Patients with brain damage, e.g. after a traffic accident or stroke, have areas where the normal function of the brain’s vessels is wholly or partially impaired. The goal of this project is to create a bedside monitor that imports information from the patient’s normal monitoring equipment, processes this information and

We intend to find new alternatives for sustainable production and storage of renewable energy by utilizing the biosynthetic capacity of forest-tree associated microbes. This we will do by exploring if microbe collections, captured at our laboratory from forest trees in southern Sweden contain strains with high capacity for microbial electrosynthesis,

Several studies of people’s voice quality show promising results in the early detection of various types of diseases, such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s or post-traumatic stress. This project aims to detect early recurrence of cancer on the vocal cords. By automatically analysing regular voice recordings by patients, relapse can be detected

Development of a new mobility aid for the blind or the almost blind. Our ambition is to be able to replace the white cane and the leader dog; the only primary mobility aids in use today. Development will take place of prototypes that allow long-term tests, with the aim of

The goal is to produce a functioning chassis for the electric car Ecoist Tian in natural fibre composite; a reinforced natural fibre, bio-based thermosetting plastic. There is very little documentation and experience of producing this on an industrial scale. By using natural fibres as reinforcement material, plants absorb CO2 from

Most dyeing processes are today in aqueous solution, which causes major problems with the separation of dyes, by-products and other chemical waste. Unclean water is released straight into the environment, resulting in major environmental and health risks. The aim of this project is to develop a much improved and more

The overall goal of this project is to promote fresh ideas and innovation as well as provide practical experience to talented students at Lund University. This year, this is reflected in the fact that we have three projects ongoing at the same time with major focus on electric power and

In 2018, 90 billion tonnes of raw material was extracted globally where an estimation of 20% goes to waste. As designers we can move freely in between disconnected disciplines and disrupt knowledge silos in science today. Our goal is to create a symbiosis between otherwise detached industries and further develop

The purpose of the project is to further develop our microfabrication model of the sub-terrane to understand how the soil’s microorganisms are affected by the soil’s microstructures and microplastics, and how they in turn affect the soil’s carbon turnover. The goal, based on this new knowledge, is to be able

We aim to develop and produce new types of microlens arrays. These microlens arrays can be incorporated e.g. in microscopes to enable fast volumetric imaging. Additionally, we want to learn how to make large area microlens arrays that can be used to generate complex illumination patterns for applications like holographic
