Can games serve as a method for spreading knowledge and inspiring action? If you ask Karl Sterner Isaksson and Jagdeep Singh, the answer is an obvious yes! They are both currently working on games about biodiversity and food waste, respectively, and they see games as a way to transform complex environmental challenges into something understandable, engaging – and fun!

The new broad-spectrum method targets physical properties in the genome of the virus rather than viral proteins, which have previously been targeted. The treatment consists of new molecules that penetrate the protein s

Supraledare är material som kan leda elektricitet utan motstånd och används bland annat i elektromagneter, antenner och kraftledningar. Nu har forskare studerat en mångfacetterad supraledare som uppvisar ett så kallat virvelgitter när den utsätts för ett magnetfält. Upptäckten kan komma att revolutionera den tekniska utvecklingen.

Förståelse för hur temperaturen förändrats genom historien hjälper forskare att dra viktiga slutsatser om framtidens klimat. I en ny studie har svenska och kinesiska klimatforskare lyckats lägga ett tusenårigt pussel över Arktis historiska temperaturförändringar. Under de senaste decennierna har temperaturerna i Arktis stigit 2–3 gånger snabbare än den globala medeltemperaturen. Fenomenet kallas a

Strutsen har genetiska förutsättningar att anpassa sig till stigande eller sjunkande temperaturer. Men när temperaturen fluktuerar oftare, som den gör i klimatförändringarnas spår, får den flygoförmögna bjässefågeln med 40-gramshjärna det betydligt svårare. Förra året kunde ett forskarlag vid Lunds universitet konstatera att strutsen är mycket känslig för växlande temperaturer i samband med äggläg

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a faster method to generate functional brain cells, called astrocytes, from embryonic stem cells. Astrocytes play a significant role in neurodegenerative diseases. The new method reduces the time required to produce the cells from months to two weeks, and the study has been published in Nature Methods. “This means that it is now easier than b
