A new study from LUCSUS shows that the UN's sustainable development goals as a whole do not contribute to making us more resilient to cope with disruptive changes, such as climate change. The researchers behind the study believe that the next global agenda should put the relationship between ecosystems and humans in focus and start from flexible goals that promote transformative leadership and are

We expect a change in labour legislation that comes into force on 1 October this year. What is happening in the autumn is that general fixed-term employment, which is all fixed-term employment including hourly, but not temporary employment, disappears as a form of employment and is replaced by special fixed-term employment (Särskild visstidsanställning – SÄVA). The new preferential right requires

The increasing amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are causing our climate to warm at an alarming rate. The consequent changes are unprecedented, and difficult to predict due to the complexity of the Earth system.  While we know that half of the carbon emissions released to the atmosphere by fossil fuel usage are re-captured by the ocean and land ecosystems, we still lack knowledge when i

LUND SPRING SYMPOSIUM – When Katherine A. High began working with gene therapy, the field was new, promising – and riddled with uncertainty. Three decades later, she is a visiting professor at The Rockefeller University, CEO of RhyGaze AG, and former President and Head of R&D at Spark Therapeutics. Her research has led to life-changing treatments for patients with inherited diseases. But the road

Thanks to stem cell research, we now understand much more about the earliest stages of human development and what underlies many of our diseases. In recent years, the field has been revolutionised by several discoveries that have completely changed the landscape of stem cell research. Since its establishment as a strategic research centre, the Lund Stem Cell Center has become one of the strongest

Kajsa Brolin forskar om hur våra gener och vår miljö påverkar risken att utveckla Parkinsons sjukdom. Den 27 mars lägger hon fram sin avhandling som till stor del baseras på MultiParks egen biobank som innehåller prover från över 1000 skånska parkinsonpatienter. Här berättar hon om en nyligen upptäckt genetisk riskfaktor som verkar finnas specifikt i Skåne. Och skyddar verkligen kaffe mot Parkinso

Plantering av syntetiskt DNA, biometrisk utpressning av makthavare och genetisk hybridkrigföring. Det är några av de nya risker som har uppstått genom de forskningsframsteg som gjorts inom genetisk teknologi och kan utnyttjas i modern krigföring. Forskare vid Lunds universitet menar att vi behöver identifiera vilka de mest kritiska riskerna är och diskutera hur dessa kan förebyggas. Det internatio
