When it comes to meeting sustainability goals, the current reform proposal of the EU Commission on the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) falls well short at the mark, accordning to a group of international researchers writing in the journal Science. The proposed amendments to the CAP will not improve the environmental protection – rather the opposite, says Dagmar Clough, ecologist at Lund Universit

Stem cell transplantation is a cornerstone in the treatment of blood malignancies. In order to succeed, stem cells need to be harvested from a donor. This requires that hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) are mobilized from the donor’s bone marrow into the blood. In a new study, the Nilsson lab discovered DNA sequence variants that regulate HSPC levels in human blood, exposing potential

Plastic accounts for nearly eighty per cent of all waste found in our oceans, gradually breaking down into smaller and smaller particles. New research from Lund University investigates how nanosized plastic particles affect aquatic animals in different parts of the food chain. “Not very many studies have been done on this topic before. Plastic particles of such a small size are difficult to study”

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har utvecklat ett digitalt kognitivt test för diagnostisering av Alzheimers sjukdom, avsett att användas i primärvården. – Med det digitala testet, som patienten genomför själv, förbättras primärvårdsläkares möjlighet att tidigt i utredningsskedet avgöra vem som bör undersökas vidare genom blodprov för alzheimerpatologi, säger professor Oskar Hansson som lett studien

Sverige ligger i tiden just nu, och begrepp som ”lagom” och ”fika” används för att sälja allt från böcker till mode. Landet ses ofta som ett socialdemokratiskt mönsterland där människor är jämställda, rika och lyckliga. Med anledning av att möbeljätten IKEA:s grundare Ingvar Kamprad nyligen gick bort är det intressant att fundera över hur han och IKEA kan ha bidragit till att exportera den här Sve

Diabetessjukdomarna har haft många namn. Från de som fanns innan insulinbehandling introducerades, sjukdomen beskrevs då som en mild form, en svårartad och en farlig till dagens mångfald av olika diabetessjukdomar. Den alltmer brokiga bilden är ett resultat av de växande insikterna om orsaken till sjukdomen och om vilka olika sätt de ska behandlas. Den internationella Världsdiabetesdagen infaller

Allt fler svenska tatuerar sig och Sveriges befolkning är nu en av de mest tatuerade i Europa. Samtidigt ökar förekomsten av melanom. En ny epidemiologisk studie från Lunds universitet, tyder på att tatueringar kan vara en riskfaktor för melanom. Forskningsläget kring tatueringar och cancerMot bakgrund av det dåliga kunskapsläget kring långsiktiga hälsoeffekter av tatueringar, tillsammans med att

Ny teknik kan underlätta äldre personers aktivitet, men då måste de involveras i teknikutvecklingen. Det framgår i en ny avhandling av William Son Galanza, SWEAH-doktorand i forskargruppen Tillämpad gerontologi i Lund, som har tagit fram en AI-modell som kan kategorisera äldres vardagsaktiviteter. Den äldre befolkningen växer och teknikanvändningen ökar. – Teknik bidrar till bättre livskvalitet om

I år blir Leif Salford jubeldoktor. Dessutom kan han lägga ytterligare en i det närmaste unik titel till sin lista – jubelövermarskalk. För femtio år sedan hade han nämligen ansvaret för sin egen promotion! Leif Salford, professor emeritus i neurokirurgi, har verkat inom akademin i hela sitt vuxna liv. Som forskare, lärare – och festfixare. För finns det en anledning att fira ska det firas, det är

The jet-setting habits of Bill Gates and Paris Hilton mean that they produce an astonishing 10,000 times more carbon emissions from flying than the average person. This was the conclusion of my research mining their social media accounts (tweets, Instagram and Facebook posts) as well as those of a number of other celebrities for clues as to where they were in the world over the course of 2017 and

Consumers are demanding cheaper clothing while more are becoming aware and reassessing their consumption: second hand rather than “fast fashion”. The sustainability challenges of clothing companies often have to do with long supply chains – and the consumers’ demands. But together, consumers, businesses and politicians can change the fashion industry, according to Johan Jansson, researcher in busi

By assigning a barcode to stem cells, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have made it possible to monitor large blood cell populations as well as individual blood cells, and study the changes over time. Among other things, they discovered that stem cells go through different stages where their ability to restore immune cells varies. The new findings provide important information for the rese

A fingerprint has been found in the tars used to build the oldest known wooden plank boat in Scandinavia, which provides a direct link to the seaborne raiders who used the boat over 2,000 years ago. By analysing the tar itself, Lund University researchers are closer to solving the long-standing mystery of where the attackers in the boat came from. In the 4th century BC, an armada of boats attacked

Just over two weeks after the UN climate summit in Egypt, the leaders of the world’s countries are meeting again, this time to address another acute crisis facing humanity – the loss of biodiversity. The issue is less well-known than the climate crisis and no framework corresponding to the Paris agreement is in place – something that many people hope the December summit in Montreal will rectify.
