Buying sex has been illegal in Sweden since 1999. Despite this, sexual services are openly marketed on numerous websites — and buyers freely share their reviews. This is revealed in a new study.
A new master’s programme at DSV explores how to design and interact with emerging digital and physical environments.
Cyber attackers are clever and persistent: They continuously develop new weapons and launch new attacks. How can we protect our cyber-physical systems? Elias Seid has developed a framework to strengthen our resilience.
The code in your modern software is not new. To a large extent, it’s been reused from older software. The problem with this? You might be the victim of a software supply chain attack.
Machines lack human intelligence, and relying on them for important decisions can therefore be dangerous. AI may discriminate, lie and make mistakes – without feeling guilty about it. Clàudia Figueras’s research on ethics and AI shows how we can approach the problem.
In September, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences hosted AI for Science in Beijer Hall, co-organized with the new EDUCATE Centre of Excellence. The two-day meeting brought together researchers and technology leaders to compare strategies for using AI across disciplines—from cosmology and particle physics to fusion, materials discovery and weather forecasting.
Stockholm University joins ENERPOL, a project where leading European institutions explore policy strategies that empower households in the energy transition. Households are redefined: They are not only consumers, but also producers and flexibility providers critical to a fair, climate-neutral energy system.
In a novel study published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society in August 2025, scientists at the Oskar Klein Centre have developed an AI-powered method to build a digital twin of the Universe—reconstructing its early state and simulating its entire evolution up to the galaxies we see today.
In his fresh PhD thesis, Rahmat Mulyana explores successful digital transformation. He stresses the importance of IT governance to balance between control and flexibility. We asked him what organizations can do to up their digital game.
The Nordic countries have ambitious goals to become carbon neutral. For Sweden, the year is set to 2045. Is this feasible? We asked Farzad Hassanzadeh Moghimi who recently defended his PhD thesis.
What if an app could help people with psoriasis monitor their skin remotely and predict flare-ups—cutting down on costly and time-consuming visits to the doctor? That is the vision behind PsoriScan, a start-up idea developed by master’s student Hossam Shahin during the Startup Garage Spring 2025 Business Development Bootcamp – an idea that went on to win 10,000 SEK.
Four PhD students, a graduated master’s student and a data scientist from Ericsson teamed up for a hackathon. The result? Success. The team – DSVx – reached second place!
