Policy experimentation: To what extent can the use of social norms promote low-carbon mobility options?

In a newly published article in Energy Policy, researchers from the IIIEE show the potential impacts that social norms can have if they were used to promote low-carbon mobility options. The transport sector is crucially important to limit global warming to 1.5ᵒC above pre-industrial levels. Its management is also important to reduce negative health impacts and the dependence on fossil fuels. Using

Lantbrukares beslut att välja rätt miljöåtgärder måste underlättas

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Många lantbrukare är positivt inställda till åtgärder som kan gynna den biologiska mångfalden och miljön. Men byråkrati och regelkrångel står ofta i vägen menar Lovisa Nilsson i en ny avhandling, som även efterlyser bättre ekonomiska incitament för den enskilde lantbrukaren att välja bra miljöåtgärder.

Machine learning drives drug repurposing for neuroblastoma

Using machine learning and a large volume of data on genes and existing drugs, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have identified a combination of statins and phenothiazines that is particularly promising in the treatment of the aggressive form of neuroblastoma. The results from experimental trials showed slowing of tumour growth and higher survival rates. The childhood cancer, neuroblastoma

Exploring the Future Climates of the Polar Regions

The Polar regions play a crucial role in balancing global climate – with the poles heating up much faster than the rest of the world. Yet, climate projections for the Polar regions still have significant uncertainties. This is hampering efforts to curb climate change and deal with the effects we already see at play not only within the Polar regions, but also in Europe and the rest of the world. Po

Consultant’s warning: “Major consequences to falling outside the top 100”

Lund University has been sliding down the lists of the three main university ranking organisations for several years. Today, we make only one of the top 100 lists, and even then with a mere five places above the 100 cut-off. Daniel J. Guhr is an expert on the importance of these rankings and knows what the consequences can be if the downward trend continues. “Losing a top 100 position in all three
