For over 60 years, scientists have tried to determine whether plants are pollinated primarily during the day or at night — without reaching a clear conclusion. Now, a major research review from Lund University in Sweden has revealed that nighttime pollinators play just as significant a role as daytime species in 90 percent of the cases studied. Most of us know how important bees, birds, and butter

Primitive stoves and diesel engines produce soot particles, besides being bad for your health, have a negative effect on the climate. By affecting the atmosphere’s ability to form cloud droplets and ice particles, soot can dislodge the radiation balance. This according to doctoral student John Falk, who is currently working on his dissertation about cloud droplet and ice particle formation in clou

In the Colombian rainforest, cattle ranching is spreading and leading to forest fires and deforestation. This threatens the environment, climate and indigenous people in the Amazon. More efficient use of existing pastures and alternative livelihoods are some of the factors needed to protect the rainforest, according to a new thesis by Jesica López. Colombia's rainforest is part of the Amazon and i

Gases used in anaesthesia are potent greenhouse gases, and their total global impact has not previously been known. A study published in The Lancet Planetary Health led by Lund University shows that greenhouse gas emissions from anaesthetic gases have decreased by 27% over the last ten years. By swapping out the anaesthetic gas with the highest climate impact, the climate impact of anaesthetic gas

In recent years, great advances have been made in the development of new successful immunotherapies to treat cancer. CAR T-cell therapy and antibody treatments are two types of targeted immunotherapies that have revolutionised areas of cancer care. However, there are still significant challenges in the identification of cancer cell surface proteins as targets for immunotherapies. A research group

All particles that reach the atmosphere cause different chemical reactions. Particles come partly from natural sources such as volcanic eruptions and forest fires, and partly from pollution and emissions. Aerosol researcher Johan Friberg studies particles at high altitudes. He fears that the global increase in forest fires could have a significant impact on the ozone layer. “I study the air in the

Typ 2-diabetes är en komplex sjukdom som kan leda till allvarliga hälsoproblem. Därför är det viktigt att förutse vem som är i riskzonen att utveckla sjukdomen. En stor tvärvetenskaplig studie som har letts av Lunds universitet har identifierat en biomarkör i blodet som kan förutse typ 2-diabetes flera år innan diagnos kan ställas. Diabetes är ett växande folkhälsoproblem, som kan leda till hjärt-

Miljöskandalen i Teckomatorp ägde rum under 1970-talet. Nu femtio år senare har precis den tredje och sista etappen i saneringsarbetet avslutats. Under 2000-talet har Arbets- och miljömedicin vid Region Skåne och Lunds universitet, vid olika tillfällen undersökt rester av bekämpningsmedel i urinen hos saneringspersonal. Redan på 1980-talet var Arbets- och miljömedicin representerad i styrgruppen f
