Pufendorf Academy – a programme about interdisciplinarity "in practice" The Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies serves as an incubator for new interdisciplinary ideas and research areas, and we want to encourage more researchers at Lund University to engage in interdisciplinary research. In addition to our annual calls to start interdisciplinary groups here, we have now started the Pufendorf

Starting in October, participants in the Pufendorf Academy will meet at the Pufendorf Institute (not hybrid) once a month to engage in workshops that have interdisciplinary research as a unifying common thread. Common to all the workshops is also that they will support the participants in solving actual problems that may aris

ASG 2025-2026 Different forms and early signs of online hate speech rhetoric among young adults on TikTok in Sweden: What if we could spot hate speech before it causes harm? Online hate isn’t always loud. It often hides in patterns of words, reactions, and images. These subtle cues can trigger strong emotional responses and impact mental health, especially among young people. Researchers from psyc

ASG 2025-2026 What if rhythm could help us communicate, learn – or even diagnose disease? Movement and rhythm are central to how we live, from walking and speaking to dancing and connecting with others. Drawing on research from cognitive science, neuroscience, robotics, and design, this ASG investigates how we perceive, describe, and replicate movement. Tools like motion capture (MOCAP) allow deta

ASG 2025-2026 What if PhD supervision could be more creative – and more human? Supervising can be so much more than merely a hierarchical academic duty. It can be about nurturing resilience, independence, and innovation. But how do we support PhD students through uncertainty, power dynamics, and vulnerability? Supervisors from across disciplines want to explore exactly this, with help from inspira

Themes consist of researchers from different disciplines at Lund University. They work together one full day a week here at the institute. Each group decides on how to explore the common research problem. Members are expected to be active, open and curious... and prepared to challenge both their own ideas and perspectives as well as the common questions. How do we apply for a Theme?Previous Themes

The alumni network exists for all former members of Themes. It was formalised in 2024 when we wanted to create opportunities exclusive to Lund University researchers with experience of working at the Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies. In a way, the alumni network has of course "always" existed, since 2011 anyway. Former members have been important drivers in our development and we rely on t

Why – and how – was an Institute for Advanced Studies established in the building at the intersection of Biskopsgatan and Sölvegatan in Lund? Why is it called the Pufendorf Institute? What activities have been in the building before? Can you also hold your meetings here?

The building that is now home to the Pufendorf IAS was originally built in 1886 to house the Department of Physics at Lund University. When the building was renovated, great importance was placed on preserving and incorporating elements from the layers of history. The original floor has been retained wherever possible, and any new flooring has been manufactured in the same way. The theatre balcony
