The Boards of the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) and the Faculty of Science have decided to aim for a more modest establishment in Science Village, i.e. the area between Max IV and ESS. They justify the decision by the fact that the Departments of Physics and Chemistry would incur high rental costs if both research and education were to move, says Annika Mårtensson, assistant dean for research progr

Superconductors are materials that can conduct electricity without resistance and are used in electromagnets, antennas and power lines. Researchers have now studied a multifaceted superconductor that exhibits a so-called vortex lattice when exposed to a magnetic field. The discovery could revolutionise technological development. Smart superconductors are predicted to change our everyday lives fund

Patients are often asked to rate their feelings using a rating scale, when talking to psychologists or doctors about their mental health. This is currently how depression and anxiety are diagnosed. However, a new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that allowing patients to describe their experience using their own words - is potentially viewed as more precise and preferred by the patients.

Once again, we are now seeing an increase in the spread of infection, in particular in Europe; this week, the Public Health Agency of Sweden announced new recommendations to avoid crowding, among other things. We are still offering on-campus education but everyone is to avoid crowding and large gatherings. We are carefully monitoring the situation and trying to keep the organisation updated on any

Lund University administers a range of awards, some well-known and well-used, others more obscure. In order to bring greater clarity to this broad flora, the Vice-Chancellor has now decided to set up an Awards Council and undertake a review of which awards should exist. The decision is in line with the Government’s reform of the public reward system for Sweden’s top awards (in Swedish). Vice-Chanc

Where were the suspects located before a crime was committed? Where was a bomb assembled or a batch of drugs produced? A new technique that analyzes environmental DNA could help provide answers. Geneticist Eran Elhaik at Lund University has developed an AI-based tool designed to support forensic investigations. The technology uses environmental DNA (eDNA) to help determine geographical origin from

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Markel has worked in the field of botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) during his PhD in Pål Stenmark's team, using X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM to solve the structure of several proteins related to the botulinum neurotoxins. His main cryo-EM project consisted in structural work on the 300 kDa complex of the novel BoNT

Forests are important for climate change mitigation, both as raw material for biofuels and for carbon storage. At the same time, forests are under pressure from a changing climate and more intensive forestry.
