Hur gör förlossningsläkare när de fattar beslut under akuta situationer och hur skapar de mening av all den information som de får till sig? Gabriel Raoust, doktorand vid Lunds universitet och själv förlossningsläkare vid Skånes universitetssjukhus, har lett ett samarbetsprojekt där man undersökt detta närmre i en djupintervjustudie. Studien använde ett narrativt grepp där deltagarna valde ut kons

Edouard Berrocal, forskare i förbränningsfysik vid LTH, har fått ett av de mest prestigefyllda utmärkelserna unga forskare kan få; ERC Starting Grant. För prissumman på 1,5 miljoner euro kommer han under närmaste femårsperiod utröna vad som händer i förbränningens avgörande födelseögonblick, då bränsle-vätskan sprutas in i kammaren och förvandlas till ånga. På sikt kan forskningen leda till miljöv

Varför har du inte tagit din medicin? Glömt bort att göra det? Eller struntat i det? Båda anledningarna är vanliga, särskilt om du inte förrän det är för sent på ett negativt sätt känner av det du behandlas för. Ett exempel är behandlingen av blodfettsrubbningar som bevisligen räddar liv. Och diabetiker, både typ 2 och typ 1, är inte bättre än andra. Vårdprofessionen kallar det för följsamhet och

Sometimes healthcare professionals treat patients with opioids such as morphine to relieve symptoms, but there has been a lack of evidence as to whether this helps with severe chronic breathlessness. A randomised Phase 3 study conducted by Swedish and Australian researchers now finds that morphine does not reduce worst breathlessness. The study is published in JAMA. Long term shortness of breath i

What kind of an image of yourself do you present on social media? And why? Carys Egan-Wyer, researcher in Consumer Culture, believes that in some ways leisure time has become a type of work.

Ökad livslängd och en större andel äldre i Sverige och andra länder leder också till en ökad användning av läkemedel. En ny avhandling från Lunds universitet belyser för första gången på ett mer omfattande vis nyttan av att redan i primärvården jobba strukturerat med äldres läkemedelsintag. Trots olika initiativ för att minska felaktig och onödig förskrivning av läkemedel till äldre i Sverige ökar

The University finds itself in a time of paradoxes. At the same time as the EU, via its framework programmes, works for openness and mobility for researchers and students, there are increasing nationalistic and protectionist trends. In addition, the trust and hope that society has in research as a solution for global challenges is being unsettled by the spread of knowledge relativism. This is the
