The first phase was filled with creativity and collective effort. Elsa Trolle Önnerfors was surprised by how smooth the transition to distance education was. However, now the focus is more on how students are feeling and on perseverance – for how long is unknown "I used a year's worth of creativity in the first few weeks, and learnt that you can do a lot if you are not afraid to test things out",

In 2016, a forgotten archival treasure was found in the cellar of the Department of Geology. The material included a unique map of Iceland from 1844 and a geological map of the whole of New Zealand dated 1869. Now 322 works have been restored and plans are afoot for an exhibition. Through arched windows, a pale November light faintly illuminates the Hansen conference room on the fourth floor of th

Johannes Rousk is one of the world’s most cited and influential researchers, according to the analytics company Clarivate. If you ask him, the road to success was marked by luck, opportunity and fantastic people. Luck is a concept that researchers don’t use very often, but Johannes Rousk does. For him, it is not about finding the answer to the holy grail through divine intervention, which in the w

The owlet, little over three weeks old, squints slightly as Hannah Watson lays it on its back in a plastic container that once held vanilla ice cream. It seems quite happy there. Things get a little trickier when the owlet is to be measured, weighed and swabbed for bacterial samples from both front and behind. Finally, a little prick with a needle to see whether it is a male or female, and whether

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

Borders don’t just divide nations — they define our bodies too. At the skin and in the gut, our barrier organs form the frontline of defense against infection. Here, diverse communities of friendly microbes, the microbiota, help maintain health and keep these borders strong, backed up by an immune system ready to deploy antibodies against any intruder. Protecting these barrier organs is central to

Do you leave work full of energy and excited about what the rest of the day has to offer? If not – maybe it is worth trying to improve recovery during the working day.  Lina Ejlertsson's thesis is about recovery of staff in one of the most stressful work environments – healthcare centres. She says we have a certain amount of energy that either drains or fills during the working day. "I would like

Different values, cultures and language. Leading an international research group comes with additional challenges. Margareta Sandahl and Charlotta Turner are deliberately developing the emotional expertise in their group. "It pays off in terms of energy, even if it takes time. Furthermore, the doctoral students develop not just as people, but also as future leaders", says Margareta Sandahl. Margar
