On-chip optical communication between tiny light-based components can make neuromorphic (brain-inspired) computing much smaller and more energy-efficient. In this work, researchers demonstrate that individual nanowire devices on a silicon chip can transmit and receive light signals directly to each other. These miniature circuits communicate reliably, using significantly less power than convention

ClimBEco’s annual summer meeting was held this August over two consecutive days, with both online and in-person meetings in Lund, Malmö and Gothenburg. The summer meeting is one of the highlights of our graduate school, where current PhD students can meet, network and learn more about an interdisciplinary topic. This year our focus was on Ecosystem services in the city. SummaryAlmost 50 participan

For generations, Indigenous and riverine communities in the Amazon have relied on deep ecological knowledge to live in harmony with the rainforest. But, as climate disasters reshape the woodlands, local expertise is often overlooked in environmental policies and scientific studies. A new research project aims to change that. In 2023 and 2024, the Amazon faced severe droughts. Rivers dried up, cutt

This year, MultiPark has the pleasure of welcoming two new research groups. The Mackenzie Lab aims to decode the neurobiological underpinnings of emotion through experimental studies in animal models. Jacob Vogel’s team uses AI to analyze clinical data for improved understanding as well as patient-tailored diagnosis and care of neurodegenerative disease patients. Say hello to Åsa Mackenzie and Jac

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are the latest topics within health and care services. With its capacity to process large volumes of data, self-learning software can detect complex correlations between patients, find disease markers at an early stage and make more correct diagnoses. However, this new technology also implies a risk. An interdisciplinary research project involving

How do you fit everything together – at home and at work – and feel good at the same? Our researcher at the Faculty of Medicine, Carita Håkansson, has done research on the matter. Activity balance means the right amount of activities in relation to your energy and time."The most important thing is to have a balance between activities that take and give energy," explains Carita Håkansson, who condu

An economist as a comic book character, podcaster, or cultural commentator? Andreas Bergh from LUSEM has chosen all three (and a bit more) as he, alongside his lectures on microeconomics and the welfare state, curiously explores various ways to reach the public. Here, he shares his best tips on where and why. Comics – because it’s so challenging. "It’s a challenge to simplify complex things. That’

Young people in India are often described as a well-educated and progressive force. How does that align with the right-wing populism sweeping through the country? Journalism student Linn Jönsson embarked on a reporting journey to Bombay, delving into religious and political conflicts of present-day India. In the Fall of 2023, Linn Jönsson received the SASNET travel grant for journalism students at

A few sharp minds working together for almost an entire summer. The task: to tackle the problem that a couple of days of work generates so much data, that it would take months to analyse. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction is a technique that allows us to obtain precise and detailed structural information of materials and their properties, and to fundamentally understand physical processes at the atomi

Cake and a packed Rydberg Hall set the tone when Fysicum celebrated its 75th anniversary. The Department of Physics invited guests to a party, and the audience was treated to a dizzying journey through history, presented by Professor Erik Swietlicki. When Lund University was founded in 1666, there was no faculty of natural sciences. Instead, physics was part of the faculty of philosophy, and for a

An international research team has found a new method for predicting entire pollen seasons, something that can help healthcare and allergy sufferers plan to reduce problems. No similar tool has previously been used in the area. The researchers also show that pollen seasons may be 60 per cent more severe in the future due to climate change. For about one in four Swedes, the arrival of spring and su

This summer, Lund University doctoral student Sofia Blomqvist will be investigating how pollinating insects such as bumblebees and solitary bees are faring in flower-rich roadside habitats. However, there is one problem: bumblebee nests are very difficult to find. Now she hopes to be able to train Ylle the dog to help her. Sofia Blomqvist’s objective is to repeat a previously criticized scientific
