Snow still lies like a soft white quilt over Lund as I meet Sofie Ceberg, Senior Lecturer and the Faculty’s new Coordinator for gender equality and equal opportunities. After a long winter break, she is full of energy and eager to take on the assignment. The role is intended to strengthen the Faculty’s long-term work on gender equality and equal opportunities (shortened to "JoL" in Swedish), with

When used as a diagnostic aid, artificial intelligence (AI) can help physicians save time and make more accurate diagnoses. However, physicians should also understand and be able to explain the computer’s decision to the patient to avoid jeopardising trust, says AI researcher Stefan Larsson. AI also puts us at a crossroads: do we want to reflect the world or change it? Stefan Larsson is a research

Finding housing is a major challenge for students in university towns like Lund, where demand far exceeds supply. Long queue systems, high rents, and limited options force many to commute or move frequently — disrupting their studies and daily life. Negar Khaliliaraghi, shows in her research, a clear causal link between student housing and academic performance. Finding accommodation is often one o

It is a catalyst that will modernise the Faculty of Science, both at Brunnshög and Sölvegatan. Dean Sven Lidin may have become “nearsighted, flabby and middle-aged” during his ten years in symbiosis with Science Village, but his future visions are more vital than ever. It is one of those pale September mornings when there is one online meeting after another. But a few minutes after 11:00, the dean

We need to prioritise nature even if there are other conflicting interests – biodiversity is essential to all of us on the planet and ultimately to our health and wellbeing. The statement comes from Maria Blasi Romero, researcher in Biodiversity and Conservation at Lund University. “I went to COP15 to learn about the processes and how to share my research with those who can make use of the results

The strange space object ‘Oumuamua took the scientific community by storm nine years ago. In the wake of its passage close to our planet, many questions have been raised. Recently, an international initiative was launched to search for more visitors from other solar systems. One night in October 2017, a telescope in Hawaii is carrying out its routine task of scanning the night sky. The following d

So far, the way dolphins navigate, find food and socialise using sound signals has baffled researchers. Josefin Starkhammar, senior lecturer at the Division for Biomedical Engineering, together with colleagues, has now developed an algorithm which brings us closer to understanding the cetaceans’ phenomenal signalling system. In future, the new algorithm could be used to protect dolphins and to dev

Ny forskning från Lunds universitet visar hur offentliga organisationer kan tillämpa vissa principer i sin kommunikation för att stärka förtroende för myndigheter. Kommunikation är grunden för en organisations existens. Organisationer manifesteras också genom byggnader, maskiner och viktiga papper.

Gabriel Börner spelade hellre flipperspel än pluggade på gymnasiet och kom därför inte in på läkarlinjen. Idag är han överläkare i kirurgi på Helsingborgs lasarett och forskare vid Lunds universitet. Han har uppfunnit en ”symaskin” för att sy ihop patienter efter en bukoperation. Även om vägen dit var längre än han hade kunnat föreställa sig, har han haft väldigt roligt. I alla fall nästan alltid.
