The excitement has been palpable in recent weeks following the award of the Nobel Prize in Physics to Anne L’Huillier, a researcher at Lund. This is the first time a researcher at Lund University has received a Nobel Prize, and atomic physicist Anne L’Huillier is only the fifth woman ever to be awarded the prize in Physics. By now it is widely known where atomic physicist Anne L’Huillier was when

Economic conditions influence whether and when people choose to have children. A new report from the Swedish government inquiry A Future with Children, led by LUSEM economist Åsa Hansson, shows how financial risks – particularly for women – may be contributing to declining birth rates. Fewer children are being born in Sweden, and economic conditions may play a larger role than previously assumed.

In an ideal world, perhaps the Psychological Defence Research Institute in Helsingborg would not even exist. But the global situation has brought attention, increased research funding and significant interest in collaboration from wider society. “The entire research institute is built around the idea that the world is troubled. We could be ten times the size we are, there is such an enormous amoun

In March 2015, a valuable globe of Mars was stolen from the Astronomy Library. After disappearing without a trace for almost a decade, it suddenly turned up at an antique dealer in Stockholm. The astronomical treasure has finally been returned to Lund. Astronomers have been using globes to visualise moons and planets ever since the 18th century. As telescopes improved in the late 19th century, int

There are a number of regions and countries in the world of particular interest to the University, and we are keeping a keen eye on them in order to increase international collaborations. One of these countries is Singapore. Last week, I had the privilege of being part of the Swedish business delegation and Swedish state visit to Singapore.

Last year was the warmest year on record and 2024 is on track to be even warmer. Democracy is in decline and food insecurity is increasing as a result of military conflicts, economic crises and extreme weather. The ability of the United Nations to act globally is significantly weaker than before owing to the geopolitical situation. This comes at a time when we really need international cooperation

On 12 December, the Government presented the Research and Innovation Bill entitled “Research and Innovation for the Future, Curiosity and Benefit”. An overall assessment of the Bill shows that it is much more challenging for Lund University than any previous Research Bill. It offers great opportunities for many researchers and different types of research, while stearing research more than earlier

Investigating air pollution is not for researchers afraid of heights. One of the fearless is Erik Ahlberg, a combustion physicist at the Faculty of Engineering (LTH). His working days are often spent far above ground – currently on the roof of Malmö Town Hall, where the instruments that capture air particles are located. There are many stairs in the town hall. The last staircase to the top of the

What has been the main option for a long time – i.e. relocating basically all physics and chemistry to Science Village – is no longer relevant. The costs would be too high and the logistics of providing first and second-cycle education in particular would be difficult to organise. “This was crucial. The costs plus the fact that everything indicated that if we had relocated first and second-cycle e

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har i en ny observationsstudie tittat på samtliga fall av hjärttransplantationer hos barn under 18 år i Norden mellan 1986 och 2023. Totalt 597 barn ingick i studien, varav 461 transplanterades. Resultaten visar att överlevnaden ökat markant – en utveckling som forskarna kopplar till tekniska framsteg, avancerad teknik och bättre rutiner i vården. Kort om studien:597

Intresset för universitetets allmänna handlingar ökar. Att kunna begära ut myndighetshandlingar är en viktig del av demokratin. Baksidan är att handläggningen kan vara resurskrävande och i vissa fall ta flera veckor. De senaste åren har mejlen till Universitetsarkivet med frågor om allmänna handlingar stadigt ökat. Från 1 906 mejl år 2019 till 3 494 förra året.Det visar statistik som LUM tagit del
