The global coronavirus pandemic has hit the tourism industry hard worldwide. Not only that, but it has exposed a lack of resilience to any type of downturn, according to new research from Lund University in Sweden. While the virus may or may not be temporary, the climate crisis is here to stay - and tourism will have to adapt, says Stefan Gössling, professor of sustainable tourism. Tourism has bee

The most common form of childhood cancer is acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Researchers at Lund University in Sweden, in cooperation with Karolinska Institutet, SciLifeLab and the University of Cambridge, have now carried out the most extensive analysis to date of ALL at the protein level, by studying the activity in over 8 000 genes and proteins. The results show aberrant folding in the DNA

Artisanal interpretation of ceramics from the Bronze Age shows that a nine-year-old child could be a highly skilled artisan. This was one of the discoveries presented in a new thesis from Lund University. The thesis explores how an artisanal perspective can contribute to archaeology by providing new insights into archaeological artefacts. “I have found that even the most simple household receptacl

Young people in India are often described as a well-educated and progressive force. How does that align with the right-wing populism sweeping through the country? Journalism student Linn Jönsson embarked on a reporting journey to Bombay, delving into religious and political conflicts of present-day India. In the Fall of 2023, Linn Jönsson received the SASNET travel grant for journalism students at

Social media provides a new environment that makes it possible to carefully edit the image you want to project of yourself. A study from Lund University in Sweden suggests that many people are prepared to pay to ”filter out” unfavorable information. Economists Håkan Holm and Margaret Samahita have investigated how we curate our social image on the web using game theory. Previous studies have been

Up to now, researchers have believed that birds stay at home and altruistically help raise younger siblings because this is the only way to pass on genes when you cannot breed yourself. But this idea is only partially true. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that birds benefit from being helpful because it also increases their chances of reproducing in the future. “The results show t

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har utvecklat en teknik för att mäta elektriska signaler från 128 hjärnområden samtidigt hos vakna råttor. Den har de sedan använt för att mäta vad som händer med nervcellerna när råttorna får psykedeliska droger. Resultaten visar på en oväntad och samtidig synkronisering bland nervcellerna i flera områden i hjärnan. Idén om att elektriska svängningar, oscillationer,

Reaction Engineering introduces third-year chemical engineering students at Lund University to the principles of reactor analysis, sizing, and design. Like other similar courses, it was traditionally taught with a heavy emphasis on theory and the derivation of mathematical equations. Students completed numerous exercises but rarely developed an intuitive understanding of the combined effects of ph

Många patienter med akut bröstsmärta blir inlagda på vårdavdelning – trots att bara en bråkdel av dem behöver akut, högspecialiserad hjärtsjukvård. Forskaren och akutläkaren Tsvetelina Nilsson har i sitt avhandlingsarbete undersökt hur dessa patienter – på ett säkert sätt – snabbare kan bedömas. I snitt kan nästan hälften av de som söker för akut bröstsmärta tryggt skickas hem – redan efter någon

Throughout life, our lungs are vital organs. For newborns as well as for elderly patients, there is a need for safe and continuous lung monitoring in the healthcare. Some of today's common methods of examining the lungs, such as X-rays and computed tomography are limiting since they can not be applied continuously and carry ionizing radiation. A new technology for clinical lung monitoring is now o

The brain's big-eating immune cells can slow down the progression of Alzheimer's disease. This is shown by a study that is now published in Nature Aging. The brain's own immune cells are called microglia and are found in the central nervous system. They are big eaters that kill viruses, damaged cells and infectious agents they come across. It has long been known that microglial cells can be activa
