While Primula is down, it is important that everyone manually documents the cases that they normally register in Primula themselves, so that the information can be registered correctly afterwards, when we regain access to the system. To ensure this works the Faculty management has come to the conclusion that we at the Faculty of Medicine should follow this routine as long as the shutdown lasts. La

Our researchers, Devrim Umut Aslan and Cecilia Fredriksson, have just released their book about ongoing transformations in city retail. We asked Devrim to tell us a little about the book. This book is based on the changing relationship between retail and cities. In recent decades, retail has changed in several fundamental ways. Traditional stores are in a transformation phase and are now competing

A research group at Lund University has studied how a molecular sensor located in the blood vessel wall, controls how the vessel compensates for high blood pressure. As we age, the sensor deteriorates, which can worsen vascular damage caused by high blood pressure and consequently lead to secondary diseases affecting the heart, brain, or other organs. In mice, the researchers demonstrate that the

Researchers at Lund University, together with colleagues at the NIST Synchrotron Facility in the USA, have mapped on an atomic level what happens in a virus particle when the temperature is raised. "When the temperature rises, the virus's genetic material changes its form and density, becoming more fluid-like, which leads to its rapid injection into the cell," says Alex Evilevitch who led the stud

I and many others are ambivalent when it comes to the ranking of the world’s universities. But Lund University has made the ranking lists and that does have an impact, at the very least for international marketing purposes. We must be active, rather than passive, in relation to the ranking bodies. Small margins can make a university climb or tumble down the lists, so there is a need to be modest w

Ten Ukrainian medical students, ten supervisors from the Faculty, for ten weeks. Initiator and professor, David Gisselsson Nord, is happy that the pilot project in medical research is up and going. Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine has led to serious disruptions to Ukraine's medical education system. Some universities have suffered extensive destruction and have had to evacuate their campus

LU managed the transition to digital teaching. But the spring Coronavirus crisis had a negative impact on students in Lund. They found the digital exams to be stressful and sometimes unfair. This is what emerges from the student unions’ surveys whose results have now been compiled. In late spring, seven students’ unions sent out seven somewhat different surveys. 1900 students responded. The questi

Like learning to fly as the plane takes off.   Across the entire University, teaching staff are grappling with the transition to digital education and assessment at record speed in the unique situation caused by the coronavirus. The initial phase includes long workdays and getting the available digital tools to work in a critical situation. “We have grabbed hold of this. A lot must happen quickly

There is growing evidence that Western welfare standards are not generalizable to the rest of the planet if environmental concerns, such as resource depletion or climate change, are considered. A new interdisciplinary anthology by researchers from Lund University raises the question of what is required to make welfare societies ecologically sustainable. Oksana Mont, professor at The International

Diego Galafassi, researcher at LUCSUS, is leading a new research project on emerging media practices. Using co-creation, and a practice-led approach, the aim is to analyse how emerging media - innovative media forms at the intersection of art, science and technology - can support transformations to realise the sustainable development goals. Key areas to explore are challenges, opportunities, risks
