Meet Ivanna Read: the Master's student in Strategic Communication who is putting Lund University on the map as a blogger on Studyinsweden.se. In addition to being a high achiever academically, she is also the University's latest global ambassador - on 8 May she will be named as Lund University's Global Swede at a ceremony at the Ministry for Foreign Affairs in Stockholm. For the eighth successive

Last year, we had several opportunities to engage with Amanda Sjögren’s work during her time as a PhD student at the Unit for Clinical Epidemiology in Orthopedics at Lund University. For those who need a reminder of what Amanda does, the previous parts can be read here, or by scrolling to the bottom of the page. In short, Amanda focuses on knee osteoarthritis at the molecular level during her PhD.

Food researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered that consuming small amounts of chromium mixed with certain amino acids before eating is healthy. Why? Well, this mixture diluted in water suppresses the blood sugar spike that occurs when we eat. Now, they are hoping that the drink – which tastes like ordinary mineral water – will be able to compete with soft drinks and flavoured water

The dream of finding the “diabetes gene” is dead. However, partly thanks to Leif Groop – professor and multiple award recipient for his ground-breaking research – we will look at type 2 diabetes in a whole new way in the future. He is now retiring, and in an interview with diabetesportalen.se he looks back on his eventful career in research. The study that since 2006 has been the central hub of th

A researcher from Lund University in Sweden has managed to install a huge curtain in a remote cloud forest in South America. The aim is to study how these valuable forests are affected if clouds are elevated due to global warming. The world’s cloud forests are facing the threat of rapid climate change, as global warming may lead to clouds being pushed higher up in the sky. If the lowest level of c

Twenty years ago, Anne L’Huillier was supervisor to doctoral student Per Eng-Johnsson. Today he is a professor of atomic, molecular and optical physics, director of the Lund Laser Centre and one of the Nobel Laureate’s closest collaborators. “She makes everyone feel involved. She sees and includes everyone and is completely unpretentious,” he says. When the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announ

In late May–early June, Lund University will hold a Nobel Symposium in Physics and Chemistry where newly discovered super-heavy elements will be discussed. The possibility for a Nobel Prize looms on the horizon, but the road ahead is not straightforward and competition between countries and researchers is fierce.

Insects have difficulties handling the higher temperatures brought on by climate change, and might risk overheating. The ability to reproduce is also strongly affected by rising temperatures, even in northern areas of the world, according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden. Insects cannot regulate their own body temperature, which is instead strongly influenced by the temperature in the

Förutom minnessvårigheter och andra kognitiva symptom lider de flesta som drabbas av Alzheimers sjukdom också av psykiska besvär. Länge har det varit oklart om dessa uppstår på grund av vävnadsförändringarna i hjärnan, eller om de utgör psykologiska reaktioner till följd av de kognitiva symptomen. En studie vid Lunds universitet har gett nya insikter om de psykiska symptomens uppkomst vid Alzheime

Under pandemins zoom-möten har vi sett många variationer i hur mötesdeltagarna riggar sin hemmastudio. Men hur gör politiska ledare och toppdiplomater för att visa sin status? Elsa Hedling, som forskar om diplomatins digitalisering, har gjort en studie över hur internationella makthavare arbetar med sin framtoning på skärmen. När världens ledare träffas finns i vanliga fall ett strängt protokoll d

Sverige och Danmark är bland de länder i världen med högst förekomst av typ 1-diabetes i relation till invånarantal. Här finns också en lång tradition av forskning om sjukdomen. DiaUnion är ett samarbete mellan forskare och life science-företag i Öresundsregionen och projektet finansieras av bland annat EU. I DiaUnion går länderna samman i kampen mot typ 1-diabetes och relaterade autoimmuna sjukdo

The expression “Sweden’s green gold” has a new meaning. Forests are now not only to provide timber and paper – but also save the climate. Chemical engineering researcher Christian Hulteberg has managed to transform a residual product from pulp manufacturing into a liquid that is chemically identical to petrol. The plan is to have Swedish forest fuel available at service stations by 2021. “This is

When you take a dip in a Swedish lake, it is not unusual to find you cannot see the lake bottom. Lake water coloured brown by organic material can be an inconvenience for swimming tourists, but mainly causes problems for the ecosystem and drinking water. Focusing on Lake Bolmen, researchers, public authorities and local organisations are now joining forces in a research project to find methods tha
