Camilla Nothhaft has shown this in a thesis presented at Örebro University. She now works a

How credible are research results? A new biology study shows that the same data can give different answers depending on the method of analysis used – raising questions about the stability of scientific conclusions. To strengthen credibility, researchers need to be better at accounting for their methods. Ever since the 17th century, when modern scientific research was born, methods have been refine

Lund University has a large and broad range of research infrastructure on offer. Several are world-leading. Unfortunately, however, in many cases the knowledge among researchers of what is on offer is low. “There are many researchers who are unaware of what the University has and what is accessible or how the infrastructure can help their research”, says Kajsa M Paulsson who is infrastructure coor

Climate research in the Arctic is being hit hard as collaboration with Russian researchers is put on ice. “It’s impossible to get an overall picture of the Arctic without looking at Russia. If this becomes permanent, we will be thrown back 20 years,” says Margareta Johansson, who leads the unique research project INTERACT, which incorporates researchers from all eight Arctic countries.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The bad news about malignant melanoma is that the disease is increasing more rapidly than most other types of cancer. The good news is that it is easy to cure, as long as it is detected in time.

Photo by M.Accelertor on Unsplash It is not necessarily the students who need to join a lecture via Zoom; sometimes the lecturer is the one taking part remotely. This is very practical for guest lecturers who are very far away and can thereby avoid a long trip. It also opens up opportunities for simple collaborations between higher education institutions. The solution will be different depending o

Bakterien 'Staphylococcus aureus', den gula stafylokocken, är vanligt förekommande i vår omgivning, på huden och i näsan. Den kan orsaka lindriga infektioner, men också allvarlig infektion om bakterien kommer in i blodbanan; vilket drabbar ungefär 2000 personer årligen i Sverige. Bakterierna kan slå sig ner i kroppen, till exempel i leder eller på hjärtklaffar och kräver vanligen minst 10 dagar in
