Properly managed, the agricultural sector in Europe can contribute to many of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by improving food security, reducing poverty and enhancing biodiversity. But new research shows that indicators to measure key SDGs such as health and equality are entirely missing fro
Our city centres and their development are a subject of constant debate. Ulf Johansson suggests that, if we let the market decide, our city centres will eventually be emptied of retail. Most recently, representatives from our food retailers suggested to municipalities that regulations on establishment locations be relaxed, advocating for the mantra of letting the market rule (Dagligvarunytt 2022a,

Nu är vi ungefär en tredjedel igenom EU:s ramprogram för forskning och innovation – Horisont Europa (2021–2027) – och kan börja se trender över hur det går för Lunds universitet och våra forskare. I universitetets nya forskningsstrategi 2023–2026 är målsättningen att LU ska bli Sveriges främsta deltagare i EU:s ramprogram, såväl sett till antal projekt som beviljade medel. Hittills når också Lunds

En stor studie ledd från Lunds universitet har identifierat ett protein i blodet som kan förutse typ 2-diabetes upp till nitton år innan symtomen visar sig. Studien är publicerad i Nature Communications. Typ 2-diabetes är en ökande global epidemi, sex procent av världens befolkning lider av sjukdomen.

Ett svenskt-amerikanskt forskarteam har nyligen publicerat två artiklar i Journal of Neurophysiology där de med ett nytt modellsystem förklarar ryggmärgens tidiga inlärning och hur centrala nervsystemet lär sig kontrollera kroppen. Det vill säga, hur kopplingarna mellan ryggmärgen och kroppen skapas samt hur andra delar av hjärnan kopplar in sig mot ryggmärgen. – Detta är relevant ur ett djupt gru

Dr. Olle Lindvall, recently awarded a jubilee doctorate from Lund University, has spent more than fifty years studying the brain and how to repair it. His work has turned ideas that once seemed like science fiction into scientific reality. Looking back on his journey from curious medical student to clinical neuroscientist, he talks about his accomplishments, the challenges he faced, and gives advi

An army of intelligent robots is growing in front of us, but also opportunities to alter people’s DNA, create super babies and, perhaps, to encounter life in space.“Human beings have always dreamed of

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In recent decades, the climate in Sweden has become about two degrees warmer on average and this year we have seen an unprecedentedly mild winter and early spring. How is nature responding – animals, insects, plants – to an increasingly mild climate? Researchers in Lund can provide the answer. Among other things, a ne

In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the “recipe” for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University have now created a library of the 400 factors needed for reprogramming and have begun the work of finding the right combination – the recipe – for each type of immune cell. Our immune system consists of different typ
