Science should be able to be reproduced, but in reality, this is a step that is often overlooked. Researcher Burak Tunca at Lund University School of Economics and Management sees several possible measures that could make research better – and more open. “Researchers should always pre-register their studies and be open with their data. That way we can avoid bias and hypotheses being changed during

For many countries in sub-Saharan Africa, the health care system was strained already before the coronavirus crisis. Lack of intensive care units and respirators and the difficult economic situation in most African countries limit the resources to combat the pandemic. LUCSUS researcher Karin Steen, who returned from a teaching sabbatical in Zimbabwe when the corona pandemic broke out, share her re

Singing can be a real health boost. Song involves your emotions, thoughts and body; the feelgood hormone oxytocin surges and the stress hormone cortisol declines. Singing accompanies us from the cradle to the grave, and binds us together as human beings. But what do kids sing in school, how much, and in what way? David Johnson, researcher at the Malmö Academy of Music, investigates this in his the

Using harmless viruses to insert genes that produce healthy, healing substances into the brain... transplanting cells, possibly from the patient’s own skin... or, most sci-fi of all, controlling special treated nerve cells with light signals in the brain. These are three different paths to a possible treatment for epilepsy that are being tested by a research group in Lund. To help them, the resear

They become smaller as urbanisation increases. Troublesome, according to researcher Helena Hanson, because urban private gardens affect both cities’ biodiversity and human wellbeing by functioning as social green spaces.

Previous EU framework programmes have focused largely on engineering, medicine and science, but over the next seven years, the EU wants to see more interdisciplinary research and collaboration, as well as more social science and humanities. But will Horizon 2020 be the breakthrough that the humanities have hoped for? “We are heading in the right direction, but we’re not there yet”, says Wim van de

The artist performs, the audience listens and applaud to show their appreciation. These are the given roles during a concert. But what happens if we dissolve these roles and the audience acts in a way that is completely unexpected. Does this change the song? The sound? The communication? This is what an interdisciplinary group at the Pufendorf Institute has studied during the spring. The six singe

Hospitals should design premises and adapt their infection control routines to a society that no longer has effective antibiotics, and that is vulnerable to fast-spreading global pandemics. This is argued in a new dissertation from Lund University in Sweden. “Many hospitals in Sweden and the world are becoming old and worn out. Therefore, we now have the chance to build properly from an infection
