What happens if there is a power cut and the heating stops working for a long period of time? Besides the obvious consequences – that technology doesn’t work and it gets cold – how do we, as a society, prepare for such a crisis? Do we know who is supposed to do what when it happens? And who gets to decide on the crisis plans? There are many different unexpected and sudden events that can happen. A

Vad är det som gör ett universitet till ett universitet? Att det finns utbildning och forskning vid lärosätet är det enkla svaret. Men ett universitet är mycket mer än så och kanske är det som lättast att fånga essensen av det universum som ett universitet utgör när man vid årets slut sammanfattar det gångna året. Det är knivskarpt, det myllrar, det provar, det reflekterar, det utmanar gränser, de

When Quick Bites for Researchers launched in spring 2025, it began as an experiment — an attempt to open up a new and informal channel between researchers and the library’s expertise. One year on, librarians Fredrik Larsson and Anja Zimmerman can look back at an initiative that not only survived its first year, but is now ramping up.“We wanted to find a simple, low-threshold way to support researc

Understanding that others hold different viewpoints from your own is essential for human sociality. Adopting another person’s visual perspective is a complex skill that emerges around the age of two. A new study from Lund University in Sweden, published in Science Advances, suggests that this ability first arose in dinosaurs, at least 60 million years before it appeared in mammals. These findings

During the pandemic, physical summits were replaced by Zoom meetings, and global political leaders had to quickly adjust. How did they visually convey their status in this new world of digital diplomacy? A new study from Lund University in Sweden analysed over 50 photos from the first virtual G20 meeting in 2020.

Det saknas inte initiativ för att bryta det växande sociala utanförskapet i Sverige. Mer oklart är vad som fungerar. Forskningen hittills visar att “eldsjälar” är en nyckel till framgång.
