Type 2 diabetes is a complex disease that can lead to serious health problems. It is important to find ways to predict the disease to take preventive measures. A large interdisciplinary study led by Lund University has identified a biomarker in the blood that predicts type 2 diabetes several years before diagnosis. Diabetes is on the rise and over time, diabetes can lead to complications such as c

Allt fler vill hjälpa bin och andra pollinerare och väljer därför att odla blommor rika på nektar och pollen. Men vilka blommor gör allra störst nytta? Enligt pollineringsforskare beror det på syftet. Vill man gynna hotade biarter och den biologiska mångfalden bör man välja en mångfald av växter av inhemskt ursprung. Är man lantbrukare med stora arealer insektspollinerade jordbruksgrödor kan det v
