Researchers have succeeded in restoring lost brain function in mouse models of stroke using small molecules that in the future could potentially be developed into a stroke recovery therapy. “Communication between nerve cells in large parts of the brain changes after a stroke and we show that it can be partially restored with the treatment”, says Tadeusz Wieloch, senior professor of neurobiology at

Swapping concrete and asphalt for trees, ponds and green roofs is an example of how cities can be adapted to cope with heavy rain and climate change. But time is running out. For nature-based solutions to have a global impact, we need to act fast, according to researchers. A late summer’s day in August 2014, 100 mm of rain fell over the course of a 24-hour period in the Sofielund area in Malmö. Ba

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Eva Nordmark was 62 when she received her Alzheimer’s diagnosis. But rather than life ending, it gave her the chance to reclaim parts of her life that she had not previously had time for. It is a sunny autumn day at the Humlamaden rehab centre outside Veberöd, and the stable is full of life and activity. The 32-year-o

With a month to go until the Football World Cup, we ask: how do you build a winning team? Having a coach who has done their emotional homework and is good at establishing psychological security is important. Clearly defined roles and a communicative team can also increase the chances of winning gold, argues Simon Granér, researcher in sports psychology and team performance. The 2022 European Champ

The economic sanctions against Russian following the invasion of Ukraine are having spillover effects in Central Asia. With the prospect of economic and social strain forcing Russian employers to lay off migrant workers, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan are preparing to receive high numbers of newly unemployed men.

Investigation of a metre-long front flipper, uniquely preserved with fossilized soft tissues, has revealed that the giant ichthyosaur Temnodontosaurus was equipped with flow control devices that likely served to suppress self-generated noise when foraging in dimly lit pelagic environments about 183 million years ago. Thus, this visually guided megapredator relied on underwater stealth—or ‘silent s

When LINXS moved from its old premises at Ideon to The Loop in Science Village in March, the institute became the first research environment from Lund University to make the move to Brunnshög. Since then, activities have more than doubled, new collaborations have emerged, and the team’s mood is distinctly optimistic.I met with Anna Ntinidou, Head of Administration, Noomi Egan, Communications Offic

Continuity in healthcare can improve health outcomes of patients by ensuring that patient-specific information is not lost in translation between providers, and by improving the appropriate follow-up care. Yet, little is known about how patients cope with the sudden and permanent loss of a main provider in healthcare, such as a primary care practice. The findings in a new PhD thesis from Lund Univ

The proposal from the European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change (ESABCC) would see agricultural subsidies phased out for the activities that cause the most damage to the climate, whilst increasing carbon sequestration and introducing specified pricing for emissions. Five researchers from Lund University in Sweden share their views on whether the EU’s agri-food system can cope with the t

In our recent study in Nature Communications, we employed cutting-edge proteomics to explore changes in blood plasma proteins during early HIV-1 infection. The results advance our understanding of early host responses and highlight mechanisms that influence viral control and disease progression.The Questions We AskedHIV-1 continues to challenge global health, especially in sub-Saharan Africa where

The MAX IV facility, set to become the brightest x-ray source in the world in 2016, has now been handed over to Lund University by the building contractor. Covering 50 000 square metres, the facility consists of a linear accelerator, storage rings, an office building and outdoor environments. It will now become the workplace for MAX IV’s 240 members of staff; in future the facility will be able to

How can life-saving HIV treatments remain reliable when global aid is uncertain? What happens when animals are reduced to “carbon emissions” in sustainability debates? And how can urban forests be made safe at night without flooding them with artificial light, disturbing local wildlife?

Work on Lund University's establishment in Science Village has continued this year, but with a new focus. At the end of 2024, the boards of LTH and the Faculty of Science decided not to proceed with scenario 5 – a co-location of the Department of Physics and the Department of Chemistry in the area – due to cost considerations and the challenges of running education across two sites.The project gro

Hunting in Sweden has a long history and could be considered a cultural heritage. Wildlife management and a sense of local community and stewardship are important keywords to describe recreational hunting. However, in recent years there has been an emerging market for commercial hunting, where hunters can buy the right to hunt on someone else’s land, where hospitality services and guiding are ofte

Honeybees are common pollinators, but other insects such as hoverflies, beetles and butterflies, and wild bees, including bumble bees, are also needed for pollination and are important in many different ways. With simple measures, we can help these insects thrive so they can contribute to a diversity of wild flowers, crops and rich nature experiences. Oilseed rape, apples, strawberries and field b
