Effect of physical activity on bone strength during growth

This project aims to model femoral strength from ages 7–18 in all 496 POP (Pediatric Osteoporosis, a unique cohort with yearly follow-up of children from Malmö region) participants using finite element simulations. It will assess how physical activity shapes strength by comparing high and lowactivity groups. The work will yield

BioAcoustic Index Tool: Listening to Ecosystems in Skåne

The objective of the project is to further develop the BioAcoustic Index Tool as a cost-effective, easy-to-deploy tool that can be used to track the status of ecosystems in Skåne. This can, for example, help to monitor populations of the endangered European Green Toad, track movement patterns of migratory birds,

Computing with Decay: Toward Physics-Native Artificial Intelligence

The global AI infrastructure is becoming dependent on limited computing technologies (such as GPUs and TPUs) that are manufactured in only a few countries. We suggest an alternative computing approach which, in the long term, might provide technological diversification. By placing our work at the frontier of physics-inspired computing, we

Integrated blood sampling device for newborn infants

The project aims to replace the current blood sampling technique used in hospitals, especially neonatal care, where blood loss poses a higher health risk. The proposed solution is a compact, handheld device designed for placement inside an infant incubator. The device will safely and continuously draw blood, generate a sufficient

Food innovations for healthier people and a sustainable planet through advanced nanotechnology

Nutritional deficiencies remain a global challenge, yet current solutions like dietary supplements and food fortification are often suboptimal due to poor nutrient absorption and stability. This project aims to demonstrate that our nanotechnology-based fortification can overcome these limitations by enhancing nutrient bioavailability and stability in different food matrices. Additionally, this
