Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have succeeded in developing a simple hydrocarbon molecule with a logic gate function, similar to that in transistors, in a single molecule. The discovery could make electric components on a molecular scale possible in the future. The results are published in Nature Communications. Manufacturing very small components is an important challenge in both resear

The ostrich is genetically wired to adapt to rising or falling temperatures. However, when the temperature fluctuates more often, as it does with climate change, the flightless bird with a 40-gram brain finds it much more difficult. A research team at Lund University has shown that the ostrich is very sensitive to fluctuating temperatures in terms of whether it reproduces. If the temperature rises

Epigenetiken har gett forskare nya möjligheter att förstå orsakerna bakom typ 2-diabetes och hur sjukdomen utvecklas. I framtiden kan epigenetiska biomarkörer användas för att förutspå sjukdomen och individanpassa behandlingen. Forskare inom diabetes och epigenetik vid Lunds universitet sammanfattar de viktigaste framstegen i en översiktsartikel som publiceras i Nature Reviews Endocrinology. Orsak
