Professor Sara Rubinelli co-leads the "Communication with Society" work package of the National Centre of Competence in Research “Children & Cancer”. Two communication-focused research projects will be carried out at the University of Lucerne.

How can we determine whether a drug reaches its intended target in a patient's body? A research team led by the University of Lucerne has developed the first comprehensive framework that links molecular imaging with drug targets, potentially paving the way for more precise therapies.

In an era where the flow of information is both boundless and instantaneous, institutional health communication faces extraordinary challenges. In her new book, Sara Rubinelli shows how institutions can address these challenges and strengthen public trust in evidence-based health information.

Pandas inspire affection. Yet their journey to West Berlin was inextricably linked to the tensions of the Cold War – and the case shows how a zoo director helped shape foreign policy.

The philosopher Magdalena Hoffmann focuses, among other things, on ancient ethics. In this interview, she explains what constituted a good life in antiquity and why these centuries-old ideas still resonate today.

Victoria Lemieux and Andrea Leiter are the first two visiting researchers at the Zug Institute. They demonstrate that blockchain is also changing the way societies secure information and enforce the law.

The University of Lucerne has received a research grant for an international project investigating pneumococcal disease in children in the Philippines. The study aims to generate evidence that will help inform future vaccination strategies and preventive measures.

Why study blockchain from the perspectives of philosophy and sociology? Because the most crucial questions can only be fully grasped through the interplay of these two disciplines.

Visuospatial neglect is one of the most common yet overlooked consequences of stroke. Researchers in Lucerne are showing how eye-tracking technology can improve diagnosis and support earlier treatment.
