Just like self-driving cars, we can expect autonomous ships to become more common in the coming years. However, two safety challenges which need to be solved along the way, and which are different for ships compared to cars, are navigation without GPS and remote control. In his research, Mårten Lager has developed user interfaces for remote control of ships, as well as positioning using water dept

Diabetes är den vanligaste orsaken till amputationer i västvärlden. Nu visar en internationell forskargrupp att blodfettssänkande läkemedel av typen fenofibrater minskar amputationsrisken med 36 procent. Orsakerna till att diabetespatienter kan tvingas amputera en del av en fot eller ett ben är flera. Dålig blodcirkulation, nedsatt känsel i fötterna och diabetiska förändringar av fotens anatomi är

Frågan om den akuta sockerbristen vid djupa insulinkänningar skadar hjärnan har undersökts många gånger men resultaten har varit motstridiga. Nu visar en studie på tonåringar med typ 1 diabetes att inte ens upprepade blodsockerfall med medvetslöshet eller kramper som följd på sikt påverkar hjärnan negativt. Hjärnan kan bara utnyttja socker som bränsle. Blir halten av socker för låg påverkar det om

Insekters DNA går att fånga in och upptäcka via luften. Det visar forskning från Lunds universitet. Tekniken, som är ny på insektsområdet, kan få stor betydelse för att kartlägga biologisk mångfald framöver och väntas komplettera den traditionella metoden, att samla in insekter med fällor.
