Our research Our research focuses on how environmental factors, urban planning and infrastructures affect our health on a populational level. We want to know how different factors in our surroundings might improve or worsen our health. With health, we consider both physical and psychological aspects. Our research sheds light on how to increase active commuting in society. Some of our studies focus

Ulf Gerdtham Our research Health economics is characterised by the application of economic theories and methods on issues concerning health. Our research covers the relationship between economic factors and individuals’ lifestyle factors, and health-related behaviours, where physical activity is a key aspect. This could include the effect of changing physical activity on health economic outcomes s

CoPARLU är stolt vetenskaplig arrangör av forskningens dag 2023! Att leva en fysiskt aktiv livsstil kan förknippas med en rad olika hälsofördelar och påverkar vår hälsa i en positiv riktning. Vad händer egentligen i vår kropp när vi rör på oss? Kan träning användas som behandling vid ohälsa? Och kan det någonsin bli för mycket träning?

Till Koglin Our researchUrban, transport and mobility planning have a major impact on how people can use the urban spaces and how people can move in the city. Thus, by exploring how urban public spaces and spaces of mobility can be transformed and redeveloped for people and not for cars, peoples’ physical activities can increase by moving through urban spaces as pedestrians or cyclists. This will

- about the project The concept of deep time is a result of the insights into Earth’s multi-billion-year history. Most of this time our planet harbored life. Animals likely arose as far back as 800 million years ago. Their increased speed of movement, as compared to other life forms, very soon led to the evolution of a nervous system that integrated sensory organs with motor movements. This was th

The cognitive zoology team conducts behavioral studies measuring various cognitive skills. We mainly study different species of lizards, turtles, crocodilians and palaeognath birds. They occupy different phylogenetic nodes in the tree of life and represent different evolutionary paths and relatedness to one another. We measure so-called fundamental cognitive functions. Such functions underly more

The neuroanatomy team studies the brains of extant reptiles and birds to be able to reconstruct their evolution. Animal brains vary quite a lot in absolute size as well as size relative to the body and exhibit a huge diversity of shapes, but they also vary enormously on the inside and new techniques in neuroscience make it possible to study this hidden variation on a large scale. We collect brains

The palaeontology team has members in Scotland and the US and together have collected high-resolution CT scans of about 300 fossil reptiles and birds, including a diversity of extinct species on the line to modern-day crocodilians, dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus rex and Stegosaurus, and numerous species spanning the dinosaur-bird evolutionary transition. Their published work has shown that many dino
