Vad äter tumlare i svenska vatten? I en ny studie tar forskare från Lunds universitet hjälp av dna-teknik för att kartlägga den lilla valens mångfacetterade matvanor. Torskfiskar, sillfiskar och smörbultar toppar tumlarens meny, men den trubbnosiga tandvalen verkar inte särskilt kräsen. En ny studie visar att tumlare i svenska vatten äter uppemot 40 olika bytesarter – från centimeterstora bottenfi

Is it possible to improve the antibodies that the body produces to fight SARS-CoV2? In a study led by researchers from Lund University in Sweden, this was investigated by redesigning antibodies and combining them against the virus. The modified antibodies have been tested in human cells and with mice. Many antibodies used to treat covid infection during the pandemic have been so-called neutralizin

Går det att förbättra antikropparna som kroppen tillverkar för att bekämpa SARS-CoV2? I en studie som publiceras i PNAS och som letts av forskare från Lunds universitet, har man undersökt detta genom att designa om antikroppar och kombinera dem mot viruset. De modifierade antikropparna har testats i möss och med mänskliga celler. Många av de antikroppar som använts för att behandla covid-infektion

En ny studie från Lunds universitet visar att skogar som har förstörts av bränder fortsätter att avge koldioxid långt efter att lågorna har slocknat. Enligt de nya beräkningarna kan det ta över 40 år innan all den koldioxid som frigjordes på grund av skogsbranden i Sverige 2018 har bundits av ny skog igen. Forskningsresultaten gäller den boreala skogen som sträcker sig över det norra halvklotet fr

The subject of degrowth awakes a lot of interest. Its critics are as vocal as its proponents. Fredrik N G Andersson, assistant professor at
