Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Sverige satsar lite på biometanol som biobränsle, trots att flera studier visat att metanol från skogsråvara och annan biomassa ger högst energiutbyte och på sätt kan klassas som miljövänligast. Nu tyder nya forskningsresultat från motorlabbet vid Lunds Tekniska Högskola på att något justerade förbränningsmotorer ka

Trump’s attack on US universities and their research is actually a broader attack on democratic values, according to historian of knowledge Johan Östling. By destroying them, the Trump administration is paving the way for a very different kind of society.  “We need to understand the breadth and depth of this offensive,” says Johan Östling.Could you put Trump’s actions against universities in the U

Researcher Patrik Vestin writes in a " news and views " article in Nature that the woody surfaces of trees may take up methane on a scale of global importance. This is a missing piece in the estimation of global methane budgets, and hence in climate models. Future research should involve not just stems and trunks, but also leaves and small branches to get a fuller picture. Forests play a crucial r

Researchers at Lund University are developing a new type of gene therapy that reprograms cancer cells within tumors into immune cells that can help the immune system fight cancer. Their approach, now published in the journal Science, could lead to more effective treatments for hard-to-treat cancers. Cancer is known for its ability to hide from the immune system, making it tough to fight. But what
