First-born children are at lower risk of heart attack and stroke than their siblings – provided that the number of siblings does not exceed three; then it is the other way around. And people without siblings have a higher risk of heart attack and stroke later in life compared to those who have siblings. These are among the findings of a new population study from Lund University published in BMJ Op

Last year, the Disciplinary Board at Lund University found 64 students guilty. The most common form of cheating is plagiarism.  “It is important to report it”, says Maria Bangura director of studies at the School of Social Work. “Departments have a great responsibility to ensure that students have the required skills when they head out and start working with people in difficult situations. It is s

How staff communicate – at lectures, meetings, via email and on social media is more valuable for the trust in the University than PR campaigns. However, to talk about Lund University staff as ambassadors for the university brand is to choose the wrong perspective, say communication researchers Charlotte Simonsson and Mats Heide. On social media staff has a bigger impact than the organisation“I wo

One in three patients is asked about their lifestyle habits when they visit the outpatient healthcare clinics. This figure really ought to be higher, according to Professors Hanne Tønnesen and Inger Kristensson Hallström, who are in charge of the WHO Collaborating Centre at Lund University. Lifestyle should concern the health care system even more than it does today,stresses Hanne Tønnesen: “We qu

Mammography screening supported by artificial intelligence (AI) is a safe alternative to today’s conventional double reading by radiologists and can reduce heavy workloads for doctors. This has now been shown in an interim analysis of a prospective, randomised controlled trial, which addressed the clinical safety of using AI in mammography screening. The trial, led by researchers from Lund Univers

New research results now published from Lund University’s MASAI trial are even better than the initial findings from last year: AI-supported breast screening detected 29 per cent more cases of cancer compared with traditional screening. More invasive cancers were also clearly detected at an early stage using AI. Now the final part of the research study will focus on breast cancer missed by screeni

A new study, published in the scientific journal PLOS One, reveals that a culture of silence surrounds sexual harassment in universities. The study was based on the supporting documents collected for the 2019-2020 Tellus report. The study, which ran from 2019-2020, was conducted via surveys sent to all staff and students at Lund University; the response rate was around one third in both groups. Th

AI, artificial intelligence, is trendy. But where does the boundary go between humankind and machine and what should we use AI for? “It’s time to ask ourselves what humankind possesses that machines do not. How can they complement each other, rather than compete?” asks philosopher Jonna Bornemark. Will your future colleagues have human intelligence – or perhaps artificial? It may sound like a stra

The results of the election in September may have an impact on academic freedom and the independence of universities from political power. The principle of keeping an arm's length between politics and higher education and research is increasingly being called into question. “I think we are currently in a situation in which the most important thing is not for universities to receive more money, but
