Reaction Engineering introduces third-year chemical engineering students at Lund University to the principles of reactor analysis, sizing, and design. Like other similar courses, it was traditionally taught with a heavy emphasis on theory and the derivation of mathematical equations. Students completed numerous exercises but rarely developed an intuitive understanding of the combined effects of ph

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Sedan 80-talet har de gamla klassiska professionerna – läkare, jurister, ingenjörer, professorer – tappat mark. Deras inflytande i samhället har minskat och på deras arbetsplatser styr managementexperter och ekonomer. Hur har det blivit så? Professorn i sociologi Thomas Brante har studerat professionernas utveckling

The aggregation of the protein Amyloid-beta (Abeta) into plaques outside the nerve cells has been recognized in patients with Alzheimer’s disease since 1905. But eliminating the plaques has not helped patients so far. Still, Tomas Roos was recently recruited as a postdoc in our lab. He thinks that Abeta matters, but we may need to focus on the aggregates elsewhere. Earlier this spring, he defended

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the abnormal accumulation and spread of the tau protein in the brain. An international study can now show how tau spreads according to four distinct patterns that lead to different symptoms with different prognoses of the affected individuals. The study was published in Nature M

Ett ökat samarbete inom fakulteterna och en allmän vitalisering. Det är redan ett tydligt resultat av forskningsutvärderingen RQ20 som presenterades i mars. – Vi har fått syn på varandra, var en vanlig kommentar vid en rundringning bland dekanerna och forskningsansvariga. De flesta fakulteter uppmanades att identifiera sina styrkor, kraftsamla och synliggöra dem bättre utåt. Liksom att vara mer ak
