You rush into the supermarket; your mother-in-law is coming for dinner. But which products end up in your shopping basket and why? Researchers have previously tracked eye movements to understand which products attract you in a shop. In order to get closer to the truth, they now want to use new computational models in which the brain’s cognitive processes also play a major role. As you stand in the

Shiny hair. A body that smells fresh and citrusy. Many beauty ideals come with a risk of contact allergies. The dermatology clinic continually sees new patient cases, not least after the multi-year trend of gel nails. But let us start on a positive note. Life does not have to be lived entirely free of fragrances and makeup. Fragrance substances are the most common cosmetic allergens, but if you ar

Algblomning gillar vi inte. Men i avloppsvattnet kan de små snabbgroende organismerna göra susen. Det tror forskaren Jing Li som testar hur olika slags alger kan rena avloppsvattnet. ”Metoden kan bli både billigare och miljövänligare än dagens metoder” säger hon. Dessutom kan algerna sedan kanske bli bränsle eller gödningsmedel – eller rentav mat! Avloppsvatten, vare sig det kommer från köks- elle
