Breath-holding spells are common in young children and are benign. Yet children often undergo unnecessary diagnostic interventions when seeking medical care. This is because there are no national or international guidelines on how to assess children in these cases. A team of researchers at Lund University, Sweden has now proposed guidelines to reduce the number of emergency and unplanned medical v

Researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center have made a new discovery about how the human genome protects itself from disruption during critical stages of life. Their study, recently published in Nature Communications, reveals how two key defense mechanisms—DNA methylation and the HUSH complex—work together to safeguard genomic stability. The human genome contains large stretches of rep

Academic misconduct has increased with about 200% during the past covid years. As a precaution Lund University has started a project to prevent deception and misleading in examination, whether it’s unauthorized cooperation, plagiarism, or non-allowed aids.

Changes occur in all cells of the human body as we age. Blood stem cells, in particular, lose some of their functionality over time, contributing to various blood disorders and disease-related conditions. Scientists are investigating the reasons behind this decline. According to a recent study by researchers from the Lund Stem Cell Center at Lund University, published in Nature Aging, the genetic

Trade shocks can have various impacts on the economic activities of a country, yet it remains uncertain whether such shocks influence the environmental behaviors of firms. Albert Duodu shows, in a recent investigation, that trade shocks originating from countries with less stringent environmental regulations can spur significant demand for emission-intensive goods from Swedish firms, subsequently

One of the biggest perks of teaching at university? Supervising students and seeing them grow into their role. That is at least according to senior lecturers Olof Hallonsten and Anna Jonsson. Detectives with magnifying glasses and catching and preparing a fish.

In 2022, Sweden became the first country in the world to allow body checking in women's ice hockey. Major hockey nations are now following Lund University's research on the consequences of tougher plays on the ice. A first study shows that almost nine out of ten players in the Swedish women's hockey league are in favour of body checking – regardless of their own size. “We found that interesting. T

In France, there has long been a heated debate over gender-inclusive language, with critics warning that it makes texts difficult to read. However, a new thesis shows that the forms work as intended. They make women more visible in the reader’s mind, without significantly compromising readability. In French, all nouns have a grammatical gender and are either masculine or feminine. On top of that,

The research areas remain the same, but our perspective on them has changed. This is how consumption researchers Carys Egan-Wyer and Emma Samsioe describe the development in retail research over the past ten years. “In one of our recent reports, we call it 'Retail as unusual.' There is no longer a normal state in trade, no 'Business as usual.' Everything has become more uncertain,” says Carys Egan

What happens if there is a power cut and the heating stops working for a long period of time? Besides the obvious consequences – that technology doesn’t work and it gets cold – how do we, as a society, prepare for such a crisis? Do we know who is supposed to do what when it happens? And who gets to decide on the crisis plans? There are many different unexpected and sudden events that can happen. A

During the pandemic, reports of cheating rose dramatically – by over 100 per cent. The response to this development saw the launch of the pilot project “Förebygga disciplinära förseelser” (Prevent disciplinary offences) which was intended to strengthen the capacity of learning environments to prevent cheating and produce routines and materials for the work going forward.
