Trump’s intervention in Venezuela was physical, concrete, and armed. What is happening now is decisive for the country’s future, but it also affects the entire region, according to Andrés Palacio, researcher at LUSEM. Historically, the United States has on several occasions asserted Central America, the Caribbean, and South America as its sphere of interest. Since the end of the Second World War,

Global e-waste levels continue to rise, posing serious challenges to human health and the environment. Observed annually on January 24, Circular Electronics Day raises awareness about this escalating crisis and promotes sustainable practices such as more sustainable production, extending product lifespans, repairing, buying second-hand, and recycling responsibly. This initiative empowers both cons
There is a constant war between bacteria and their viruses, bacteriophages, where both try to outsmart each other. An international study led by Lund University provided an important missing bit to the puzzle of how the bacteria defend themselves against phages. This is an important stepping stone towards developing effective phage-based therapies to be used as an alternative to antibiotics. Bacte

It takes a long time, up to several decades, before the benefits of organic farming take full effect on land that was previously cultivated conventionally, a new study from Lund University suggests. After thirty years, the plant species richness around the cultivated crop had doubled on organic farms compared to conventional farms. It is well known that organic farming benefits biodiversity and ca

According to a new study from Lund University in Sweden, approximately one in five Swedes are already choosing not to buy American brands. The majority would consider boycotting American products such as Coca-Cola in favour of European or Swedish alternatives. A study conducted by brand researchers at Lund University in Sweden, in cooperation with Norstat Sweden, shows that virtually all Swedish c

How can the Nordics ensure that world-leading research in cell and gene therapy reaches patients faster? This question brought 150 researchers, clinicians, companies, and ecosystem actors to Lund for the conference Finding the Path to the Patient – ATMP Development in Skåne and Beyond.

It is a catalyst that will modernise the Faculty of Science, both at Brunnshög and Sölvegatan. Dean Sven Lidin may have become “nearsighted, flabby and middle-aged” during his ten years in symbiosis with Science Village, but his future visions are more vital than ever. It is one of those pale September mornings when there is one online meeting after another. But a few minutes after 11:00, the dean

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. New Lund students are generally younger and have better educated parents than the average Swedish student. This emerges from the figures in a new LU report. Despite a series of initiatives to attract more students from non-academic backgrounds in recent decades, there is little progress.
