Det saknas inte initiativ för att bryta det växande sociala utanförskapet i Sverige. Mer oklart är vad som fungerar. Forskningen hittills visar att “eldsjälar” är en nyckel till framgång. Men är det rimligt att lägga allt ansvar på dem? Sverige, liksom resten av världen, brottas med flera stora samhällsutmaningar. Ojämlikheten och inkomstklyftorna ökar och antalet resurssvaga bostadsområden har bl

Congratulations, Katarina Steding-Ehrenborg, Docent at Lund University! You’re one of six sports researchers who will take part in a two-year development program in which the Swedish Olympic Committee is now investing. What will the investment mean for you? – The support from the SOC means that we can carry out long-term studies on how strenuous exercise affects the heart and thus help make sports

After a year of intensive work by many involved, the Swedish Climate Symposium with its close to 400 participants, has come to an end. Now an evaluation of the conference awaits, but the feeling is that most people experienced it as a successful event. To take the pulse during the symposium itself, we did a couple of short interviews with some of those who were there. Satisfied organisers Josefin

Många länder i Afrika påverkas fortfarande av strukturer som de gamla kolonimakterna la grunden till. Eller? I ett nytt projekt ska forskaren Erik Green från Ekonomihögskolan syna gamla sanningar i sömmarna. Han leder ett internationellt forskarteam som nu för första gången ska systematisera stora mängder historiska data från Ostindiska kompaniets kolonisering av Sydafrika. Under 1500- till 1700-t

Researchers have succeeded in restoring lost brain function in mouse models of stroke using small molecules that in the future could potentially be developed into a stroke therapy. “Communication between nerve cells in large parts of the brain changes after a stroke and we show that it can be partially restored with the treatment", says Tadeusz Wieloch, senior professor at Lund University who led
