Nanoparticles can be used to detect certain lung diseases. The AiDA measurement method – based on the inhalation of nanoparticles – is easy to use and can complement other lung examinations. The method has now been tested on over 800 people, and the results look promising, according to a new thesis in aerosol technology. Measuring the structure of the lung is difficult; even lung scans cannot reli

Reconfigurable transistors are key elements in the development of future semiconductors. As conventional transistors approach the limit of how small they can become, more functions in the same number of units will become increasingly important in developing small and energy-efficient circuits for better memories and more powerful computers. In two articles published in Science Advances and Nature

The time has come to celebrate four and a half months of meetings between NanoLund PhD students and their mentors. In the closing workshop, the mentees reflected on the program and what they have learnt. Under the guidance of Tina Persson from Passage2pro, they looked back at the career development plan they did at the start of the program to think about how and what they would like to change or p

When history meets present-day science fascinating things reveal themselves. In such a case, a sample of chain mail from the 15th-century Danish flagship, Gribshunden, was recently analyzed at MAX IV’s NanoMAX beamline. Researchers from Lund University want to know more about the structural and chemical makeup of the metal to give us a window into Sweden’s past, and NanoLundians Jesper Wallentin a

The annual event Almedalen Week in Visby is about to begin. Lund University is present and will highlight our global challenges – such as air pollution and food poverty. The program also inspires hope of finding solutions in external engagement between academia and society. Christina Isaxon at NanoLund participates in a panel discussion named “Clean air for everyone?” and an interview organized by

Clay is described as an ancient material with a great future. “The potential areas of application are huge,” says an enthusiastic Marie Skepö, professor of theoretical chemistry whom we recently welcomed as an affiliated faculty member of NanoLund. Clay is a material that has been used since ancient times for protecting, building, and carrying things. If we learn more about how to change various p

A lab where you can “craft” new materials on the atomic level, bringing together cross-disciplinary scientists to produce nanomaterials and semiconductor components. A neighborhood with major research infrastructures, complementary to each other. And most important: an open environment where academia, industry, and society can meet and collaborate, finding solutions for a sustainable world. Intrig

Vi har nu påbörjat arbetet med att mata in våra dataleverantörers lokaler i det så kallade Stationsregistret. Först in är Standardrutterna från Svensk Fågeltaxering. Stationsregistret drivs av Naturvårdsverket och Havs- och Vattenmyndigheten. Här lägger de nationella datavärdarna in alla lokaler från vilka miljöövervakningsdata har samlats in. Som användare kan du söka fram lokaler som en viss dat

Leveransmallen för data från delprogrammet Svensk Dagfjärilsövervakning finns nu tillgänglig på sidan "Leverera data". Varje mall är specifikt utformad för respektive program, men med utgångspunkten att data från alla program ska kunna presenteras på ett likartat sätt i en kommande databas. Mallen är väl genomtänkt men har ännu inte testats i praktiken. Den kan därför komma att justeras efterhand.

Datamängden från standardrutterna som ligger på gbif.org har uppdaterats med 2019 års data. Samtidigt rättade vi till ett misstag som innebär att data från en specifik rutt har tagits bort för fyra år. Trots allas bästa ansträngningar är det i stort sett oundvikligt att något fel smyger sig in i en datamängd. Men så fort sådant uppdagas så rättar vi till det hela och uppdaterar de publicerade data
