Under årets KEFU-dag gavs en rad infallsvinklar på vad det innebär att ge, ha och ta ansvar för att vi ska kunna ha ett välfungerande samhälle. Även i år filmades alla föreläsningar och de kan nu ses på KEFU:s YouTube-kanal. Johan Wester var liksom förra året moderator för dagen, som inleddes med en föreläsning av Erik Angner, professor i praktisk filosofi vid Stockholms universitet och disputerad

Efter ett års intensivt arbete av många involverade så är Swedish Climate Symposium, med sina närmare 400 deltagare, i mål. Nu väntar en utvärdering av konferensen, men känslan är att de flesta upplevt det som ett lyckat evenemang. För att ta pulsen under själva symposiet gjorde vi ett par korta intervjuer med några av de som var på plats. Nöjda arrangörer Josefin Madjidian är forskningskoordinato

Universitetets strategiska plattform har uppdaterats inför 2025 och gäller nu till 2027. Framöver kommer årlig genomlysning av plattformen att göras för att säkerställa att fokus är kalibrerat på bästa sätt. Rankning och internationellt genomslag är också del av kvalitetsutvecklingenDe är mycket glädjande att universitetet har börjat klättra i rankningslistorna de senaste åren. Det är många insats
Sedan regeringen beslutade att avskaffa det öronmärkta anslaget till utvecklingsforskning via Vetenskapsrådet, har finansieringen till den här typen av forskning minskat med minst två tredjedelar. Det visar en genomgång som forskarnätverket Swedev har gjort. Drygt 1,5 år har gått sedan regeringen meddelade att stödet till utvecklingsforskningen skulle dras in, med argumentet att pengarna behövdes

“English is like a membrane between us and reality”. The quote comes from a teacher at a Swedish higher education institution and describes their experience of teaching Swedish students in English. “Today, there are often no educational reasons why a particular course in the first-cycle is taught in English,” argues Peter Svensson, senior lecturer in Business Administration at Lund University Scho

A large international collaboration involving researchers from Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center has taken an important step toward making induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)–based therapies more globally accessible. Published in Stem Cell Reports, the study presents the first data‑driven international benchmarking of key quality control assays, showing how standardized methods can reduce v

A few sharp minds working together for almost an entire summer. The task: to tackle the problem that a couple of days of work generates so much data, that it would take months to analyse. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction is a technique that allows us to obtain precise and detailed structural information of materials and their properties, and to fundamentally understand physical processes at the atomi

Michael Molavi and Isabel Schoultz have received a major research grant from the European Commission’s Horizon Europe Programme. Together with newly hired post-doctoral researcher, Elin Jönsson, they will study how ongoing de-democratisation processes affect protest cultures and how these effects comparatively vary across Europe. Europe is experiencing a steady democratic decline. The trend is dis

A new face appears in the Applied Gerontology research group's premises in Forum Medicum, Lund. The PhD student, economist and self-taught programmer Johannes Malm, now divides his time between Lund and Jönköping Universities (Schools of Health Sciences), as well as Blekinge Institute of Technology. In addition to personal reasons, Johannes Malm had several reasons for moving to Lund at the end of
