Skatt på förmögenhet eller på kött? Basinkomt eller inkomstak? Hur långt är vi beredda att gå för att leva socialt och ekologiskt hållbart och skruva ner på takten i konsumtionssamhället? Inte särskilt långt visar en studie av forskare i socialt arbete vid Lunds universitet. Max Koch är professor i socialt arbete och forskar om hållbar välfärd och ekonomisk nerväxt, på engelska degrowth. Han, med

På tio år har forskargruppen Rehabiliteringsmedicins forskning om ryggmärgsskador nått långt. På flera områden befinner sig forskningen i det världsledande skiktet, inte minst vad gäller att över tid följa en och samma grupp personer som lever - och åldras - med ryggmärgsskada. Forskargruppschefen Jan Lexell kommer inom kort att spänna gruppens akademiska muskler ytterligare. Den longitudinella st

Targeted missiles that can enter cancer cells and deliver lethal cell toxins without harming surrounding healthy tissue. This has been a long-standing vision in cancer research, but it has proved difficult to accomplish. A research group at Lund University in Sweden has now taken some crucial steps in this direction. “For several years, we tried to elucidate which target proteins on the cancer cel

A lot of research explains which diets may reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Much research remains to be done about how our genes respond to the foods we eat. A new study led by researchers at Lund University adds to evidence that variations in the AMY1 gene may affect the way the body breaks down starchy foods. Unhealthy food habits are risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes. An

Det är inte den som blir föremål för ohövlighet som får sitt beteende påverkat allra mest, utan omgivningen. Det säger Kristoffer Holm som lagt fram en psykologiavhandling om ohövlighet på jobbet. Han menar att den digitala arbetsplatsen ställer frågan på sin spets: – Vi behöver de informella mötena för att missförstånd ska rätas ut och hårda ord mildras.

Ett innovativt pantsystem för matförpackningar. Det är en bättre och mer omfattande åtgärd än den omtvistade plastpåseskatten som kan komma att tas bort eller reduceras vid årsskiftet. Det menar statsvetaren Karl Holmberg som anser att skatten bör behållas – men då utökas till att omfatta alla typer av engångspåsar. Regeringen har i vårbudgeten förslagit att remittera frågan om att avskaffa eller

Nicholas Leigh kom från USA till Sverige och Lund för fyra år sedan. I sin forskning fokuserar han på salamandrar och hur de kan återskapa allt från ben, svansar och till och med delar av hjärtat. I Sverige har han också engagerat sig i arbetsmiljöfrågor. Det var älgar och deras förmåga att växa ut nya horn ­efter fällning som först väckte ­Nicholas Leighs intresse för regenerativ forskning.
