Lina Ejlertsson, a doctoral student in Public Health at Lund University, believes that there is a classic approach to working with and measuring health in workplaces through sick leave rates, productivity and efficiency. – Most often, rehabilitative measures or preventative work are only undertaken after employees become ill. So what happens if you instead integrate various recovery activities int

At least a third of the glaciers in the Himalayan range could melt due to climate change. This will have severe consequences for almost 2 billion people, including the village communities in Nepal, since the glaciers are an important water and energy source. Researcher Mine Islar is examining the future of renewable energy through micro-hydro power in Nepal by looking at collective action to find

Normally, Nobel Symposia are quite rare, therefore it is quite remarkable that NanoLund researchers were the main organizers of two symposia that took place nearly at the same time. The Nobel Symposium NS 173: “Exploring complex molecular and condensed phase processes and functions by multidimensional spectroscopy from THz to X-rays” was held August 7–11, 2022 in Båstad.
