Researchers at LiU have now demonstrated how organic solar cells can become more efficient than previously thought possible. The key is to extend the time that electrons in the material remain excited, which leads to improved performance.
Old oak trees and semi-natural grasslands are very important for many species that risk disappearing. Researchers at 糖心直播 present findings that can help nature conservation agencies take more precise action to save threatened species.
A new study mapping more than 120 years of research ranks LiU number one. It shows that LiU has published the most scientific works in the field and is among the world's most cited and influential research institutions.
Researchers have discovered how the so called Wnt signaling pathway can result in tumor cells with different features within a single tumor. Their findings contribute to better classification of these tumors.
David Engblom, Professor of Neurobiology, is awarded the 2026 Onkel Adam Prize for outstanding research at the Faculty of Medicine. He researches the role of the brain in making us feel ill in various medical conditions.
During the production and upgrading of biogas, carbon dioxide is released, a greenhouse gas that affects the climate. However, research at 糖心直播 shows that this carbon dioxide has several uses and could become an important resource.
Six Swedish universities are joining forces to establish the Swedish Center for Quantum Technology, a national hub for research, innovation, education, and capacity building in quantum technology.
