Risken för fusk oroade både personal och studenter när kunskapsprov i våras skrevs hemma. Men resultat tyder på att oron var obefogad. Anpassningar för hemmiljön följer nu med när proven flyttar tillbaka till salarna. Hämtad från MedFaks tidigare QPS-blogg. Publiceringsdatum: 2020-09-08 | Författare: Teresa Lindstedt I mitten av mars kom covidbeslutet om att examinationer i sal inte längre var til
Alla partiklar som når atmosfären leder till olika kemiska reaktioner. Partiklar kommer dels från naturliga källor som vulkanutbrott och skogsbränder, dels från luftföroreningar och utsläpp. Aerosolforskaren Johan Friberg studerar partiklar på höga höjder. Han befarar att det ökade antalet skogsbränder globalt kan ha stor påverkan på ozonlagret. – Jag studerar luften som ligger i stratosfären och

In our recent study in Nature Communications, we employed cutting-edge proteomics to explore changes in blood plasma proteins during early HIV-1 infection. The results advance our understanding of early host responses and highlight mechanisms that influence viral control and disease progression.The Questions We AskedHIV-1 continues to challenge global health, especially in sub-Saharan Africa where

Thursday 20 May Morten is giving a CMES Research Seminar on the topic: What is so Sectarian about Sectarian Politics? Identity Politics and Authoritarianism in a New Middle East. 1. How has sectarian politics been debated before, during and after the Arab Revolts? The public debate on sectarianism easily leaves the impression that this is a very recent issue emerging in the wake of the Arab rev

In a major study of hereditary breast cancer, a global network of researchers (including some from Lund University) has identified over 350 faults in DNA that increase an individual’s risk of developing the disease. The researchers believe that these faults can affect as many as 190 genes. Published in Nature Genetics, a scientific journal, the results are said to be the thus far most comprehensiv

A couple of weeks have passed since our symposium: Conducting research in interdisciplinary teams. On the 21 of October, we had the great pleasure of welcoming both Martin Cloonan and Britta Padberg, two of our external evaluators, back to Lund. And both were kind enough to speak at the Symposium. Martin Cloonan led with taking the audience back to May 2024 and the work the external evaluators did

There is no doubt that retailing is undergoing a significant structural transformation. During the last decade or so, many stores have closed. Yet, at the same time, online retailers are opening physical stores and showrooms and many long-established retailers are investing in new and innovative store formats. This suggests that the physical store is not ‘dead’ but that its role and function is ch

In a recent paper, Fredrik N G Andersson explores the connection between economic inequality and the environment. He discovers that the relationship is complex, varying by time, location, and the specific environmental indicator. The most pronounced correlation is found between income inequality and energy use, which subsequently impacts greenhouse gas emissions. Structural shifts in the consumpti

By changing from action-based to result-based environmental payment, farmers are financially encouraged to implement conservation measures, such as buffer strips and organic farming, where they are most beneficial for the environment and not, as today, where they least disrupt the production. This according to William Sidemo Holm, who recently defended his dissertation on biodiversity and ecosyste
What are AI writing tools and how do they affect our assessments? Three main options for considering AI writing tools in assessment are: 1. to ban their use, 2. to assume that they may be used, and set tasks which incorporate them or 3. require them to be used – to fully incorporate the tools in the assessment.

When physical geographer Daniel Metcalfe explains what he does in the simplest possible way, he says he examines holes in leaves. However, the project is far more sophisticated than that, and could lead to a better way of caring for the forests of the world in the future.
