Two issues that have taken up a relatively large part of my time since I became pro vice-chancellor five years ago are the management of research data and IT security. Both were areas in which LU did not really live up to the expectations of a top 100 university. There are, naturally, many points of contact between the areas, and both require a larger element of university-wide solutions than what

I en studie publicerad i Nature Energy visar forskare från Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitet att bristen på infrastruktur var en viktig faktor bakom att bilproducenter valde att tillverka bensinbilar istället för elbilar i det tidiga 1900-talets USA. Forskarna uppskattar att om elnätet hade etablerats och spridits 15 till 20 år tidigare så kunde det ha lett till att en majoritet av producente

Honungsbin är vanliga pollinatörer men blomflugor, skalbaggar, fjärilar och vilda bin inklusive humlor behövs också för pollinering och är viktiga på många olika sätt. Vi kan med enkla medel hjälpa dessa insekter att trivas så att de kan bidra till en mångfald av vilda blommor, grödor och rika naturupplevelser. Höstraps, äpple, jordgubbar och åkerböna är några exempel på viktiga grödor som är bero

Several researchers at the Center for Advanced Middle Eastern Studies were doing field work during the Arab Spring. It has left deep traces in them - but also resulted in new research projects. The Arab Spring is a term describing the uprisings that started in several countries in North Africa and the Middle East in 2011. The first one took place in Tunisia and was then followed by unrest in Egypt

A new research project led by LUCSUS will examine immobility as an adaptation strategy. Through a novel research approach, and field work in different areas affected by sea level rise and erosion, it will shed light on the communities who are unable – or unwilling – to move despite negative effects on their environment. Average sea levels have swelled about 23 cm since 1880, with about 7 cm in the
