We still know very little about how energy flows within our cells. Ville Kaila is using advanced methods to understand how a complex protein chain keeps the flow running. This knowledge may contribute to new treatments for severe genetic and neurodegenerative diseases.
What happens when we stop a river’s flow? What happens when we intervene, interrupt and disturb its course, to harness its powers in the name of renewable energy? And is a dammed river still a river?
Jesper Sollerman, professor and vice director of the Department of Astronomy at Stockholm University has been chosen as a new Swedish delegate to the council of the European Southern Observatory (ESO).
Smartphones and chatbots have changed how we search for knowledge. Information is always within reach, and we can learn in any order we choose. This feels new. But historian of ideas Linn Holmberg shows that Europe has experienced a similar transformation before.
Professor Emil Bergholtz is at the forefront of the application made by Stockholm University, Linköping University and Uppsala University to create a broad and cohesive strategic research area in quantum physics.

A pan-European group of astronomers has used newly developed computer technology to solve a 100 year-old puzzle. While most galaxies in our neighborhood move away from us almost as expected for an unperturbed cosmic expansion, our nearest giant neighbour is approaching at high speed.
Nordic Quantum Communication Infrastructure (NordicQCI) held a kick-off meeting for the consortium and its partners on January 22–23. The project aims to develop and implement the most effective solutions for secure communication – from local city networks and long-distance connections to land-based networks, satellites and submarine cables.
The number of applicants naming Stockholm University (SU) as their first choice for an international master’s programme has risen by 14 per cent compared with last year, to 11,123 individuals.
A piece of cheese may seem harmless, but in some cases it can carry a deadly stowaway: Listeria monocytogenes. As unpasteurized cheeses become increasingly popular, the need for new methods to ensure food safety is growing. Traditional ways of combating Listeria have limitations, so researchers are turning to an unexpected ally: viruses that attack bacteria.
ICT tools such as smartphones and computers are of great help to designers. But when designers take shortcuts to generate ideas, empathy may be lost.

The Dark Energy Survey (DES) delivers new, tighter constraints that narrow down the possible models for how the universe behaves.
Farouq has a long experience as a mathematics teacher and teacher educator in Ghana, where he has also played a key role in supporting colleagues in the use of digital tools. His dissertation builds on his master’s thesis on educational technology and compares the contexts of Sweden and Ghana.
