PhD student Lina Lefstad is passionate about working towards just climate change mitigation. She is excited about how we as a society can use CCS technology in the most just and effective way for the technology to genuinely contribute to decarbonisation and emissions reductions. What do you explore in your PhD-project?  My PhD is part of a broader project called “Burying problems? Carbon capture a

Today, Times Higher Education (THE) published their latest ranking and Lund University has been ranked 95. This is an improvement of 11 places compared to last year. This means that Lund University has made strong progress in all three major rankings this year. “It’s easy to criticise rankings, but they aim to make sense of the complexity of what a university does and how we are working together t

Over the past few years, we have been working to develop a Core Curriculum for doctoral education at the faculty. This initiative has grown out of a need that has become increasingly clear: that our doctoral students should not only develop deep specialist knowledge through their research projects, but also the broader competencies that are part of doctoral education.The background for this work a

The idea of publishing research findings in open access journals is in many ways an asset in the research community. Unfortunately, it has also entailed the emergence of many unprofessional agents on the market. Their only purpose is to trick researchers into giving them money. Not only does a successful researcher need to produce good research, their findings must also be visible among tough comp

Hur mäter vi ett lands utsläpp av koldioxid mest rättvisande? Genom hur mycket utsläpp produktionen ger upphov till inom landets gränser? Eller ska vi ta hänsyn även till utrikeshandeln på olika sätt? Ekonomihistorikern Astrid Kander från Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitet förespråkar att de nuvarande måtten kompletteras med egenutvecklade ”teknikjusterade klimatfotavtrycket” som även mäter ex

Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the abnormal accumulation and spread of the tau protein in the brain. An international study can now show how tau spreads according to four distinct patterns that lead to different symptoms with different prognoses of the affected individuals. The study was published in Nature Medicine. “In contrast to how we have so far interpreted the spread of tau in the

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

“Toke is shy but does the most exploring of all of them, while Siggi is relaxed and friendly. But you have to know them to be able to work with them”, says cognitive scientist Stephan Reber. He is not talking about his colleagues but the alligators now on site in Ystad zoo, where the researchers have a specially adapted facility to study the animals’ behaviour.

Interview with CMES researcher Svante Lundgren about antisemitism in relation to Israel and Palestine. The original article, in Swedish, was published on 8 November 2023 as part of the LU Newsletter Apropå. Every violent escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has led to an increase in antisemitism in many countries. This is also the case with the current war between Israel and Hamas, argue

In May and June 2020, more that 300 dead elephants were found in Botswana´s Okavango Delta. Initially it was suspected that poaching was the reason, but it was later shown that they were poisoned by cyanobacteria. This is an increasing environmental problem, and recent work to create a global dataset on algal blooms shows significant changes in the last twenty years. Toxic algal blooms in water, k

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. "Empowerment of vulnerable groups is unlikely to arise through interventions from climate adaptation projects only. Yet, often these projects are seen as drivers for social change", says Stephen Woroniecki, PHD-candidate at LUCSUS.  He says that, in a warming and increasingly unequal world, more and more people are on

Ett fiskeredskap som kan vara det äldsta i sitt slag. Det var vad antikvarie Joen Leffler hittade i en bortglömd kartong i Historiska museets magasin vid en inventering. – Även om vi har hittat annat som är spektakulärt är det här i en klass för sig, säger han. Kartongen är rektangulär och av de påklistrade etiketterna att döma har den en gång i tiden använts för att packa lönekuvert, eller så kal
