För att skapa en funktionell stadsmiljö för människa, miljö och biologisk mångfald behöver städer göra noggranna övervägningar. Att förtäta städer kan vara positivt för exempelvis minskad biltrafik och bättre service till fler människor. Samtidigt kan det ske på bekostnad av grönytor och människors hälsa. Johanna Alkan Olsson är lektor vid CEC och har under lång tid forskat på dessa dilemman. Idag

De senaste 50 åren har mängden vatten utan syre mer än fyrdubblats i de öppna haven. I kustnära vatten, inklusive flodmynningar och hav, har områden med syrebrist mer än tiodubblats sedan 1950. Att skydda känsliga arter, ta kontroll på övergödning och klimatförändringar samt förbättra spårteknik är några lösningar på problemet, enligt forskare från bland annat Lunds universitet. - Tillräckligt med

Populistiska och EU-skeptiska partier ser ut att gå framåt i det kommande EU-valet, något som kan påverka Europas stöd till Ukraina. Men hur mycket och i vilken riktning är inte självklart. Statsvetaren Jonathan Polk har tillsammans med europeiska kollegor släppt en ny studie om sambanden mellan populism, EU-skepticism och de politiska partiernas stöd till Ukraina. När Ryssland invaderade Ukraina

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed an algorithm that combines data from a simple blood test and brief memory tests, to predict with great accuracy who will develop Alzheimer's disease in the future. The findings are published in Nature Medicine. Approximately 20-30% of patients with Alzheimer's disease are wrongly diagnosed within specialist healthcare, and diagnostic work-up

In a study led by Lund University and the Amsterdam University Medical Center, researchers used PET to analyse aggregates of tau pathology in more than 12,000 people from all over the world. The study – the largest ever of its kind – examines the connection between genetic predisposition, gender and age in relation to tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. The study is published in Nature Neuroscie

Delving into the realm where light and matter converge, Mattias Bertolino's embarks on a theoretical exploration of photoionization. Focusing on multiphoton ionization of noble gas atoms, using a mixture of extreme-ultraviolet and infrared light, he explores the intricate interplay between light and matter. He aims to improve our understanding of the fundamental interactions between light and matt

At the time of the atmospheric nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s, the level of carbon-14 in the atmosphere increased dramatically. Now researchers from Lund University have developed a method for measuring the carbon-14 content in atherosclerotic plaques in patients. The measurements reveal how old and dangerous the plaques really are. "On the one hand it’s important to find out wheth

Just like self-driving cars, we can expect autonomous ships to become more common in the coming years. However, two safety challenges which need to be solved along the way, and which are different for ships compared to cars, are navigation without GPS and remote control. In his research, Mårten Lager has developed user interfaces for remote control of ships, as well as positioning using water dept

When planning for food in times of crisis – what foodstuffs do we imagine? Many think of tin cans and freeze-dried food, but the fact is that if a crisis occurs, it is not stockpiled cans that will save us. Food preparedness is a subject being taken up by researchers from the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) at Almedalen Week, one of their reflections being  how local growing of crops that do not need
