New technology is something threatening and often dangerous. At least that is the picture presented if you read modern children’s literature.
– This is contradictory. Technology is becoming an increasingly integral part of everyday life, including in literature. But at the same time, there is often a concern or a hidden threat in technology, says Jakob Olsson, researcher at Karlstad University.
Jakob Olsson has studied 249 books, published between 2000 and 2019.

Research on justice in connection with disasters and sustainable development is becoming increasingly important in a world where climate change and social inequalities create new challenges.
Research on organic solar cells has been conducted for a long time. Recent advancements in understanding their molecular structures are now paving the way for the development of highly efficient solar cells.
– By using atomic force microscopy-infrared spectroscopy, AFM-IR, we’ve been able to create clearer images of the morphology or structure of the material, says Ishita Jalan, postdoc in physical chemistry and main author of a recently published scientific article.

We are delighted to welcome Siri Jakobsson Störe. Her research interests primarily lie within clinical psychology, health psychology, and developmental psychology, closely linked to her background as a licensed psychologist.
Siri, tell us about your background!
– I earned my degree in psychology in Oslo before moving to Karlstad in 2013, where I began working in child and adolescent psychiatry. During my seven years there, I specialized in clinical psychology.

You have recently, together with Jakob Trischler, published a study that introduces a framework focusing on public services. Could you briefly tell us about the study and its findings?
– The study builds on my previous research on services as value-creating practices. Simply put, it aims to create a reference framework to understand that services consist of concrete value-creating activities in which people actively participate.

Petter Falk, new doctor in Political Science at Karlstad University and the Service Research Centre (CTF), sheds light on conditions and grounds for datafication in his doctoral thesis “Assemble Care // Align Data”.
– What surprised me the most was that datafication is intuitively accepted, despite a kind of intellectual resistance, says Petter Falk.
The term “big data” is frequently used nowadays, but your research emphasises the importance of the small details.

The first Nordic conference for PhD supervisors has now been held at Karlstad University. With a large turnout from 13 countries and 42 universities, one might wonder how big the Nordic region is, or as expressed by one of the participants, “The Nordic countries have grown in numbers”.
– It has been an intense but very rewarding few days, says Roger Renström, docent in computer science and organiser of the conference.
