Kan sex veckors cykelpendling ­mellan Södra Sandby och Lund få LUM:s r­eporter att förvandlas från soffpotatis till supercyklist? Jag och tjugo andra testcyklister började den sex veckor långa prövningen en måndag i september – en dag när regnet vräkte ner. Men trots den mindre charmiga väderleken vid starten har min tid som testcyklist mellan Södra Sandby och Lund gett mersmak. Det finns något ma

Under årets KEFU-dag gavs en rad infallsvinklar på vad det innebär att ge, ha och ta ansvar för att vi ska kunna ha ett välfungerande samhälle. Även i år filmades alla föreläsningar och de kan nu ses på KEFU:s YouTube-kanal. Johan Wester var liksom förra året moderator för dagen, som inleddes med en föreläsning av Erik Angner, professor i praktisk filosofi vid Stockholms universitet och disputerad

Why does Lund University manage farms in Skåne? It’s a matter of tradition. From 1666 and for a long time afterwards the entire University was funded by the farms that dowager queen Hedvig Eleonora donated – known as “akademiska hemman” – the academic homesteads. These are still managed by the University and the current value of the properties is approximately SEK 700 million. The Akademihemman Fo

You are at the shop to buy food for the weekend. The shop’s security guard is keeping a close eye on you and you start to get nervous. He approaches you and you feel that you are starting to break out in a sweat. What the heck does he really want? This is not happening for real. It is just a situation in a virtual world, tailor-made for violent criminals to train them to control their aggression.

David Gisselsson Nord and Tony Ingesson both love spy novels and have a nerdy interest in history. Their shared curiosity resulted in an interdisciplinary collaboration about how it might be possible to inspire smarter cancer treatment with the help of methods from espionage and intelligence analysis. Tony Ingesson finds it fairly easy to show a bit of attitude in front of the camera. David Gissel

How long does it take to comfort someone? Does an egg need to be fried rather than boiled? LUM invited home care researchers from the School of Social Work and the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) for a conversation. They are meeting for the first time; their discussions cover stress, responsibility and participation. Their common goal is better home care, but they approach the issue from different pe

Pathologists and coroners are now commonplace in crime novels and TV crime series and are often depicted as slightly odd people. Elisabet Englund has worked at the Division of Pathology in Lund for over 40 years. She has often been told that she is a little ‘too happy’ to be a pathologist. “Yes, there is a stereotype of people who work with dead people, which perhaps contributes to the mystificati

Vanlig acetylsalicylsyra som är lätt blodförtunnande, två sorters blodtryckssänkande medel och ett blodfettssänkande. Allt i samma piller med syftet att minska antalet hjärtinfarkter, stroke och hjärtsvikt. Låter det vettigt? Ja, i alla fall enligt den internationella forskargrupp som nu publicerat sina resultat i den ansedda tidskriften the Lancet. Fungerar det? Ja, antalet hjärtinfarkter, stroke

Vad händer när en ung person direkt efter att ha fått diagnosen typ 1 diabetes behandlas med den senaste tekniken, det vill säga kontinuerlig glukosmätning och insulinpump, en så kallade konstgjord bukspottkörtel. Många hävdar på goda grunder att det är bättre än den traditionella behandlingen med flera injektioner varje dag. Men riktigt handfasta vetenskapliga bevis för det finns inte. Nu ska for

Kost och träning kan hjälpa gravida kvinnor med övervikt och fetma att begränsa sin viktökning under graviditeten, visar den hittills största amerikanska studien i sitt slag. Rönen publiceras i den vetenskapliga tidskriften Obesity. Många överviktiga och feta kvinnor går upp alltför mycket i vikt under sin graviditet vilket ytterligare försämrar deras redan förhöjda risk för allvarliga komplikatio

En svensk multicenterstudie ledd av forskare vid Lunds universitet visar ett samband mellan låg fiberkonsumtion och förekomst av instabila högriskplack i kranskärlen, sådana som kan utlösa propp och orsaka hjärtinfarkt. Studien kopplar också kostmönstret till plackens sammansättning, alltså hur potentiellt farliga de är. Forskarna har med hjälp av avancerad hjärtavbildning, datortomografi, undersö

That life is not fair is hardly news. But that inequalities are at risk of increasing as we seek to improve the health of the population is perhaps unexpected. Health economics is a way of evaluating the potential health benefits of different interventions, setting them against the economic cost and their impact on society. Over two million people in Sweden are currently living with cardiovascular

You rush into the supermarket; your mother-in-law is coming for dinner. But which products end up in your shopping basket and why? Researchers have previously tracked eye movements to understand which products attract you in a shop. In order to get closer to the truth, they now want to use new computational models in which the brain’s cognitive processes also play a major role. As you stand in the

Local currencies may arise when there is a clear need for certain products and services in a local area and where the competences to produce them exist but the lack of traditional money puts obstacles in the way. The lack of money might be the result of pandemics, war, natural disasters, financial crises or poverty. Ester Barinaga, professor of entrepreneurship at the School of Economics and Manag

Farshid Jalalvand has a PhD in infection biology and vaccine development, and he has appeared frequently in the media during the debate on the Covid-19 vaccine. “When you work, as I do, with vaccines and you understand how they work, it feels important to try to explain it so that people can take decisions based on solid evidence”, he says.

Ett stick i fingret är allt som krävs för att delta i studien Triad, som screenar skånska barn för tre besläktade sjukdomar. En tidig upptäckt av typ 1-diabetes, celiaki och tyreoidit är viktigt för att undvika allvarliga besvär. Målet med studien är att etablera effektiva screeningmetoder för de tre sjukdomarna. De autoimmuna sjukdomarna typ 1-diabetes, celiaki och tyreoidit är nära besläktade. E
