In times when the majority of students need to take exams in an online environment, there are many teachers who wish to monitor the exam via camera surveillance in Zoom. There are many different ways to handle this, Karin Bergman from the department of economics has written about how she approaches this.

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered a new method to treat human herpes viruses. The new broad-spectrum method targets physical properties in the genome of the virus rather than viral proteins, which have previously been targeted. The treatment consists of new molecules that penetrate the protein shell of the virus and prevent genes from leaving the virus to infect the cell. It

Astronomers can use supercomputers to simulate the formation of galaxies from the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago to the present day. But there are a number of sources of error. An international research team, led by researchers in Lund, has spent a hundred million computer hours over eight years trying to correct these. The last decade has seen major advances in computer simulations that can real

Identical twins share the same DNA, but one twin can suffer from type 2 diabetes while the other twin does not develop the disease. A study led by Lund University in Sweden has now discovered that there are differences in gene activity in twins where only one sibling had developed the disease. The researchers’ discovery could contribute to the development of new treatment methods. “Identical twins

Have you made adjustments to your garden to make it more welcoming for pollinators? If so, you have probably made a valuable contribution, according to a new study from Lund University. The researchers evaluated the national ‘Operation: Save the Bees’ campaign, and their results indicate that what private individuals do in their gardens really can make a positive difference. The fact that pollinat

Israel is in shock. The most basic task of a country's defence forces is to guard and protect its borders. Yet the Israeli army was caught completely off guard when thousands of terrorists entered the country to murder and take hostages.

Unfair, ineffective, and inefficient. These are some of the moral objections to increasing fuel prices in Sweden. A new study from Lund University identifies how social movements are resisting green transition policies through moral reasoning and argues that their concerns must be both recognised and responded to, in order to achieve a low-carbon future. – If politicians want different climate pol

As 2025 gets under way, the University, and I dare say the whole higher education sector, has got off to a flying start. The reason for this flying start is, of course, the Research and Innovation Bill that was presented just before Christmas and has since been analysed from all angles. The analysis will continue, as the parts that are still unclear take shape in the Spring Budget or in new direct

A research team led by Lund University has developed an AI tool that traces back the most recent places you have been to. The tool acts like a satellite navigation system, but instead of guiding you to your hotel, it identifies the geographical source of microorganisms. This means you can use bacteria to determine whether someone has just been to the beach, got off the train in the city centre or

Hani Alsafadi defended his Ph.D. thesis on the 13th of February, 2023. With a longstanding interest in biomedical research and a passion for better understanding one of the least regenerative organs in the body, the lung, he has spent the past four years helping to uncover some of the mechanisms that may drive a lung disease currently without a cure, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
