During the summer, Kristina Lång's research received a lot of attention in the media, nationally as well as internationally. The study showed that AI-assisted breast cancer screening is a safe alternative to radiologists' double-reading, reducing the workload of the overburdened profession by as much as 44 percent. We asked Kristina Lång about her experiences. Also, tips on how to increase outreac

The results from the autumn travel habits survey show that a majority of the University’s staff (approx. 80%) get to and from work by walking, cycling or using public transport. This is a higher percentage than for other large organisations in Lund. However, there is potential for even more people to commute sustainably by investments in public transport and measures to promote cycling on campus.
