Timos Karpouzoglou visited LUMES and LUCSUS on 24th November to hold a round table discussion on the ‘elephant in the room – power’. Here is his guest blog on reflecting on the round table discussion:Bringing the Elephants to the table: What is the role of power in sustainability research? We live in a warming and increasingly unequal world. Moving towards safe and just futures requires transdisci

This Regional Outlook focuses on the prospect for Israeli and Palestinian peace activism and how, during times of pressure, solidarity groups redress their methods. In the aftermath of October 7th, with Israeli hostages still in captivity and ongoing war, destruction and violence in Gaza, prospects for future peaceful coexistence in the region seem more distant than ever. In conjunction, Hamas’ ha

In his doctoral thesis in sociology "Structures of subcontracting: Work organisation, control, and labour in the Swedish building sector", Rasmus Ahlstrand analyses the increased use of subcontractors and explores new forms of work organisation in the Swedish building sector. A key contribution of his study is the concept of masked staffing, which refers to unauthorised ways of organising labour t

A new study from Lund University in Sweden on how the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine affects human liver cells under experimental conditions, has been viewed more than 800,000 times in just over a week. The results have been widely discussed across social media – but the results have in many cases been misinterpreted. Two of the authors, Associate Professor Yang de Marinis (YDM) and Professor Ma

During the pandemic mediators and conflict parties have had to interact, discuss and even negotiate via computer screens. Women negotiators have benefited from this and describe how they experienced the virtual medium as a more equal space since it is more difficult for men to dominate with body language and appearance, for example. This is described by Isabel Bramsen and Anine Hagemann in the art

I vilka vetenskapliga tidskrifter ska man som forskare försöka få artiklar publicerade? Det gäller att se upp, eftersom det finns en del mindre nogräknade förlag på marknaden. De erbjuder publicering på webben – mot betalning, men utan ordentlig granskning. ”Ett allvarligt hot mot den vetenskapliga trovärdigheten”, menar professor Hervé Corvellec. – Titta, tror du att det här är seriöst, säger Her

Christina Isaxon has always been interested in how small particles in the air affect our health. As society’s use of nanomaterials increases, research questions about safety are becoming urgent. ‟We need to know more about the conditions in which nanoparticles can affect us and how we can safely handle these materials.” Her research is about understanding how nanoparticles are generated and releas

Med en improviserad hemmastudio, gratis mjukvara och en intensivkurs på nätet i filmredigering kunde lärare ta sitt samhällsansvar och producera digitalt undervisningsmaterial från karantän. I ett fall på avdelningen för konstruktionsteknik visade kursutvärderingen på en klar förbättring från föregående år. Ett trevligt resultat med bitter eftersmak.

An increasing number of people want to help bees and other pollinators by growing flowers that are rich in pollen and nectar. But which flowers are the most beneficial? If the point is to aid threatened bee species and biodiversity, then a variety of native plants is the way to go. If you are a farmer, with large areas of insect-pollinated crops, it might be easiest to aim for a few species of flo

Diabetesforskare vid Lunds universitet har tidigare visat att det är möjligt att dela in diabetes i fem olika grupper med olika sjukdomsutveckling. En ny studie av samma forskare ger ökat stöd för att indelningen kan bli användbar inom sjukvården i framtiden. Forskarna har dessutom gjort nya fynd som visar på skillnader mellan grupperna när det gäller utvecklingen av komplikationer. Många patiente

Few conflicts today seem as difficult to resolve as the one between Israel and Palestine – a conflict concerning territory, religion and historical claims reaching back a thousand years. The recent violence between Israel and Hamas, the infected question of Jerusalem’s status and an increasing separation between the populations make the journey towards peace seem particularly long.

Henrik Smith receives the Marsh Awards for Ecology by the British Ecological Society. The prize recognizes his long-standing contributions to advancing ecological research and strengthening the connection between science and society. He himself highlights the need for public engagement in science — the days of letting hefty reports collect dust are behind us. The motivation for the Marsh Awards fo

Angry children can be a feature of Christmas. The fact is that the disappointment children feel is a great opportunity to train them for challenges later in life. This is according to Elia Psouni, professor of developmental psychology. A friend not turning up on time, a computer crashing in the middle of a game of Fortnite or a Christmas present that just could not be more wrong. “Disappointment i

Han Somsen has newly been appointed professor in environmental law at the Faculty of Law. He is best known for his recommendation that bird-killing cats should be kept indoors. “Humans see themselves as the kings of the hill, which extends to their cats. If you question this, many people get very angry. I got death threats,” says Han Somsen. Han Somsen’s latest position was as professor at Tilburg
