A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the presence or absence of moonlight has a considerable bearing on when migratory birds take flight in the autumn. Together with colleagues at the Department of Biology at Lund University, Gabriel Norevik studied European nightjars (Caprimulgus europaeus) and how the lunar cycle and moonlight affect the departure time when the birds start their

Bumblebees have a great capacity to navigate despite their small brain size. This is borne out of new research conducted at Lund University in Sweden, among others. The research results can potentially benefit the development of navigation robots in crisis situations where GPS does not work, for example. According to the study, bumblebees appear capable of navigating as well as vertebrates can, an

MultiPark researchers have discovered a new promising pharmacological approach stimulating recovery after stroke. Professor Tadeusz Wieloch tells about how the MultiPark Innovation Office supported the first steps in converting their academic research findings into something with commercial potential that may finally benefit the patients. Around 80% of people who suffer a stroke permanently lose s

Doctoral students living on relatively low external scholarships should get terms of employment that are more equal to those on doctoral studentships. This is the hope of the University’s Education Board, which has approved the faculties topping up the income of doctoral students on scholarships. However, the Faculty of Law and the University’s employment lawyers have registered reservations again

Past cycles of climate change, along with human exploitation, have led to only small and isolated stocks of Atlantic walrus remaining. The current population is at high risk of the same issues affecting them severely, according to a new study led by Lund University in Sweden. Today, the last remaining stocks of Atlantic walrus are more at danger than ever, due to a combination of Arctic warming an

High spirits, a magnificently versatile show, and long beer queues, as Lund University staff and students celebrated the 350th anniversary with a big birthday bash. But the party came close to not being held on historic ground. Photo: Kennet Ruona.

Currently, it can take weeks and even months to produce results on how the future climate could affect agriculture. Now, researchers at Lund University are looking to change this and have produced simplified models, so-called emulators, to make it simpler – and above all, faster – to link vegetation, finance and climate models. In their project, Stefan Olin, researcher at the Department of Physica

The interactions between molecules are the foundation of life and how we treat diseases using medicinal drugs. But what does it actually look like when a protein meets another molecule and binds to it? A new research project that has been awarded EUR 8.7 million by the European Research Council now aims to shed light on this elusive process. The research team consists of researchers from Lund Univ

Eight days. That's how long it takes for skin cells to reprogram into red blood cells. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden, together with colleagues at Center of Regenerative Medicine in Barcelona, have successfully identified the four genetic keys that unlock the genetic code of skin cells and reprogram them to start producing red blood cells instead. "We have performed this experiment on mi

Africa, despite its large area and thus large impact on the global carbon cycle, is relatively unexplored with respect to ecosystem functions and impact on climate change. Now one of few in situ studies over a long period of time, 2010-2022, shows that the Sahel area has lost a lot of its power as a carbon sink during the time period examined.
