Agriculture is critical to achieving many of the Sustainable Development Goals. New research from Lund University shows that researchers, policymakers, and farmers in Europe currently have different, often conflicting priorities for sustainable agriculture. The researchers propose a way forward built on shared priorities. – We identified precisely where the major gaps between research, policy, and

Sveriges smittskyddsstrategi bygger i hög utsträckning på frivillighet och tillit. I en färsk enkätstudie finner forskare i nationalekonomi att efterlevnaden av myndigheternas rekommendationer tycks vara relativt god, framförallt i riskgrupperna. Det som oroar svenskarna mest är inte smittan, utan de ekonomiska konsekvenserna av pandemin. Resultaten understryker också att frivillighet värderas hög

Magnetkameratekniken har gjort det möjligt för forskare och kliniker att se hur vi människor ser ut på insidan – i alla kroppsdelar som innehåller vatten – utan att behöva använda kirurgi. Men för några år sedan höll nya EU-regler på att sätta käppar i hjulet. De har arbetat tillsammans sedan 1980-talet, röntgensjuksköterskan Titti Owman och forskaren Pia Sundgren. – På den tiden använde vi oss bl

”Lejoninnan från Lund”, de ”bruna anatomerna” och ett av den tidiga diabetesbehandlingens främsta namn – det är några personer som sticker ut i Medicinska fakultetens historia. Denna följer i mycket samma utveckling som vid andra jämnåriga universitet, men närheten till kontinenten har gett Lund en del speciella drag.

Arctic climate change research relies on field measurements and samples that are too scarce, and patchy at best. The researchers in the BECC action group looked at thousands of scientific studies, and found that around 30% of cited studies were clustered around only two research stations in the vast Arctic region. A paper in Nature Ecology & Evoloution was one of the result from the action group "
