Few conflicts today seem as difficult to resolve as the one between Israel and Palestine – a conflict concerning territory, religion and historical claims reaching back a thousand years. The recent violence between Israel and Hamas, the infected question of Jerusalem’s status and an increasing separation between the populations make the journey towards peace seem particularly long.

Ethnologist Susanne Lundin’s research is ultimately about life and death and how people relate to the inevitable. What are people willing to do to delay the end briefly? Is there a limit beyond which someone ceases to be human? Susanne Lundin is a professor at the Department of Arts and Cultural Sciences and has conducted interdisciplinary research with medics for 30 years. Today, she is a sought-

Donald Trump’s trade wars have dominated the news cycle for quite some time. According to economist Fredrik NG Andersson, we risk becoming blind if we only focus on the short term. What is happening is not just about immediate effects but about the dawn of a new global order and the end of the world order that emerged in the 1990s after the Cold War.

A considerable reduction in the availability of electricity is expected this winter. If the electricity available is less than the demand for electricity, this results in what is known as a power shortfall. This could lead to short power cuts at the University. There is now a Vice-Chancellor’s decision that clarifies duties and responsibilities within the University in the event of a power shortfa

When everyday life is not recognisable, when conversation is silenced, when memories disappear. Alzheimer’s disease is contracted by 60 000 people in Sweden annually and accounts for 60 per cent of all types of dementia disease. There is no cure, but research has come a long way in diagnosing the disease at an early stage. “Over the past ten years there has been a revolution concerning our possibi

​​​​​​​Did you know that about 70% of rare diseases begin in childhood? How about that 1 in 5 cancers are considered a rare disease? Or that nearly three-quarters of all rare diseases are genetic diseases? With more than 6,000 rare diseases known to impact the lives of an estimated 300 million people around the world – rare diseases are all too common. Limited knowledge of these diseases often res

Singing can be a real health boost. Song involves your emotions, thoughts and body; the feelgood hormone oxytocin surges and the stress hormone cortisol declines. Singing accompanies us from the cradle to the grave, and binds us together as human beings. But what do kids sing in school, how much, and in what way? David Johnson, researcher at the Malmö Academy of Music, investigates this in his the

Christina Isaxon has always been interested in how small particles in the air affect our health. As society’s use of nanomaterials increases, research questions about safety are becoming urgent. ‟We need to know more about the conditions in which nanoparticles can affect us and how we can safely handle these materials.” Her research is about understanding how nanoparticles are generated and releas

Many of us have digital maps at our fingertips in our smartphones, but these maps are not adapted to guide us when walking or finding our way in new environments, for example, as tourists in an unfamiliar big city. Creating such maps requires in-depth knowledge about map design which can be further improved by using new technology that can process large amounts of data. “We are collaborating with

Huntington’s disease is hereditary, genetic and usually begins between the ages of 30 and 50. In Sweden, around 1,000 people have the diagnosis and several thousand live with the risk of getting the disease. Even more people have a connection to the disease as its symptoms also affect those close to the patient to a high degree. The disease leads to premature death and there are no treatments that

Epigenetics has become an important tool for researchers endeavoring to understand the causes and development stages of type 2 diabetes. In the future, epigenetic biomarkers could be used to predict type 2 diabetes and individualise its treatment.
