Cycling becomes a lot harder if you don’t oil the bicycle chain! Similarly, you can’t cut metal, turn metal on a lathe or press sheet metal without lubricant. Previously in engineering works there was a flow of lubricant that is hazardous for health and the environment, but now the technology exists to reduce consumption of lubricant. In time, the mineral oils used today may be replaced by vegetab

This autumn, LU Estates and Akademiska Hus will measure how much certain premises rented by the University are actually used. The measurements will be conducted by sensors placed at the entrances and exits to some offices and in lecture halls. The aim is to improve efficiency and reduce the need for premises. Digitalisation and the increase in working from home have led to offices being used less

In a major study of hereditary breast cancer, a global network of researchers (including some from Lund University) has identified over 350 faults in DNA that increase an individual’s risk of developing the disease. The researchers believe that these faults can affect as many as 190 genes. Published in Nature Genetics

In addition to memory problems and other cognitive symptoms, most people with Alzheimer’s disease also suffer from mental health issues. It has long been unclear whether these occur because of tissue changes in the brain, or whether they represent psychological reactions to cognitive symptoms. A study from Lund University in Sweden has provided new insight, and is published in Biological Psychiatr

A large study led by Lund University in Sweden has shown that people with Alzheimer's disease can now be identified before they experience any symptoms. It is now also possible to predict who will deteriorate within the next few years. The study is published in Nature Medicine, and is very timely in light of the recent development of new drugs for Alzheimer's disease. It has long been known that t

Our city centres and their development are a subject of constant debate. Ulf Johansson suggests that, if we let the market decide, our city centres will eventually be emptied of retail. Most recently, representatives from our food retailers suggested to municipalities that regulations on establishment locations be relaxed, advocating for the mantra of letting the market rule (Dagligvarunytt 2022a,

Around 80% of people with Down syndrome develop Alzheimer’s disease, often when they are between 40 and 50 years old. A study led by Lund University in Sweden has shown that a simple blood test can detect Alzheimer’s disease in people with Down syndrome with a high degree of certainty. The findings are important for several reasons, not least the ability to make a correct diagnosis without invasiv

En ny studie från Lunds universitet visar att flyttfåglar flyger mest effektivt i måttlig hastighet – precis det tempo de använder under sina långa resor över kontinenterna. Nu i slutet av sommaren, när näktergalarna lämnar Sverige för södra Afrika, flyger de inte i full fart. I stället flyger de i jämn takt – och enligt studien från Lund är det ingen slump.Flyttfåglar tillbringar hundratals timma

För första gången i universitetets historia finns nu ett rektorsbeslut om hur vi ska arbeta med pedagogisk meritering på hela universitetet, vilket gick att läsa om i förra LU-nytt. Vid hälften av våra fakulteter har det sedan några år funnits möjligheter att ansöka om att bli utnämnd till excellent lärare eller liknande.
