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

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Is there any underlying biological explanation for why men are responsible for such a large proportion of sexual assaults compared to women? Or, from a biological point of view, could women just as easily have been the ones to commit this type of harassment and assault, if the social and historical power structure wer

Han Somsen has newly been appointed professor in environmental law at the Faculty of Law. He is best known for his recommendation that bird-killing cats should be kept indoors. “Humans see themselves as the kings of the hill, which extends to their cats. If you question this, many people get very angry. I got death threats,” says Han Somsen. Han Somsen’s latest position was as professor at Tilburg

Covid-19 and the subsequent closure of universities around the world have meant that we all quickly had to learn how to teach remotely.

What happens when we get out of the driver's seat and our vehicles become autonomous? Mathematician Viktor Larsson is developing methods to enable cars and drones to see their surroundings. This is his insight into the self-driving present and future. Cameras, satnav, laser, radar and sensors.

Vid besvär av bland annat oregelbunden hjärtrytm, yrsel eller svimning kan EKG behöva registreras under flera dygn – långtids-EKG – som sedan granskas för att hitta avvikelser i hjärtrytmen. Arbetet är både tids- och resurskrävande. I en stor internationell klinisk studie har forskare därför testat om AI kan ersätta människan för analys och bedöming av långtids-EKG.
