In his thesis work, Lund University Master's student Daniel Diaz Rivas shows that is possible to reconstruct the time-dependent polarization of a very short pulse using a dispersion scan technique. Rivas recently recieved a price for best Master's thesis by PhotonicsSweden. Hi Daniel, congratulations to the award! Could you tell us a little bit about your thesis. What is it about? - My thesis is d

Researchers have successfully mapped the entire genome of the Eurasian spruce bark beetle. The breakthrough paves the way for new research into bark beetles and better prospects for effective pest control of a species that can destroy more than 100 million cubic metres of spruce forest during a single year in Europe and Asia. Mapping the genome of the Eurasian spruce bark beetle enables a far deep

Investigation of a metre-long front flipper, uniquely preserved with fossilized soft tissues, has revealed that the giant ichthyosaur Temnodontosaurus was equipped with flow control devices that likely served to suppress self-generated noise when foraging in dimly lit pelagic environments about 183 million years ago. Thus, this visually guided megapredator relied on underwater stealth—or ‘silent s

When physical geographer Daniel Metcalfe explains what he does in the simplest possible way, he says he examines holes in leaves. However, the project is far more sophisticated than that, and could lead to a better way of caring for the forests of the world in the future. Daniel Metcalfe is an associate senior lecture

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Graviditetsdiabetes är ett diabetestillstånd som upptäcks under graviditet. Ofta beror det på de hormonförändringar som uppträder under graviditet vilka medför en ökad insulinresistens, det vill säga ett ökat motstånd mot insulinets effekter. Diagnosen utesluter dock inte diabetes av annan orsak som upptäcks under g

Examen närmade sig och Erik Månsson visste inte vad han ville göra. Några månader senare fick han examensbeviset i sin hand och sitt första jobb - VD för ett start-up inom Food Tech. Vi pratade med Erik om hans jobb - och om start-up-världen, studentlivet och inspirationskällor. Erik, berätta vad du gör idag! Jag arbetar som VD för en start-up som heter Innoscentia, ett företag med mål att förändr

I forsknings- och innovationspropositionen från december 2024 utlovades mycket nya medel via många riktade utlysningar. Samtidigt slog man också fast att nya basanslag för forskning skulle fördelas till universiteten utifrån indikatorer, erhållna externa bidrag och antalet högciterade publikationer per lärosäte. Nu börjar vi se vissa resultat av detta och det möjliggör också nya rekryteringar. Vet

An extraordinary event has taken place this summer in a small, overlooked village north of Uppsala, blending the rich history of Swedish religious movements with cutting-edge quantum research. The village of Mehedeby, home to fewer than 600 residents, recently hosted a remarkable science conference titled "Quantum Redemption" in its 125-year-old Free Church. The conference, organized by Lund Unive

Alzheimer’s disease seems to progress faster in women than in men. The protein tau accumulates at a higher rate in women, according to research from Lund University in Sweden. The study was recently published in Brain. Over 30 million people suffer from Alzheimer’s disease worldwide, making it the most common form of dementia. Tau and beta-amyloid are two proteins known to aggregate and accumulate

In a study led by Lund University and the Amsterdam University Medical Center, researchers used PET to analyse aggregates of tau pathology in more than 12,000 people from all over the world. The study – the largest ever of its kind – examines the connection between genetic predisposition, gender and age in relation to tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. The study is published in Nature Neuroscie

Delving into the realm where light and matter converge, Mattias Bertolino's embarks on a theoretical exploration of photoionization. Focusing on multiphoton ionization of noble gas atoms, using a mixture of extreme-ultraviolet and infrared light, he explores the intricate interplay between light and matter. He aims to improve our understanding of the fundamental interactions between light and matt
