For generations, Indigenous and riverine communities in the Amazon have relied on deep ecological knowledge to live in harmony with the rainforest. But, as climate disasters reshape the woodlands, local expertise is often overlooked in environmental policies and scientific studies. A new research project aims to change that. In 2023 and 2024, the Amazon faced severe droughts. Rivers dried up, cutt

När covid-19-pandemin svepte över världen 2020 blev mRNA-vaccinerna räddningen för många – men i bakgrunden fanns en annan, mindre känd hjälte: lipidnanopartikeln. Utan dessa små ”fettdroppar” hade vaccinet aldrig kunnat levereras in i kroppens celler. Och faktum är att den lär få fler uppdrag framöver. Det kan vara den som löser leverans av gensaxen och de nya genterapierna in i kroppen. När värl
