We should not be afraid to joke about one another’s ethnic background. Used with sensitivity, such jokes can instead help to challenge the stereotypical image of immigrants, according to Lund University sociologist Henriette Frees Esholdt, who has studied humour at a multi-ethnic workplace in Denmark. Henriette Frees Esholdt’s study was carried out in a large organisation in the hospitality sector

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har undersökt samband mellan exponering för PFAS och utveckling av astma. Resultaten visar att bland de barn vars mammor hade mycket hög PFAS-exponering under graviditeten var risken för astma betydligt högre än hos barn vars mammor hade lägre PFAS-exponering. PFAS (per- och polyfluoralkylsubstanser) är en stor grupp av syntetiska ämnen som kan förekomma i många prod

In March 2015, a valuable globe of Mars was stolen from the Astronomy Library. After disappearing without a trace for almost a decade, it suddenly turned up at an antique dealer in Stockholm. The astronomical treasure has finally been returned to Lund. Astronomers have been using globes to visualise moons and planets ever since the 18th century. As telescopes improved in the late 19th century, int

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Alzheimers sjukdom kännetecknas av onormal spridning och ansamling av proteinet tau i hjärnan. En internationell studie visar nu hur tau sprids enligt fyra distinkta mönster som leder till olika symtom med olika prognoser för de drabbade individerna. Studien publiceras i Nature Medicine. – Till skillnad mot hur vi h

Dense urban areas amplify the effects of higher temperatures, due to the phenomenon of heat islands in cities. This makes cities more vulnerable to extreme climate events. Large investments in the electricity network will be necessary to cool us down during heatwaves and keep us warm during cold snaps, according to a new study led by Lund University in Sweden. “Unless we account for extreme climat

The areas of research remain the same, but our perspective on them has changed. This is how consumer researchers Carys Egan-Wyer and Emma Samsioe describe developments in retail research over the past ten years. "In one of our latest reports, we call it “Retail as unusual”. There is no longer a ‘normal’ state in retail, no ‘business as usual’. Everything has become more uncertain,” says Carys Egan

Dealing with heat is about more than implementing technical solutions such as cold rooms, access to water, green areas and communication systems. Equally, if not more, important is to strengthen social networks, reduce income disparities and eliminate social vulnerability. Sustainability researcher Maryam Nastar comments on the heat wave in Canada and North America based on her research on extreme
