Den tejpning av rekryters fötter som försvaret rekommenderar inför långa marscher, riskerar att ge livslånga kontaktallergier. Forskare vid Lunds universitet, har undersökt soldater vid ett par regementen och av de rekryter som undersökts uppvisade drygt 75 procent kontakteksem av tejpen. Under cirka tio år har försvaret rekommenderat sina rekryter profylaktisk tejpning av fötterna, för att föreby

Exercising too much and not getting enough rest is bad for your health. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the same is true for migratory birds. They need to rest not only to renew their energy levels but also in order to boost their immune system. After a period of physical exertion, vertebrates, including humans, usually need a period of recovery. Apart from the obvious – lowe

Carin Alegre Castegren When entering the lower gallery (KHM1) of Malmö Art Academy to see the MFA exhibition entitled “Tremeluz” by Carin Maria Alegre Castegren, I was met by numerous paintings, which all seemed to be in a state of flux. They had a lightness to them, an openness as well as something allusive. When reading the exhibition text, it was clear that Castegren had been thinking of light

To counter the effects of antibiotics, bacteria constantly evolve resistance mechanisms. In order to develop new antibiotics that could overcome the resistance, it´s essential to understand its workings. Using so-called cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) researchers at Lund and Hamburg universities have uncovered the molecular details of an important antibiotic resistance mechanism. This is t
