Jakten på att kunna kontrollera kvantfysikens märkvärdiga fenomen pågår världen över. Årets Nobelpris i fysik bidrar till att göra ämnet ännu hetare. Även vid Lunds universitet deltar man i att utforska kvanttillståndens okända och ibland hjärnskrynklande perspektiv. Fysikdocent Mathieu Gisselbrecht visar vägen ner i Laserlabbets källarkorridor på Fysicum. I ett par olika rum breder avancerad utru

Många patienter med akut bröstsmärta blir inlagda på vårdavdelning – trots att bara en bråkdel av dem behöver akut, högspecialiserad hjärtsjukvård. Forskaren och akutläkaren Tsvetelina Nilsson har i sitt avhandlingsarbete undersökt hur dessa patienter – på ett säkert sätt – snabbare kan bedömas. I snitt kan nästan hälften av de som söker för akut bröstsmärta tryggt skickas hem – redan efter någon

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have investigated the link between exposure to PFAS and the development of asthma. The results show that among children whose mothers had very high levels of PFAS exposure during pregnancy, the risk of asthma was significantly higher than among children whose mothers had lower levels of PFAS exposure. PFAS (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are

What are AI writing tools and how do they affect our assessments? Three main options for considering AI writing tools in assessment are: 1. to ban their use, 2. to assume that they may be used, and set tasks which incorporate them or 3. require them to be used – to fully incorporate the tools in the assessment.
