Set a goal for your training for one to four months and pay in SEK 1,000. You get your money back if you achieve your goal. Crazy? Perhaps, but in a study by Professor of Economics Erik Wengström and his colleagues, the incentive proved to be quite effective compared with the control groups. “I’ve had a long-standing interest in how people behave in strategic situations and if you look at it from

Many of the University’s researchers are publishing fantastic research that has been done with the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI). Many are curious to test out AI to improve, simplify or speed up at least a part of the research process. At the same time, many are asking “what am I allowed to use AI for?” The starting point when using AI in research is to follow the basic principles of

Archaeologist Greer Jarrett’s research focuses on reconstructing Viking sailing routes and cartography. To do so, he learnt to sail boats similar to those sailed by the Vikings and set off out to sea. He likens the sailors of that time to today’s extreme athletes. “I started a fairly theoretical doctoral thesis on reconstructing Viking sailing routes, but I wanted practical experience from a sailo

Ice sheets, snow and the ocean as far as the eye can see. No shipping vessels or people in sight, and only polar bears for company. The icebreaker Oden sails between Svalbard and Greenland, and this spring, doctoral student Lovisa Nilsson joined the ship to study the transition from winter to summer in the Arctic, and how soot affects the melting of sea ice. For six weeks, the spaces onboard Oden

Researchers at Lund University and Washington University have identified a blood marker that reflects the amount of Alzheimer’s pathology in the brain. This discovery may play a key role in determining who is most likely to benefit from the new Alzheimer’s drugs. In brief:A newly discovered blood marker, MTBR-tau243, can reveal how much Alzheimer’s disease pathology is present in the brain. The hi

At work, Julia Weber’s focus is on insects and other pollinators, and their survival. At home, it is her cat Hera who has grabbed attention. When Postnord announced a competition to find cats to grace their new stamps, Julia Weber did as over 18,000 other cat owners and sent in a photo along with a short description of her feline friend. The jury could not resist the adventurous Hera, who was one

Swedish universities and higher education institutions condemn the violence in Iran in which security forces have opened fire on protesting students. Collaborations and exchanges with Iranian universities, researchers and students may be in jeopardy. So argue Karin Aggestam and Ronny Berndtsson at the Centre for Advanced Middle Eastern Studies, CMES. Karin Aggestam is the director of CMES and coor

The coast is changing. The sea is encroaching further inland, and the shoreline of childhood memory no longer looks the same. Climate change is impacting beaches and the sea, but time is also a factor. Someone who knows a lot about changes to the Skåne coastline is Caroline Hallin. She is a coastal engineer whose research focuses on erosion, storm surges and nature-adapted coastal protection at th

It can take a long time between words and action at the University, sometimes a little too long. This is one of the reasons the University management has developed a platform for strategic work. It speaks to what is most important to the University right now and will help it to act much faster as the world changes. Pandemic, war in Europe, fake news, increased polarisation at home and abroad and,

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har i en ny observationsstudie tittat på samtliga fall av hjärttransplantationer hos barn under 18 år i Norden mellan 1986 och 2023. Totalt 597 barn ingick i studien, varav 461 transplanterades. Resultaten visar att överlevnaden ökat markant – en utveckling som forskarna kopplar till tekniska framsteg, avancerad teknik och bättre rutiner i vården. Kort om studien:597

Intresset för universitetets allmänna handlingar ökar. Att kunna begära ut myndighetshandlingar är en viktig del av demokratin. Baksidan är att handläggningen kan vara resurskrävande och i vissa fall ta flera veckor. De senaste åren har mejlen till Universitetsarkivet med frågor om allmänna handlingar stadigt ökat. Från 1 906 mejl år 2019 till 3 494 förra året.Det visar statistik som LUM tagit del
