Anne L’Huillier ‒ a year on from the Nobel Prize in Physics

It has been a year since Anne L’Huillier became Lund University’s first Nobel Prize laureate. Since then, she has been trying to use the huge attention to stir interest in research and physics. She has also had to cope with the very peculiar experience of being a rock star of science, who gets asked for selfies in town.Watch an interview with Anne L’Huillier about life as a Nobel prize winner: Ann

Help your body outwit the reptile brain!

There are delicious smells emanating from the kitchen at the Malmö apartment of nutrition physiologist, Louise Brunkwall. Today, she is making pasta and vegetable sauce for lunch. A clean up before the interview with LUM means she can no longer find anything in the kitchen cupboards: “Usually there is always some kind of organised chaos here!” Louise Brunkwall knew from an early age that she wante

Green infrastructure – planning and designing a functioning nature

After climate change, biodiversity loss is the biggest environmental challenge facing the world today. The loss of plant and animal species also means a loss of the resources that humans obtain from well-functioning ecosystems. At Lund University, a project is underway in which researchers are studying how work to counteract these losses is carried out with so-called green infrastructure. In today

Old bishop Winstrup – returns to the Academy

He is our least known celebrity – a man of power who took the initiative for Lund University and was literally ‘prepared for both’. The 17th century bishop Peder Winstrup is an exciting historical person – and corpse – that will now be studied in a major interdisciplinary project. For many years, a beautiful coffin has stood in the crypt of the Cathedral. In it lies 17th century bishop Peder Winst

A new bioinfomatics pipeline solves a 50-year-old blood group puzzle

Currently, a lot is known about which genes are responsible for our individual blood groups, however not much is understood about how and why the levels of the blood group molecules differ between one person and another. And this can be important for blood transfusion safety. Now a research group in Lund has developed a toolbox that finds the answer – and in doing so, has solved a 50-year-old myst

Trendspotting Future Challenges in the Middle East

The war against terror is coming to an end. Has China become the victor? The Middle East seems to be moving towards more authoritarian regimes. A large influx of migrants and refugees and increasing population growth are likely to affect the region over the coming decades. And what about climate change? Is the Middle East becoming wetter, drier, or both? Watch five Middle East scholars trendspotti

AI improving understanding of migratory birds’ internal clock, map and compass

Different species of migrating bird have different genetically programmed procedures that signal when it is time to head off and when it is time to return. It may have to do with factors such as daylight, temperature, weather and the Earth’s magnetic field. These migration programmes have been studied before, but new technology and computational capacity make it possible to process large amounts o

New dedicated lab for tomorrow’s aviation fuel

The lab that will take us closer to the aviation fuel of the future has now opened. The Jet Engine Lab at the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) makes it possible to conduct full-scale studies on how engines are affected by new fuels – knowledge that will become increasingly important when fossil-based aviation fuels are phased out and replaced by more sustainable alternatives. The Jet Engine Lab is at
