Investigating air pollution is not for researchers afraid of heights. One of the fearless is Erik Ahlberg, a combustion physicist at the Faculty of Engineering (LTH). His working days are often spent far above ground – currently on the roof of Malmö Town Hall, where the instruments that capture air particles are located. There are many stairs in the town hall. The last staircase to the top of the

Ny teknik kan underlätta äldre personers aktivitet, men då måste de involveras i teknikutvecklingen. Det framgår i en ny avhandling av William Son Galanza, SWEAH-doktorand i forskargruppen Tillämpad gerontologi i Lund, som har tagit fram en AI-modell som kan kategorisera äldres vardagsaktiviteter. Den äldre befolkningen växer och teknikanvändningen ökar. – Teknik bidrar till bättre livskvalitet om

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har utvecklat en teknik för att mäta elektriska signaler från 128 hjärnområden samtidigt hos vakna råttor. Den har de sedan använt för att mäta vad som händer med nervcellerna när råttorna får psykedeliska droger. Resultaten visar på en oväntad och samtidig synkronisering bland nervcellerna i flera områden i hjärnan. Idén om att elektriska svängningar, oscillationer,

Much research on diabetes focuses on understanding what happens when the insulin-producing cells are destroyed. Researchers at Lund University have instead chosen to investigate what protects the insulin-producing cells. Their research shows that a protein of the immune system protects the insulin-producing cells from inflammation and death. The study, published in PNAS, is an example of basic res
