This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. For the first time, a research team led by Lund University in Sweden has mapped out exactly what happens when spruce bark beetles use their sense of smell to find trees and partners to reproduce with. The hope is that the results will lead to better pest control and protection of the forest in the future. The Eurasian

One result of climate change is that spring is arriving earlier. However, migratory birds are not keeping up with these developments and arrive too late for the peak in food availability when it is time for breeding. By getting the birds to fly a little further north, researchers in Lund, Sweden, and the Netherlands have observed that these birds can give their chicks a better start in life. Globa

The past year has to a large extent been shaped by developments in the world around us. At this time last year, the government presented its Research and Innovation Bill, “Research and Innovation for the Future, Curiosity and Benefit”. The investments announced there triggered an intense period of work at the university, and many colleagues have had to set aside other tasks to respond to these ini

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The discovery that free electrons can move asymmetrically provides a deeper understanding of one of the basic processes in physics: the photoelectric effect. It was first described by Albert Einstein and explains how high frequency light releases electrons from a material. The results have been published in Physical R

Tetra Pak and Lund University join forces in a shared research project as part of WISE (The Wallenberg Initiative Materials Science for Sustainability), the largest-ever research initiative in materials science in Sweden. In this project, the target is the research and development of packaging materials that are fully recyclable and that contribute to reducing the CO2 footprint. According to the W

Using high-resolution spectroscopy, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have succeeded in mapping the atmosphere of an exoplanet located 322 light years from Earth. The knowledge gained about the hot gas surrounding the Jupiter-like planet is important for the understanding of Earth-like planets. WASP-189b is a planet outside our own solar system, with a dayside temperature of 3,200 degrees C

The fighting at Chernobyl has caused an increase in radioactive radiation levels. Aleh Cherp, a professor at the International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics (IIIEE), has studied energy security and Chernobyl. He thinks that the sanctions could lead to significant changes in the types of energy used in Europe. During the first days of the invasion, there was fighting close to the

Astronomers at Lund University in Sweden have found a group of stars in the Milky Way disk, that are most likely remnants from an unknown baby galaxy that was swallowed by the Milky Way over 10 billion years ago. Nothing like it has been discovered in the galaxy disk before. After the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago, space was a veritable Wild West. Stars formed inside huge gas clouds that collide

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Diabetes typ 2 är vanligare hos män som genomgått tidig pubertet, visar en studie vid Göteborgs universitet. Låg pubertetsålder hos män kan också kopplas till ökad risk för att sjukdomen, om den utvecklas, kräver insulinbehandling.

Science Village blir nu samlingspunkt för halvledarforskningen i Lund efter att Lars-Erik Wernerssons forskargrupp tagit plats i The Loop. Flytten förväntas ge nya möjligheter till samverkan, samt ett ökat samarbete med MAX IV, ESS och kommande Nanolab Science Village. Flytten beskrivs av Lars-Erik Wernersson som ”ett strategiskt kliv framåt”. Lars-Erik Wernersson är professor i nanoelektronik på

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

De tänkbara mekanismerna bakom är flera. - Ja, vi vet inte exakt hur detta går till men en tänkbar förklaring är att ändrade kostvanor och snabb tillväxt gör att barnen äter mer och det stressar de insulinpr
