Nästa år firar Campus Helsingborg 25 år. Med utgångspunkt i dagens verksamhet och åren som gått blickar rektor Charlotta Johnsson framåt mot åren som kommer och i vilken riktning den livfulla 25-åringen är på väg. När Campus Helsingborg snart fyller 25 år, kan jag inte låta bli att dra paralleller till en 25-åring i livet. Det är en ålder präglad av potential och energi, men också av en trygg för

I ett unikt arkiv på Universitetsbiblioteket förvaras 500 djupintervjuer med överlevande från koncentrationslägret Ravensbrück, gjorda direkt efter att de ankom till Sverige våren 1945. Nu är arkivet nominerat till FN-organet Unesco för att bli ett världsminne, ett skrivet kulturarv som är av stort värde för mänskligheten.

Hösten 1968 kom det första numret av LUM ut. Från att ha varit ett rent informationsblad utvecklades LUM under 70-talet till en journalistisk tidning som var tidigt ute med att anställa vetenskapsjournalister. I takt med att internet vann mark glesades utgivningen ut, fast LUM har enligt läsarundersökningar ändå haft sin relevans. Men nu läggs tidningen ner och vi ser tillbaka på åren som gått. De

Much of the world's infrastructure is made of concrete, which presents a challenge when it cracks and needs repair. Traditional repair methods involve cutting away a large amount of material. Now researchers at Lund University are investigating an innovative solution: using fungi to mend concrete. This groundbreaking research got off the ground with a Sustainable Idea Exploration grant and support

Researchers at Lund University have developed a new method to determine how the composition of proteins in blood changes in response to disease or organ damage. This could provide a deeper understanding of how diseases affect the body and be used to discover new biomarkers in the blood to aid in diagnosing complex medical conditions. Our organs consist of a variety of specific proteins that are vi

For the first time, the University has investigated the collective climate footprint of the entire organisation. Emissions of greenhouse gases fell sharply during the pandemic, almost exclusively due to the suspension of travel. However, there is still a long way to go to meet the emission targets for 2023 in the sustainability plan. The recent report shows that, in 2018, the University emitted a

The idea of publishing research findings in open access journals is in many ways an asset in the research community. Unfortunately, it has also entailed the emergence of many unprofessional agents on the market. Their only purpose is to trick researchers into giving them money.

When Anders Ackfeldt and 22 other researchers criticised the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency’s (MSB) research report “The Muslim Brotherhood in Sweden” for adding fuel to an overly conspiracy theory-tinged image of Islam, it provoked a deluge of threatening emails the following day. “My children were mentioned in the email and that got me worried.

Recurrent threats via telephone, email and letter – often in conjunction with being published. That is part of everyday research for gender researcher Diana Mulinari and many of her colleagues. “It is almost systematic. Those who hate and make threats are aggressively sexist and racist. Their hate ideology is based on who I am – a woman with a foreign background.” Diana Mulinari, is a Doctor of S

Back then, the red brick buildings rose like a lonely wall against the open fields of eastern Lund. Now, the buildings are a hub in the middle of the knowledge highway that links the centre of the city with the research facilities on the outskirts of Brunnshög. We are talking, of course, about the buildings on the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) campus. Architect Klas Anshelm’s red brick buildings ha
