...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,

Diabetes, cardiovascular disease, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease make up the world’s most common diseases. A new biobank at Lund University in Sweden - the largest of its kind - with stem cells from both those affected and healthy individuals, will contribute to an increased understanding of how these diseases arise. “The goal is for researchers to be able to develop new treatments that can p

Blodtrycksmediciner kan göra huden extra lättbränd i solen. En registerstudie vid Lunds universitet visar på en trolig ökad risk för basalcellscancer vid viss blodtrycksmedicinering. Riskökningen är relativt låg, som mest nio procent. – Blodtrycksbehandlingen ska inte avbytas. Men det är bra om läkare informerar om att extra solskydd kan behövas, säger forskaren Johan Kappelin. Han är nybliven dok

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Forskare vid Lunds Universitets Diabetescenter har upptäckt att hälften av den europeiska befolkningen bär på en genetisk variant som ökar risken att drabbas av typ 2-diabetes. Genvarianten styr cellernas bränsletillverkning. Upptäckten har tidigare beskrivits i en kortare text  på diabetesportalen.se (se länk nedan

För studenter är skickliga och pedagogiska lärare avgörande för att kunna ta del av en högkvalitativ utbildning. Det finns många faktorer som påverkar lärarnas förmåga, men en betydelsefull del är vilka möjligheter som finns för högskolepedagogisk kompetensutveckling och vilket värde som sätts vid pedagogiska meriter. I dagsläget ser Lunds universitets student­kårer (LUS) ett flertal utmaningar in

We talked to professor Hervé Corvellec after the 6th International Degrowth Conference took place in Malmoe. "Degrowth is the idea of turning economic development from growth-based into its opposite.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. For a mathematician, the waves of the sea are related to differential equations, and particularly complex ones at that. Mathematical research can help to improve understanding of how waves form and move – which could be useful, for example, in the work to predict dangerous monster waves.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A lot of research on human behaviour is based entirely on words: researchers read, ask questions, send out questionnaires and write reports. But this means they miss a lot of elements concerning sound, sights and people’s interaction with their physical surroundings. Devrim Umut Aslan wants to study consumers’ attitud

Professor Ian Manners, who is also due to be inaugurated as a professor tomorrow, teaches alongside Joel Abdelmoez on the course Political Cinéma. – Why Cinéma and not Cinema? –  The course is called political cinéma to remind us that ‘cinéma’ is both the production and projection of films. In 1895 the Lumière brothers first used the cinématographe motion picture system (a camera, projector, and f

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The University finds itself in a time of paradoxes. At the same time as the EU, via its framework programmes, works for openness and mobility for researchers and students, there are increasing nationalistic and protectionist trends.
