More than four out of ten doctoral students experience stress, anxiety and depression. This autumn, the doctoral students’ union will redouble efforts to improve wellbeing and prevent poor mental health. Measures include the establishment of a new role, which will focus on preventing and tackling ill health and will work closely with the doctoral student ombudsman and the occupational health servi

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Research in collaboration with vulnerable groups, and scientist and citizen involvement are some of the ways forward to address the environmental risks that experts believe will have the most impact in the next ten years.

Since the discovery of graphene twenty years ago, physicists have been looking for materials that consist of two-dimensional layers. This study is about a newly emerging family, the transition metal halides. “Transition metal halides are a new class of van der Waals materials that we have identified as an ideal platform for many-body engineering. We are very enthusiastic about this class of materi

We tend to attribute today's zoological menagerie of dog breeds to Victorian gentlemen with a penchant for selective breeding. The truth, however, goes back much further. An international study shows that the rich morphological variety among dogs began to take off 11,000 years ago – long before nineteenth century kennel clubs. Look at the dogs of today: the dainty Chihuahua, which most resembles a

A research team has created artificial animals that over time develop functioning vision from scratch – from simple light sensitivity to the ability to discern objects. This happened despite the fact that the digital creatures weren’t given any instructions. The results show how AI can be used to understand the inner secrets of evolution. Imagine that you are sitting in front of a computer. In the

Last Tuesday, our PhD Candidate Lisa Heldt “nailed” her freshly printed PhD thesis. This traditional “spikning” takes place three weeks and three days before the official defense and it involves the PhD Candidate nailing (att spika in Swedish) their physical thesis to a public board where it can be read and scrutinized by the public before the official defense ceremony. At the same time, the spikn

According to a new study led by Lund University in Sweden, our own planet also has its origins in the same process, a cosmic ocean of millimetre-sized particles that orbited the young sun.

When we cough and speak we launch droplets and if the person launching these droplets is sick from some kind of virus disease, such as COVID19, the droplets can contain viruses. These viruses have been found to be one of the main contributors to the spreading of the pandemic disease. If we can further understand where these droplets end up we can make more effective protective measures during a pa

A unique trove of bone material from the 9,200 year old coastal settlement Norje Sunnansund in Blekinge, Sweden, has revealed that surprisingly sophisticated hunting strategies were used at the time. One key find was that the early Mesolithic humans practiced so-called selective hunting – seemingly in order to maximise gain and preserve the local population of certain species. ”A telling example i

Scientists at Lund University in Sweden have developed a new understanding of how the first blood cells form during human development as they transition from endothelial cells to form blood cells of different types. Using a laboratory model of human stem cell development and by looking at the expression of blood cell and endothelial cell genes in each individual cell, they found a progression from

Covid-19 and the subsequent closure of universities around the world have meant that we all quickly had to learn how to teach remotely. Educators all over the world have gathered experiences and evaluated them, and talk about the present as a "new normal" where both teachers and students expect universities to take advantage of knowledge and skills acquired during the pandemic.

Swapping concrete and asphalt for trees, ponds and green roofs is an example of how cities can be adapted to cope with heavy rain and climate change. But time is running out. For nature-based solutions to have a global impact, we need to act fast, according to researchers. A late summer’s day in August 2014, 100 mm of rain fell over the course of a 24-hour period in the Sofielund area in Malmö. Ba

She grew up in oil-rich Norway, with a father who travelled the world working in the oil sector. Little did Lina Lefstad know that just two decades later she would be a researcher at the forefront of efforts to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and tackle the climate crisis.
