Do they themselves use the word integration? These questions occupy sociologist Dalia Abdelhady who is about to conclude a study of three populations in the US, in France and in Germany, based on thei

Despite an increasing number of informal outdoor sport and recreational spaces in Sweden and our society, not everyone feel that they can use them. Public spaces for physical activity are dominated by boys and men, while girls and women are under-represented. The research project Equalizer examines the barriers that hinders different groups access to these spaces and methods to remove the obstacle

A research team led by Lund University in Sweden has provided an important clue to the origin of the element Ytterbium in the Milky Way, by showing that the element largely originates from supernova explosions. The groundbreaking research also provides new opportunities for studying the evolution of our galaxy. The study is published in Astronomy & Astrophysics. Ytterbium is one of four elements i

The discovery that free electrons can move asymmetrically provides a deeper understanding of one of the basic processes in physics: the photoelectric effect. It was first described by Albert Einstein and explains how high frequency light releases electrons from a material. The results have been published in Physical Review Letters. “The photoelectric effect has been studied for many years and it’s

With two articles published in quick succession from his time as a research fellow at Cambridge University, UK, Christopher Douse has moved to Lund Stem Cell Center to develop a research programme on newly-discovered guardians of the human genome. More than half of the human genome consists of transposons, DNA sequences that can ‘jump’ around within the genome. Left unchecked these elements can ca

An international study led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden shows that the rapid increase in land use in the world's tropical areas is affecting the global carbon cycle more than was previously known. By studying data from a new satellite imaging system, the researchers also found that the biomass in tropical forests is decreasing. Vegetation fills a very important function in the carbo
