Photo by Markus Spiske on Unsplash The pandemic has made us test alternatives to our traditional exam methods, alternatives that work digitally and on remote. Some of these alternatives are worth keeping also when we head back to traditional, on campus, teaching. One thing we have learned the past years is that remote surveillance is problematic (no guarantee it works 100%) and limiting students’

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have used virtual reality and 3D eye-tracking technology to examine what drew the attention of the visitors when entering the stunning environment of an ancient Roman house. The team recreated the House of Greek Epigrams in 3D and tracked the gaze of study participants as they viewed the home. Unlike today, Roman houses were not a place of refuge from work.

Insekters DNA går att fånga in och upptäcka via luften. Det visar forskning från Lunds universitet. Tekniken, som är ny på insektsområdet, kan få stor betydelse för att kartlägga biologisk mångfald framöver och väntas komplettera den traditionella metoden, att samla in insekter med fällor.

Runt 80 procent av dem som har Downs syndrom utvecklar Alzheimers sjukdom, ofta redan 40-50-årsåldern. Nu visar en svensk-amerikansk studie, ledd från Lunds universitet, att ett enkelt blodprov med stor säkerhet kan upptäcka Alzheimers sjukdom hos personer med Downs syndrom. Fynden är viktiga av flera skäl, inte minst möjligheten att ställa korrekt diagnos utan komplicerade ingrepp. Studien är nyl

Att anställa en barnflicka eller au pair har blivit ett vanligare sätt för barnfamiljer att få vardagen att gå ihop och se till att jämställdheten mellan föräldrarna ökar.
