The research areas remain the same, but our perspective on them has changed. This is how consumption researchers Carys Egan-Wyer and Emma Samsioe describe the development in retail research over the past ten years. “In one of our recent reports, we call it 'Retail as unusual.' There is no longer a normal state in trade, no 'Business as usual.' Everything has become more uncertain,” says Carys Egan

In 2022, Sweden became the first country in the world to allow body checking in women's ice hockey. Major hockey nations are now following Lund University's research on the consequences of tougher plays on the ice. A first study shows that almost nine out of ten players in the Swedish women's hockey league are in favour of body checking – regardless of their own size. “We found that interesting. T

What happens if there is a power cut and the heating stops working for a long period of time? Besides the obvious consequences – that technology doesn’t work and it gets cold – how do we, as a society, prepare for such a crisis? Do we know who is supposed to do what when it happens? And who gets to decide on the crisis plans? There are many different unexpected and sudden events that can happen. A

Changes occur in all cells of the human body as we age. Blood stem cells, in particular, lose some of their functionality over time, contributing to various blood disorders and disease-related conditions. Scientists are investigating the reasons behind this decline. According to a recent study by researchers from the Lund Stem Cell Center at Lund University, published in Nature Aging, the genetic

Researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center have made a new discovery about how the human genome protects itself from disruption during critical stages of life. Their study, recently published in Nature Communications, reveals how two key defense mechanisms—DNA methylation and the HUSH complex—work together to safeguard genomic stability. The human genome contains large stretches of rep

One of the biggest perks of teaching at university? Supervising students and seeing them grow into their role. That is at least according to senior lecturers Olof Hallonsten and Anna Jonsson. Detectives with magnifying glasses and catching and preparing a fish.

Much research on diabetes focuses on understanding what happens when the insulin-producing cells are destroyed. Researchers at Lund University have instead chosen to investigate what protects the insulin-producing cells. Their research shows that a protein of the immune system protects the insulin-producing cells from inflammation and death. The study, published in PNAS, is an example of basic res
