This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. 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 sustain
Each year, around 350 children in Sweden are diagnosed with cancer. Thanks to progress in research and treatment, six out of seven children today survive. But unlike cancer in adults, we don't know what causes most childhood cancers to develop. This spring Barncancerfonden, the Swedish Childhood Cancer Foundation, awarded SEK 64 million to 29 researchers across the country. The funding includes po

The glymphatic system, which helps clear waste products from the brain, was discovered about a decade ago. Nicholas Bèchet’s project shines light on how it works in Alzheimer’s disease. On June 17, he defends his PhD thesis supervised by Iben Lundgaard at MultiPark. Here, he tells about his discoveries and why we should not compromise on our sleep. Tell us about your research! The glymphatic syste

The research areas remain the same, but our perspective on them has changed. This is how consumption researchers Carys Egan-Wyer and Emma Samsioe describe the development in retail research over the past ten years. “In one of our recent reports, we call it 'Retail as unusual.' There is no longer a normal state in trade, no 'Business as usual.' Everything has become more uncertain,” says Carys Egan

In a recent paper, Fredrik N G Andersson explores the connection between economic inequality and the environment. He discovers that the relationship is complex, varying by time, location, and the specific environmental indicator. The most pronounced correlation is found between income inequality and energy use, which subsequently impacts greenhouse gas emissions. Structural shifts in the consumpti

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Nervskador drabbar ungefär varannan diabetiker. Ju längre tid man haft sjukdomen desto större är risken. Neuropati börjar ofta i tårna, framfoten och sprider sig uppåt. Symtomen är många. Några av dem är nedsatt känsel parallellt med överkänslighet vid beröring, kuddkänsla när man går, förtvining av fotens muskler s

Research in particle physics often relies on sizable, cutting-edge computing resources for analysing large datasets, producing simulation samples, or developing and running complex machine learning models. While particle physics has been a pioneer in dealing with many “big science” issues and raised the stakes in the Large Hadron Collider era,today it is by no means isolated. More and more researc
