To distinguish between education and research as early as the allocation stage of basic government funding does not benefit their intertwining. Nor is it helpful that only research counts if you want to have a good career. “Good teaching initiatives are to be rewarded and teaching should be well-regarded” according to the new pro vice-chancellors Ann-Kristin Wallengren and Per Mickwitz.

Singing can be a real health boost. Song involves your emotions, thoughts and body; the feelgood hormone oxytocin surges and the stress hormone cortisol declines. Singing accompanies us from the cradle to the grave, and binds us together as human beings. But what do kids sing in school, how much, and in what way? David Johnson, researcher at the Malmö Academy of Music, investigates this in his the

För första gången har forskare kopplat specifika defekter i spermier till graviditetskomplikationer och negativ effekt på barnets hälsa. Studien från Lunds universitet visar att DNA-skador på pappans spermier fördubblar risken för havandeskapsförgiftning för kvinnor som blivit gravida genom IVF. Dessutom ökar risken för barnet att födas för tidigt. Ungefär 20–30 procent av alla barn som föds med h

What are AI writing tools and how do they affect our assessments? Three main options for considering AI writing tools in assessment are: 1. to ban their use, 2. to assume that they may be used, and set tasks which incorporate them or 3. require them to be used – to fully incorporate the tools in the assessment.

En observationsstudie från Lunds universitet som undersökt sockerkonsumtion, har fått stor nationell och internationell uppmärksamhet. Studien visar att sötade drycker har större negativ inverkan på hälsan än andra sockerkällor. De ökade signifikant risken för ischemisk stroke, hjärtsvikt, förmaksflimmer och bråck på bukens kroppspulsåder. Av de 70 000 svenskar som deltog i hälsostudien, blev 26 0

Researchers at Lund University are developing a new type of gene therapy that reprograms cancer cells within tumors into immune cells that can help the immune system fight cancer. Their approach, now published in the journal Science, could lead to more effective treatments for hard-to-treat cancers. Cancer is known for its ability to hide from the immune system, making it tough to fight. But what
