency was very common in the group. By contrast, heavy periods, skipping meals and daily nicotine use were linked to higher levels of self-reported tiredness in the group. We h

Can games serve as a method for spreading knowledge and inspiring action? If you ask Karl Sterner Isaksson and Jagdeep Singh, the answer is an obvious yes! They are both currently working on games about biodiversity and food waste, respectively, and they see games as a way to transform complex environmental challenges into something understandable, engaging – and fun!

What makes a truly great teacher? This year’s five teachers at LTH who have been recognized for their pedagogical excellence have different answers, experiences, and teaching methods. What they have in common is their strong commitment to student learning – and a desire to continue improving their teaching. Since 2001, faculty teachers at LTH have been able to earn recognition in the field of peda

What obstacles stand in the way of user-centred working, and what is needed to succeed? Many organisations want to adopt a user-centred approach, but a new doctoral thesis shows that success is elusive when conflicting demands and a lack of organisational support throw a spanner in the works. Today, there is considerable pressure on organisations to work in a user-centred way. There is talk of use

Work is slowly starting back up again after a long and much-needed break. Before I turn my attention to what lies ahead, I would like to begin by looking back briefly. At the end of last autumn, I travelled to Chicago, partly to visit my son, who is an exchange student at Illinois Institute of Technology, and partly to visit the University of Chicago to explore potential collaborations.

Have you ever wondered what it takes to grow a brain in a petri dish or how scientists use viruses to fight genetic diseases? These are just some of the fascinating topics explored on UniStem Day 2023 at Lund Stem Cell Center in Sweden. On 10 March 2023, more than 220 high school students from across Sweden's southern Skåne region arrived at Lund Stem Cell Center at Lund University for a day of le

In a recently published review article from Lund University researchers have analysed the incidence of caesarean sections in different European countries. The results show that private hospitals in several countries have a higher proportion of caesarean sections than public hospitals, even among women in low-risk groups. The caesarean section rate varied from around 17 per cent in northern Europe

Bone and skeletal injuries cause extensive and long-term functional impairments worldwide. In a new study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show how a cell-free cartilage structure can safely guide bone repair without triggering strong immune responses. The transplant has been successfully tested in animal models, and the next step is to evaluate the tissue engineering approach in humans.

For the first time, researchers have identified a previously unrecognized metabolic defence mechanism in aggressive brain tumours: a sugar-rich shield that surrounds tumour cells and protects them against a particularly destructive form of cell death. Aggressive brain tumours grow in an extreme environment characterised by oxygen and nutrient deficiencies, low pH and chronic cellular stress. Insid
