  • Timing many-body effects in small quantum systems

    Research project

    When atomic systems are exposed to light it is the electrons that react first. They absorb the radiation and convert the photon energy into excitation and ionization. Ultra-short light pulses are tools to study this dynamics in real time.

  • ToBe: Towards a sustainable wellbeing economy

    Research project

    Towards a sustainable wellbeing economy: Integrated policies and transformative indicators. ToBe is a Horizon Europe-funded project of 36 months starting March 2023

  • To bear the responsibility – A local school perspective on schools as crime preventive institutions

    Research project

    The overall aim is to study how crime prevention initiatives aimed at schools are received, interpreted and practiced at the local school level.

  • To become or not to become a leader

    Research project

    Pathways into and out of leadership positions in a gender and life-course perspective. This project fills some gaps within the research field by studying both those who do and do not become leaders, and movements into and out of management positions.

  • To borrow or not to borrow?

    Research project

    Many countries have introduced student loans to support higher education participation and funding. However, the proportion of students who use loans seems to vary greatly across higher education systems. In this project, we investigate institutional and individual-level factors that influence student loan uptake.

  • Together for a safe start

    Research project

    Low socioeconomic status has a proven link to both mental and physical ill-health, as well as to increased use of health care services. To counteract long-term health risks in adulthood caused by health inequalities and toxic stress during childhood, early interventions are now being prioritized.

  • To give and receive criticism - the sensitive nature of feedback as an interactional phenomenon

    Research project

    Social actions such as advice and feedback are sensitive actions, often triggering emotional and defensive reactions. Moreover, just how to understand and describe such actions – for instance, as “constructive advice”, “complaints”, or even “insults” – is a potential point of contention and dispute for participants in interaction.

  • Tom Willhammar research group

    Research group

    Our research circles around electron microscopy, electron diffraction and its applications to the structural characterization of materials.

  • Too tired to know?

    Research project

    Insufficient sleep has negative effects on several cognitive abilities, but little is known about the extent to which sleep-deprived people are aware of their own impairments.

  • Topological phases and their transitions

    Research project

    Topological phases of matter are amongst the most interesting phases that are being studied, both theoretically as well as in experiments. In this project, we focus on the various types of phase transitions that topological phases can undergo.

  • Touch: From fingertip to brain

    Research project

    The goal of this research environment, which is a cross-disciplinary collaboration between Stockholm university, The Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE), is to understand the hierarchical contributions of chemical, mechanical, neural and psychological factors governing dynamic tactile perception.

  • Towards a European Right to Claim Innocence?

    Research project

    Normative and practical reflections on remedies for overturning wrongful convictions

  • Towards a grammar of spoken South Saami

    Research project

    This is Richard Kowalik's PhD project in linguistics. The project resulted in the first comprehensive description of South Saami since the 1940s.

  • Towards an Inclusive Circular Economy: the contributions of informal workers in urban Africa

    Research project

    The purpose of this study is to advance scientific understanding of the interaction between emerging circular economy (CE) policies and informal recycling work in African cities.

  • Towards an organizational theory on “obsessive measurement disorder”:

    Research project

    A comparative study on how intermediary organizations translate performance measurement requirements on aid

  • Towards a rational theory of resource utilization in human visual working memory

    Research project

    Visual working memory is a core cognitive system that guides a large range of our behaviors, from basic perception and motor control to complex reasoning.

  • Towards a Risk-sensitive Account of Moral Rights

    Research project

    The aim of this research project is to develop a risk-sensitive account of moral rights that explains whether, how and why the strength of rights is sensitive to risks of harm.

  • Towards epistemic justice: Language, identity, and relations of knowing in postcolonial schools

    Research project

    The aim of the project is to investigate what can happen when a school changes from a monolingual to a multilingual episteme and recognizes all languages as resources for learning, or epistemic resources. It explores the ways in which 10- to 14-year-olds in primary schools use their multilingual repertoires to forge new ways of living and learning together.

  • Towards Trustworthy Large Language Models

    Research project

    Large language models (LLMs) power today’s AI assistants, yet they often behave like black boxes. This project explores why LLMs can be unreliable and how explainability methods can make their decisions more transparent, trustworthy and sustainable.

  • Toxicity guided inverse design of materials for environmental remediation

    Research project

    Environmental remediation of water and soil as well as clean-up of waste streams relies on separation of pollutants followed by their transformation to non-hazardous products.
