Sustainable construction: How fungi research at Lund University could revolutionise infrastructure repair

Much of the world's infrastructure is made of concrete, which presents a challenge when it cracks and needs repair. Traditional repair methods involve cutting away a large amount of material. Now researchers at Lund University are investigating an innovative solution: using fungi to mend concrete. This groundbreaking research got off the ground with a Sustainable Idea Exploration grant and support

The Ravensbrück Archive has been nominated as a UNESCO Memory of the World

A unique archive in Lund, Sweden, holds 500 in-depth interviews with survivors of the Ravensbrück concentration camp. The interviews were conducted immediately after the survivors arrived in Sweden in spring 1945. The archive has now been nominated to the UN agency UNESCO to become part of the Memory of the World Register, as a piece of written cultural heritage of great value to humanity. The arc

Almost time to move in to the newly renovated M Building

Back then, the red brick buildings rose like a lonely wall against the open fields of eastern Lund. Now, the buildings are a hub in the middle of the knowledge highway that links the centre of the city with the research facilities on the outskirts of Brunnshög. We are talking, of course, about the buildings on the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) campus. Architect Klas Anshelm’s red brick buildings ha

40 years in the name of fitness

For 40 years, students, employees and other Lund residents have flocked to Gerdahallen for training and exercise. After some tough years, the enthusiasts behind the fitness centre are now looking to the future. “Are you ready? Let’s go! Roll your shoulders back, bend your knees, weight on your heels and look forward. Bend and stretch, come on!” Some 25 people have gathered in one of the group exer

Anne L'Huillier received Lund's first Nobel Prize

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

Goods and equipment affect the environment the most

For the first time, the University has investigated the collective climate footprint of the entire organisation. Emissions of greenhouse gases fell sharply during the pandemic, almost exclusively due to the suspension of travel. However, there is still a long way to go to meet the emission targets for 2023 in the sustainability plan. The recent report shows that, in 2018, the University emitted a

Watch out for the predators

The idea of publishing research findings in open access journals is in many ways an asset in the research community. Unfortunately, it has also entailed the emergence of many unprofessional agents on the market. Their only purpose is to trick researchers into giving them money. Olga had published academic work over 25 times before she fell victim to a predatory journal. Today she is embarrassed be

Integration can lead to conflict

The Islamic presence in Europe is becoming normalised. But integration also leads to increased conflict, according to Oliver Scharbrodt, Lund University’s new professor of Islamic Studies. Oliver Scharbrodt came to the University last spring after taking up Sweden’s only professorship in Islamic Studies. “I was attracted by the fact that Lund is one of Europe’s classic top universities and that th

Researcher raises awareness of coeliac disease in Ethiopia

Coeliac disease, also known as gluten intolerance, has until now been all but unknown in Ethiopia. Yet as more people adopt a Western diet, the number of cases is increasing. “Few people here have heard of coeliac disease, not even among doctors,” says Adugna Negussie Gudeta, a doctoral student at the Department of Clinical Sciences in Malmö, who, together with his supervisor Daniel Agardh, is doi

Renovating the University library will take a year

The ground floor of the University Library will be refurbished and preparations will start in the summer. During the renovation, the public section will be emptied and the number of study places will be more than halved. If all goes according to plan, the University Library interior will be both better and more beautiful when all is complete in time for the start of the autumn semester 2024. There

Truth-Telling in a Priority Pricing Mechanism

In high-demand public services where priority pricing aims to ration access, like medical appointments or visa renewals, a new study by Prakriti Thami reveals that this approach may not always benefit consumers. In settings where public services are capacity-constrained and timely access is critical, such as medical appointments, passport renewals, or visa processing, priority pricing is often use

the Psychological Defence Research Institute: "We could be ten times the size we are"

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

The mystery of the stolen Mars globe

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

Research at high altitude when the air is under scrutiny

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

LU scraps plan to relocate chemistry and physics to Science Village

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

Yes, I want to use AI, but what is the right way to do it?

Many of the University’s researchers are publishing fantastic research that has been done with the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI). Many are curious to test out AI to improve, simplify or speed up at least a part of the research process. At the same time, many are asking “what am I allowed to use AI for?” The starting point when using AI in research is to follow the basic principles of

Artificial intelligence and co-intelligence during trip to Singapore

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. Singapore is a strategically important country for Lund U

Ny markör i blodet visar mängden Alzheimer i hjärnan

Forskare vid Lunds universitet och Washington University har upptäckt en blodmarkör som visar hur mycket av Alzheimers sjukdom man bär på i hjärnan. Fynden kan hjälpa att se vem som kan ha mest nytta av de nya läkemedlen som godkänts i bland annat USA, Japan och Kina – och som är på väg att godkännas i Europa.
