På universitetet kan det ta lång tid mellan ord och handling – ibland lite väl lång tid. Det är en anledning till att universitetsledningen tagit fram en plattform för strategiarbete. Den talar om vad som är allra viktigast för universitetet just nu och ska bidra till ett mycket snabbare agerande i takt med att omvärlden förändras. Pandemi, krig i Europa, fejkade nyheter, ökad polarisering både på

I en ny avhandling från Lunds universitet intervjuar genusvetaren Marco Bacio manliga sexarbetare i Sverige och Italien. Det som förvånade honom mest var att en majoritet av sexarbetarna tillhörde en välutbildad medelklass Kvinnligt sexarbete – som är långt vanligare än manligt – är väl beforskat runt om i världen. Män som säljer sex däremot har enligt Marco Bacio inte uppmärksammats i samma grad.

För att ta extremt högupplösta mikroskopbilder på exempelvis celler måste man veta exakt var man ska rikta mikroskopet så att man avbildar just det man är intresserad av. Inte så lätt när det man letar efter är levande biologiskt material såsom interagerande celler. Forskare vid Lunds universitet utvecklat en mjukvarumetod för smart, datadriven mikroskopi, som gör detta möjligt. Forskningen public

In order to take high resolution microscopic images of living biological material, you need to know exactly where to point the microscope. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now developed a software solution for smart, data-driven microscopy, which mak

When the American research field "Fear of Crime" was introduced in Sweden in the 1980s, it was translated "otrygghet", a word with a previously established meaning in Swedish. The meaning of the word "otrygghet" has since then changed significantly in Sweden. From being used to signify economic and materialist unpredictability, "otrygghet" has come to be used almost exclusively in a crime context.
