In healthcare, treatments developed for broad patient groups are often used. This is not always an effective approach. Sweden’s innovation agency Vinnova has therefore distributed research grants to eleven Swedish innovation environments whose research aims to develop more individually adapted healthcare for patients. The stem cell researchers at the IndiCell innovation environment have been award

When LINXS moved from its old premises at Ideon to The Loop in Science Village in March, the institute became the first research environment from Lund University to make the move to Brunnshög. Since then, activities have more than doubled, new collaborations have emerged, and the team’s mood is distinctly optimistic.I met with Anna Ntinidou, Head of Administration, Noomi Egan, Communications Offic

Video streamlines teaching During the pandemic, we were largely forced to start using different tools in order to continue to provide our students with the teaching they needed. Video became one of the tools that facilitated this. Video streamlined teaching; we did not need to host Zoom lectures for everything. Students also gained flexibility in their learning, m

In political debate, the notion of climate transition is often presented as a road lined with sacrifices. Many researchers, however, paint a picture of a day-to-day life that could be better than today’s. What is experienced as good or bad varies from one person to the next, and may vary over time.  “Whether something is getting better or worse is, of course, a subjective judgement. Norms change o

Photo by Markus Spiske on Unsplash The pandemic has made us test alternatives to our traditional exam methods, alternatives that work digitally and on remote. Some of these alternatives are worth keeping also when we head back to traditional, on campus, teaching. One thing we have learned the past years is that remote surveillance is problematic (no guarantee it works 100%) and limiting students’

First-born children are at lower risk of heart attack and stroke than their siblings – provided that the number of siblings does not exceed three; then it is the other way around. And people without siblings have a higher risk of heart attack and stroke later in life compared to those who have siblings.
