LTH project receives funding from Vinnova to plan future technology clusters
Vinnova has granted funding for the planning of clusters of excellence for groundbreaking technology. Of the 45 projects approved, five are at The Faculty of Engineering, Lund University.

Robot learning from all angles
Research on robot learning spans from interpretation of sensing data to a robot executing actions in the real world, disciplines the organizers of the ELLIIT focus period on robot learning now bring together in Lund from beginning of November.

Safety and reliability first
For robots to work and collaborate with humans in real-world environments, their functioning must be safe and reliable. Momina Rizwan, PhD Student in Software Development and Environments, has investigated these aspects of autonomous robots in changing environments.

Research conference: Breaking barriers to climate solutions
Welcome to this interdisciplinary research conference on the theme "Breaking barriers to climate solutions". The conference aims to encourage knowledge sharing and dialogue between Lund University and the University of Cambridge.

Doctoral thesis in applied mathematics: Artificial fingerprints train safer AI
Donglin Liu, a doctoral student in applied mathematics, has used several different mathematical models in order to improve artificial intelligence at a fundamental level.

Doctoral thesis in biomedical engineering: AI analyses of magnetic resonance imaging examinations
Magnetic resonance cameras are used routinely for evaluating normal heart functions and to discover heart disease.

For the good of the code reviewer
Code review is somewhat of a hidden activity, but wherever software is written today, code review also takes place. One estimate suggests that as many hours are spent on code review worldwide as people spend watching television. Lo Gullstrand Heander’s research explores how code reviewers can best be supported in their work.

Doctoral thesis in Immunotechnology: Combating cancer in the bladder
A new type of cancer treatment is emerging that uses the body's own immune system to fight cancer. This works clinically and is currently used in various ways to treat different types of cancer.
