Mobile money is a digital financial innovation enabling electronic payments and transfers through mobile phones. It has proven to be a convenient, safe and cheap way for money exchange in developing countries where access to traditional banking services is limited. This thesis aims to explore why Small and Medium Enterprises in Zambia do not adopt mobile money in an otherwise well-developed region

New research at Lund University in Sweden can now show what Stone Age people actually ate in southern Scandinavia 10 000 years ago. The importance of fish in the diet has proven to be greater than expected. So, if you want to follow a Paleo diet - you should quite simply eat a lot of fish. Osteologists Adam Boethius and Torbjörn Ahlström have studied the importance of various protein sources in th

By injecting a solution of nanoparticles around the heart, a temporary heart stimulator self-assembles, which can correct heart arrhythmia in emergency situations with the help of an external power source. After treatment, the electrode spontaneously disappears from the body. The study was conducted on animals. Arrhythmia occurs when there are disturbances in the heart’s electrical signals, causin

The year is 2072, and the worst storm in two hundred years is about to hit Scania, in the south of Sweden. In Skanör-Falsterbo, a family is celebrating Christmas when the storm alarm sounds. The waves draw closer to the house, and the family dash towards the nearby church. What happens next is the result of many decades of decisions: did we work together, or did the lines of conflict become even d

The new excavations in Uppåkra are at the forefront of cutting edge archaeological techniques. By combining big data, data modelling and DNA sequencing, researchers are currently solving significant parts of a historical puzzle. Perhaps we will learn whether the Justinianic Plague, the forerunner of the Black Death, reached Uppåkra. Until now, this has been uncertain. Torbjörn Ahlström, profes

Lars-Erik Wernersson, professor of nanoelectronics, has received an ERC Advanced Grant for the integration of new materials into the high-performance, energy-efficient transistors and circuit solutions of the future. Silicon is the current material of choice for most transistors and other components. The problem is that in certain cases these parts consume a lot of energy and get hot, which can le

The sound of tawny owls makes young European robins eat less during their southward migration. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows how the threat from nocturnal predators affects the birds’ behaviour – and by extension their survival. When young robins embark on their first southward migration in the autumn, they make regular stops along the way to rest and replenish their energy rese

The robot at the hospital somewhere in Sweden is connected and ready to operate. The surgeon, who is in another country, controls the advanced surgery. This is the future: wireless surgery via the internet. But will we be able to trust the speed and security of this wireless connection through the cloud?It should work, with the help of the faster 5G technology and by bringing the cloud closer to t

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 to another. This can be important for blood transfusion safety. Now a research group at Lund University in Sweden has developed a toolbox that finds the answer – and in doing so, has solved a

It is not just the environment and the economy that are threatened by a warmer climate, but also culture and traditions around the word. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden and the University of Queensland in Australia have mapped what little is known about how climate change is eroding local knowledge and cultural heritage. “We risk losing the memory of Indigenous people’s ways of life witho

Arctic climate change research relies on field measurements and samples that are too scarce, and patchy at best, according to a comprehensive review study from Lund University in Sweden. The researchers looked at thousands of scientific studies, and found that around 30% of cited studies were clustered around only two research stations in the vast Arctic region. The Arctic is said to be warming at

Nell from SwedenWhy do you think it is important to study archaeology? "I think it’s important to study archaeology because there is so much of our heritage that is still undiscovered. I believe that we humans, as a society and community, really need to know our history before moving forward. There’s so much we can learn from the past which could save us from making mistakes in the future!"What do
