Hello Rebecca Baxter, moderator on SWEAH Alumni Interdisciplinary Network, SAIN’s panel discussion at NKG June 11. A few questions before the big conference starts next week. A lot of ageing events are arranged for researchers - why participate at NKG in particular?– The NKG is an excellent opportunity to connect with people who are at the forefront of ageing research in the Nordics, and internati

Red-backed shrikes fly thousands of kilometres to reach Africa – and they do so with astonishing precision. Aided by new technology, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have been able to track the birds’ journeys in detail. It turns out that they may have a more complex genetic migration programme than researchers have previously been able to show. “We can now follow a bird’s location through

The International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics, IIIEE, is taking the lead on open, month-long online courses, known as MOOCs. The investment in MOOCs has been quite a success. In recent years, every sixth student has stated that the online courses influenced them to apply for one of the IIIEE’s traditional courses or programmes. That MOOCs attract students to study programmes i

In March this year, LINXS received a new organisational placement within the Faculty of Science. Rather than being part of the Department of Chemistry, LINXS is now established as a separate unit reporting directly to the Dean. The decision follows a strategic review and an external evaluation of the organisation conducted last year, both of which yielded very positive results.Established in 2017,

The Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies believes that the best decisions come from blending fresh perspectives with institutional memory. That’s why the institute doesn't replace its entire board at once. Board members are appointed by the Lund University Vice Chancellor for three-year terms, with the possibility of serving an additional three years. This December, the institute expressed war

A tiny insect that lives on snow has revealed an unexpected survival trick: it can generate its own heat to withstand sub-zero temperatures. The finding sheds new light on how life endures in extreme environments. The snow fly – a winter-active crane fly – moves across snow at temperatures between 0 and −7°C. Conditions that would be lethal to most insects instead leave this species active, thanks

Øystein Opedal was one of 494 European researchers to receive an ERC Starting Grant for his project “POLLCLIM: Plant adaptation in a changing pollination climate“. As Øystein is a member of BECC, we were curious to know a little bit more about his grant. The ERC Starting Grant is intended for early-career researchers and the only selection criterion is scientific excellence. After undergoing peer
