It was during a conference that Pouya Movahed Rad first heard about the small foundation Norrsken Mind. Together with colleagues, he wrote an application. The result: SEK 6.7 million in three years. Congratulations, what are you going to do with the money?"We have received just over SEK 6.7 million to conduct a pilot study that examines the potential of psilocybin in the treatment of anorexia nerv

A few sharp minds working together for almost an entire summer. The task: to tackle the problem that a couple of days of work generates so much data, that it would take months to analyse. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction is a technique that allows us to obtain precise and detailed structural information of materials and their properties, and to fundamentally understand physical processes at the atomi

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By analysing almost daily water samples taken from the same river from 1940 until today, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have confirmed their hypothesis that the browning of lakes is primarily due to the increase in coniferous forests, as well as rainfall and sulphur deposits. The study was carried out on the

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers have now managed to pinpoint what happens when light is absorbed by extremely small nanoclusters of silver atoms. The results may have useful application in the development of biosensors and in imaging. By combining chemistry and nanotechnology, the research community in recent years has developed a kind o

Can dragonflies migrate thousands of miles across the Indian Ocean, from India via the Maldives to Africa, and back again? An international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has used models and simulations to find out if the hypothesis could be true. In 2009, marine biologist Charles Anderson put forward a hypothesis after observing globe skimmer dragonflies (Pantala flavescens) on th

Biologist Emma Kritzberg is leading the work on the faculty’s Core Curriculum. She describes the initiative as both exciting and rewarding, not least thanks to the many interactions with colleagues across the organisation.Just over a year and a half ago, biologist Emma Kritzberg took on the task of developing the Faculty of Science’s Core Curriculum for doctoral education.

Since February, Professor Glyn Williams has been working with us. We were curious about who Glyn is and what his research is about, so we decided to ask him a few questions to get to know him a little better. Hi, Glyn! And welcome to Lund University. Which university did you recently come from?– Thank you! I came from University of Sheffield, where I worked from 2006, having previously held posts

Controlling smartphones by a simple swipe of your hand is the latest innovation to be introduced to phone owners. However, radar sensors with higher accuracy would take the concept from gimmick to practical usefulness, according to researchers at Lund University in Sweden. They have developed a method that could detect much finer gestures – while also using a lot less power – opening up to new app

This year's prestigious Segerfalk lecture will be given by Eero Castrén, Research Director at the Neuroscience Centre at the University of Helsinki. In his research on brain plasticity, he has discovered clues about which mechanisms in the brain are affected by antidepressants – and they could explain why these medicines work. Eero Castrén conducts research on brain plasticity and is primarily int

On the first day of the COP28 climate change conference in Dubai, a formal decision was taken to establish a loss and damage fund to support developing countries to deal with loss and damage from climate change. A pragmatic success for climate justice, says sustainability professor Emily Boyd, who now hopes that Sweden will follow suit with promises of financial support. Emily Boyd, director and p

Lymphedema after head and neck cancer is considerably more common than previously assumed and can persist long after cancer treatment has finished. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered that patients with a low level of physical activity face a higher risk of developing lymphedema.

The workshop will help you sort out what you need and must do as an employer regarding both the handling of cases of victimisation and harassment, and the preventive work against victimisation and harassment. You will also be clearer on what kind of support you can get and where to get it. During the workshop you will also get a walkthrough of the legalties of victimisation, harassment and sexual

PhD student Lina Lefstad is passionate about working towards just climate change mitigation. She is excited about how we as a society can use CCS technology in the most just and effective way for the technology to genuinely contribute to decarbonisation and emissions reductions.

Huntington’s disease is hereditary, genetic and usually begins between the ages of 30 and 50. In Sweden, around 1,000 people have the diagnosis and several thousand live with the risk of getting the disease. Even more people have a connection to the disease as its symptoms also affect those close to the patient to a high degree. The disease leads to premature death and there are no treatments that

Now an evaluation of the conference awaits, but the feeling is that most people experienced it as a successful event.
