This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. We find ourselves in trying times. Much of what we know and take for granted is being turned on its head. Around the world, we see the spread of the coronavirus affecting country after country. As an international student, you are far away from your loved ones at a time when your studies, mobility, travel and socialis

The frustration with not being able to contribute to the difficult situation surrounding the covid-19 pandemic led researchers at LUPOP to launch a matchmaking initiative. Their idea is to help researchers with clinical background, now needed in healthcare, by supporting their research and application work. As COVID-19 spreads throughout the world, public interest in epidemiology has increased sig

Hur vi känner inför naturen påverkar vilka trädgårdsinsatser vi väljer och hur mycket de faktiskt hjälper pollinatörer. I en ny studie från Lunds universitet blir sambandet extra tydligt mot bakgrund av samhällets omfattande urbanisering, där både gröna ytor och människors praktiska naturkontakt minskar. Forskarna visar också att trädgårdar blir mest värdefulla när långlivade planteringar priorite

Vissa svampar slösar, andra återvinner – och det kan avgöra hur mycket kol som stannar kvar i skogen. Forskare har nu avslöjat hur svamparna hanterar sitt mycel, nätverket som bygger upp svampens kropp. Resultaten kan ge nya insikter om kolcykeln och klimatets framtid. Forskare vid Lunds universitet har undersökt hur svampar återvinner sitt eget mycel när de växer. Med hjälp av mikrofluidikchip –

Små förändringar i vattenhalt kan få fettmolekyler i biomaterial att omorganisera sig. Detta kan påverka hur huden, lungorna och tårvätskan skyddar oss mot uttorkning. En ny upptäckt från Lunds universitet kan inspirera till smarta material och nya läkemedelstekniker. Kroppens barriärer – så som hud och lungmembran – utsätts ständigt för vattenavdunstning. Fettmolekyler och proteiner bygger strukt

Det finns en liten cyklop bland dina äldsta förfäder. Det visar ny forskning om ögats evolution. Vi människor delar dessa uppseendeväckande släktrötter med alla andra ryggradsdjur. Forskare vid Lunds universitet har i en ny studie kommit fram till att alla ryggradsdjur har utvecklats via en avlägsen förfader som hade ett enda öga, placerat högst upp på huvudet.

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have succeeded in restoring mobility and sensation of touch in stroke-afflicted rats by reprogramming human skin cells to become nerve cells, which were then transplanted into the rats’ brains. The study has now been published in the research journal PNAS. “Six months after the transplantation, we could see how the new cells had repaired the damage that a s

Farming practices have the potential to slow climate change by pulling carbon from the air and store it in the soil. A new study from LUCSUS has identified seven ways in which farmers can increase carbon sequestration. It also found that woody perennials took up more than annual crops, suggesting that winegrowing could be particularly favorable for carbon soil storage. – What can farmers do to hel
