Stroke kan komma att orsaka nära 10 miljoner dödsfall årligen år 2050 och kosta upp till 2 biljoner dollar. Det varnar nu en forskarkommission för i en rapport som presenteras i Lancet Neurology. Allra hårdast drabbas låg- och medelinkomstländer. – Den viktigaste slutsatsen är att det finns stora möjligheter att vända trenden, säger Bo Norrving, forskare och läkare och en av dem som startat upp oc

Det nya forskningsprojektet ”Socioekonomisk segregation – betydelsen av grannskap, skolor och policy över livscykeln” ska skapa en forskningsmiljö med hälsoekonomer, utbildnings- och arbetsmarknadsekonomer, geografer och demografer. Vi pratade med projektledaren Martin Dribe, professor i ekonomisk historia på Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitetet och föreståndare vid Centrum för ekonomisk demog

Kvant. Ordet dyker upp allt oftare i samtal om framtidens teknologi, säkerhet, medicin och datorer. Samtidigt uppfattas området ofta som både abstrakt och svårtillgängligt. Men vad är egentligen kvantfysik och varför är intresset så stort just nu? – Kvantfysik utvecklades för att beskriva universums allra minsta beståndsdelar. När forskare började studera atomer, elektroner och ljus upptäckte man

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Is it possible to conduct research on type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes and hair loss at the same time? Absolutely, says Pontus Dunér who after many years of secrecy can now lift the lid on and talk about his promising results. The common denominator is a protein that Pontus Dunér and his colleagues have worked on inte

When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, some shopping geographies had difficulties while others proved to be more resilient. Devrim Umut Aslan discusses what we can learn from these resilient places. A global pandemic hit the world, radically changing how shoppers shop and how they move around in cities. Sweden’s handling of the pandemic had been rather ‘relaxed’; it had not enforced any strict lock-downs

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Today’s governance of Swedish higher education institutions is short-sighted, poorly coordinated and much too general and competitive. The separation of direct government funding between education and research has created unnatural boundaries and promoted a culture within academia that underestimates education in rela

The climate issue is one of the biggest global societal challenges of our time. Research on where the climate is heading is an important part of that work, both to monitor the impact of emission reductions agreed between countries worldwide in Paris 2015, but also to be better prepared for the elements of climate change we will not be able to avoid. A climate model developed by researchers from Lu

In recent years, ‘ecosystem services’ has become an increasingly common concept within the research community, as well as in municipalities, public authorities and industry. In simple terms, ecosystem services can be described as the benefits humans gain from nature’s ecosystems, for example regarding the food we eat, the air we breathe, purification of the water we drink, the bioenergy we use to

Contrary to popular belief, Swedish women who have joined IS were not simply passively manipulated by men. A new study from Lund University suggests that it was a strict religious culture, which opposes gender equality, and modern gender roles and norms, that attracted Swedish women to join the Islamic State. On the internet, Swedish IS women propagate Sharia law, gender segregation and a patriarc

For the first time, a research team led by Lund University in Sweden has mapped out exactly what happens when spruce bark beetles use their sense of smell to find trees and partners to reproduce with. The hope is that the results will lead to better pest control and protection of the forest in the future. The Eurasian

Through an interdisciplinary research project in collaboration with industry, a group of researchers hope to identify a more efficient way of assessing the ground ahead of future construction projects. The results of the research might, for example, accelerate the process of modernising the Swedish rail network. On selected sections of the track between Lund and Hässleholm, a research project is u

Many lung patients face a critical shortage of organs for transplantation. To address this challenge, the ‘The Bridge - Lungs for Life’ initiative led by Professor Sandra Lindstedt at the Skåne University Hospital in Lund and Lund University will establish a centralized Danish-Swedish "renovation facility" for damaged lungs – a first-of-its-kind endeavor in Europe.
