There were fewer cases of breast cancer between two screening rounds, and of the cancers that did develop, fewer were advanced or aggressive. The final results from Lund University's MASAI trial are now available, and they show further benefits of AI-supported breast cancer screening. The study has already shown that AI support in mammography screening contributes to a 29 percent increase in detec

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A Swedish-Danish research team is now launching a new theory of the process that led to the formation of Earth. Through advanced analyses of meteorites, astronomers can determine that Tellus went from being a baby planet made of ice and carbon to reaching its current size thanks to millimetre-sized pebbles. The study

Through the DNA analysis of old air samples collected by the Swedish Armed Forces, researchers at Lund University in Sweden can show that spore dispersal of northern mosses has shifted over the past 35 years. It now starts several weeks earlier, revealing how quickly nature’s calendar can reset in line with a warmer climate. “The samples have proved to be an unexpected, unique and very exciting ar

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Nowadays it is possible to produce plastics from sugar or vegetable oils, but up to now fossil oil has been too cheap for the production of bioplastics to be profitable. That explains why the plastic-producing bacteria, developed some years ago by researchers at the Centre for Chemistry and Chemical Engineering (Kemic

Universitetet tar dagligen emot runt en miljon e-postmeddelanden. Cirka 90 % av dem är oönskade meddelanden. För att minska riskerna det innebär kommer universitetet göra en flytt av e-posttjänsten till en säkrare lösning. Denna flytt har tidigarelagts på grund av den senaste tidens driftstörningar. De oönskade meddelandena består av skräppost, försök att stjäla lösenord, så kallade VD-bedrägerier
