As part of current efforts to work towards sustainable development, find solutions to curb greenhouse gas emissions, and adapt cities to the effects of climate change, such as floods and extreme heat, there are high hopes that nature-based solutions (NBS) can support the transformation needed. Based on the knowledge that implementation of NBS is still emerging and constrained by various barriers,

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

Earlier this fall, Milda Pucetaite was one of the 400 European researchers to receive an ERC Starting Grant for her project “Tracing single-cell scale chemical signalling between interacting soil fungi". As Milda is a member of BECC, we were curious to know a little bit more about her grant. The ERC Starting Grant is intended for early-career researchers and the only selection criterion is scienti

The dissertation is called: Statistical Aspects of Group Dynamics – Multilevel Methods for Emergent Processes in Teams. She explains that the thesis develops new statistical methods to help researchers better capture how teams evolve. “They are not static entities: trust can build or erode, members can leave or join, and events can strengthen or disrupt collaboration. Understanding these dynamics

Last Tuesday, our PhD Candidate Lisa Heldt “nailed” her freshly printed PhD thesis. This traditional “spikning” takes place three weeks and three days before the official defense and it involves the PhD Candidate nailing (att spika in Swedish) their physical thesis to a public board where it can be read and scrutinized by the public before the official defense ceremony. At the same time, the spikn

When the snow is gone, it does not take too long before a familiar spring sound reappears - the bumblebee buzz. Since bumblebees are well adapted to cold climates, many of the species are negatively affected by a warmer climate. Researchers at Lund University now ask for the public's help in reporting the first bumblebee queens of the spring, to be able to map how earlier springs affect bumblebees

Steven Curtis & Matthias Lehner publish open access journal article that proposes a logically-consistent definition of the sharing economy that prioritises sustainability. The sharing economy is largely promoted to facilitate access over ownership, which proponents of the sharing economy suggest leads to reduced resource consumption. However, the purported sustainability potential of the sharing e

In order to be able to prescribe the appropriate dose of physical activity to patients, healthcare professionals need to consider a range of individual factors. There is a need to facilitate the assessment of aerobic capacity i. e. maximal oxygen uptake capacity (VO2max), as well as to calculate the intensity of training according to the WHO recommendations for physical activity. Now, researchers
