3D printing with moon dust - Högskolan i Halmstad
On July 21, 1969, Neil Armstrong took his first steps on the moon – on a surface covered with moon dust. Now, 50 years later, scientists are developing technology that will make 3D printing with moon dust possible. Why? To be able to build a moon station for further space travel, without transporting heavy materials from Earth. ”Earth is not our final destination. Human exploration of the solar system is inevitable”, says Ross Friel, Associate Professor at Halmstad University.

Using AI to individualise care for heart patients in Halland - Högskolan i Halmstad
A growing elderly population puts great demands on our increasingly complex healthcare system. Ineffective decision-making can lead to a poorer quality of care for the patients, as well as escalating care costs. By using AI models based on clinical data from patients, doctors can be better informed about their patients and make fact-based and individual care decisions. Awais Ashfaq at Halmstad University is the AI researcher behind these models. His research is part of a joint collaboration between Halmstad University and Region Halland in order to predict outcomes and demands of congestive heart failure patients in Halland using machine learning.

Let’s celebrate equality!
Did you know that many of our staff members at Halmstad University are LGBT certified? Equality is of great importance to us and we consider it crucial to be educated to be able to support all of our students. One way of showing support is to take part in Halmstad Pride this Saturday! We invite all students and staff to walk with Halmstad University during the parade on June 8. Wear your most colourful outfit and take this walk for equal terms and opportunities. Equality is Quality! More details on where to meet up can be found in events on our Facebook page. Hope to see you there!
