Approximately one in five Swedish young adults (18–25) have experienced recurring problems with paying their bills in the past year. The group with recurring payment problems tend to make more unplanned purchases, are less likely to have a social network to discuss their financial problems with, and are less likely to have friends that could help them financially, than those who do not experience

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In a unique experiment, researchers have clocked how long it takes for an electron to be emitted from an atom. The result is 0.000 000 000 000 000 02 seconds, or 20 billionths of a billionth of a second. The researchers’ stopwatch consists of extremely short laser pulses. Hopefully, the results will help to provide ne

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers have now managed to pinpoint what happens when light is absorbed by extremely small nanoclusters of silver atoms. The results may have useful application in the development of biosensors and in imaging. By combining chemistry and nanotechnology, the research community in recent years has developed a kind o

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Almost everything we do – walking, talking, or drinking coffee – is completely dependent on accurate timing when activating many muscles at once. The prevailing theory has been that the exact timing of this type of movement is not voluntarily controlled, and the timing has therefore been assumed to be fully automated

Although not yet decided, we have good reasons to believe that the funding of the 43 Strategic Research Areas (SRAs) including BECC will continue. As a result, we are now preparing for the long-term future, including a new internal structure where Challenged Themes replace the former Clusters with the aim to increase the integration between disciplines. At the BECC 2015 annual meeting, we discusse

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Over the past 50 years, the water in lakes and watercourses has turned increasingly brown. The so-called browning has a negative impact on both drinking water production and ecosystems. If nothing is done, the water is likely to turn even browner – however, there is hope. Supported by a new study, researchers from Lun

The idea behind procurement is to guarantee the right product or service at the right price. But what happens when public procurements are consciously structured to avoid appeals – or are simply discontinued early? Fredrik Tesch-Morawetz’s doctoral thesis in business law examines these issues and has been commended by the Lund University School of Economics and Management as the faculty’s best the
