Why are there hundreds of jumbled human bones in the ground at Uppåkra? That is one of the mysteries that archaeologists at Lund University hope to be able to solve in the next few years. They will be aided by the latest DNA technology. A quiet calm rests over Uppåkra, just outside Lund. The only sound under the enormous tent canvas that has been hung just next to an old pigsty – which incidentall

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Att vara utsatt för övergrepp under barndomen innebär en markant ökning av risken att utveckla fetma i vuxen ålder. Det visar en meta-analys av tidigare gjorda studier, som omfattar totalt 112 000 studiedeltagare. Analysen är gjord av forskare på Karolinska Institutet och är publicerad i tidskriften Obesity Reviews.

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Psykoterapi mot panikångest ger goda resultat och effekten av behandlingen håller i sig. Det visar den största långtidsstudie som någonsin gjorts i Sverige. Två år efter behandling var 70 procent av patienterna tydligt förbättrade och 45 procent hade inga eller minimala symptom.

Nu har forskare hittat en alternativ väg för att framställa atomer av det väldigt tunga grundämnet livermorium. Den nya metoden öppnar för möjligheten att skapa ett annat grundämne som skulle kunna bli världens hittills tyngsta: nummer 120. Jakten på nya grundämnen bygger på drömmen om att lyckas hitta en variant som är tillräckligt stabil för att kunna vara långlivad och inte sönderfalla meddetsa

Många av universitetets forskare publicerar fantastisk forskning som har gjorts med hjälp av artificiell intelligens (AI). Många är nyfikna på att testa AI för att förbättra, förenkla eller påskynda åtminstone någon del av forskningsprocessen. Samtidigt ställer sig många frågan ”vad får man använda AI till?” Utgångspunkten när du använder AI i forskningen är att följa grundprinciperna för forsknin

For a researcher to be successful, he or she not only needs to produce good research – it also has to gain exposure. However, there is competition for space in scientific and popular science journals. This has led to the growth of a grey area with unprofessional journals that take payment from researchers who want their work to appear. Kristoffer Holmqvist recommends the information on the Univers

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. USV is the umbrella term for the University’s specialised centres which are gradually moving into the faculties. But the process is not painless – the specialised centres are keen to safeguard their identities and their low overhead costs. The faculties and departments, on the other hand, do not want to take on financ

Trump’s attack on US universities and their research is actually a broader attack on democratic values, according to historian of knowledge Johan Östling. By destroying them, the Trump administration is paving the way for a very different kind of society.  “We need to understand the breadth and depth of this offensive,” says Johan Östling.Could you put Trump’s actions against universities in the U
