Andreas Edsfeldt, docent i experimentell kardiologi vid Lunds universitet, får Bundy Academys stora pris 2025. Prissumman är 3 miljoner kronor, och forskningen som prisas handlar om hur hjärtkärlkomplikationer i samband med typ 2-diabetes kan förebyggas – i förlängningen både med läkemedel och förbättrad bilddiagnostik. År 2016 fick Andreas Edsfeldt Bundy Acedemys lilla pris, även då för att stude

Populismen har fått kraftig vind i seglen de senaste decennierna. I alla delar av världen ser vi framgångar för både höger- och vänsterrörelser med populistiska diskurser, och inte minst på den europeiska kontinenten. På Ekonomihögskolan i Lund anordnades den 21 november ett internationellt symposium, med finansiering från Centrum för europaforskning, för att analysera och diskutera populismens in

Årets sötaste helg står för dörren. Kanske bakar du pepparkakor, lägger in sill, kokar knäck och sötad risgrynsgröt. Men vad betyder det söta för oss och vad är historien bakom sockrets intåg i vår vardag? – Det söta och det feta har ganska långt tillbaka haft hög status. Därför har det varit naturligt med något sött som gåvor eller att bjuda på vid fest och högtider så långt tillbaka i tiden som

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Ninety thousand people die in Sweden every year. Despite 80 percent of Sweden’s population stating they would like to donate their organs after death, fewer than 200 people actually become organ donors each year. Why? This is due to, among other reasons, our limited legislation and organs not being made available beca

These are busy times for atomic physicist Anne L’Huillier. Earlier this year, she received the prestigious Wolf Prize – perhaps not as widely known among the general public, but within the field of physics it is considered second only to the Nobel Prize. Anne L’Huillier was honoured for her contribution to ultrafast laser science and attosecond physics. “I haven’t really taken it all in yet. I hav

In the aftermath of October 7th, with Israeli hostages still in captivity and ongoing war, destruction and violence in Gaza, prospects for future peaceful coexistence in the region seem more distant than ever. In conjunction, Hamas’ ha
