Lab experiments show that the chemical compound damsin found in the plant Ambrosia arborescens inhibits the growth and spread of cancer stem cells. The similar but synthetically produced ambrosin has the same positive effect, according to researchers at Lund University and University Major of San Andrés in La Paz, Bolivia. The plant Ambrosia arborescens grows at a high elevation in large parts of

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A new doctoral thesis from Lund University in Sweden shows how fruit flies use their sense of smell and humidity to find food, avoid dehydration and discover the best place to lay their eggs – in overripe marula fruits. Faeces from herbivores are also suitable, but the flies reject carnivore excrement. Summer is high

Since antiquity, humans have been fascinated by birds’ intercontinental migratory journeys. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that two areas in their genome decide whether a willow warbler flies across the Iberian Peninsula to western Africa, or across the Balkans to eastern and southern Africa. Researchers have long known that the behaviour that causes songbirds to migrate in a spe

Synchrotron radiation helps vision researcher Emily Baird create three-dimensional images of how insects see the world. In the future, this could lead to sighted drones that navigate through the air like insects, without being remote controlled from the ground. “I enjoy research more than anything, and the most fun part is that I am forced to be creative and make constant progress, says Emily Bair

Since April, the second part of a sustainable mobility project, which is to examine all staff and students’ travel habits to and from campus, has been underway. The aim of the project is to reduce the negative impact of our travel to and from work/studies on sustainability and the environment. Lund University currently has around 8,000 employees and 46,000 students, which means a lot of people tra

Emissions from our air travel decreased in 2024, compared with the previous year. Air travel accounts for the main part of our emissions from business travel and therefore the total climate impact of our business travel has decreased, even though emissions from car travel have increased. Every year, in connection with its annual report, the University submits a report on our environmental manageme

Kristyan Nicholson When entering Kristyan Nicholson´s MFA exhibition TOMORROW HAS NEVER BEEN AS CLOSE AS IT IS RIGHT NOW, I was struck by how quiet the works were. There was an austere yet playful atmosphere, where I felt invited to investigate the potentiality myself, as Nicholson seemed to offer a series of wonderments to the viewer, through both sculpture and video using materials such as the s

Threats against researchers are increasing, according to acting chief security officer Håkan Jönsson, who received 16 reports of threats last year. The rise is in online threats, whereas the number of disruptive or violent people on campus is dropping – probably thanks to more locked doors. “But the hidden figures are

Carin Alegre Castegren When entering the lower gallery (KHM1) of Malmö Art Academy to see the MFA exhibition entitled “Tremeluz” by Carin Maria Alegre Castegren, I was met by numerous paintings, which all seemed to be in a state of flux.
