For hundreds of years, people have made a living from livestock herding in rural Kenya. Today, their traditional way of life is increasingly burdened by the effects of climate change and population growth. In his doctoral thesis, Billy Jones examines why development aid projects in the region often fail – and how sustainable progress could instead be achieved with the help of local actors. Thirtee

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. My recent research trip to Amazon, Colombia was a stark reminder that sustainability science is as much about being at the forefront of knowledge as it is about physically visiting man-made frontiers and conflict areas. I think this has to do with the importance to connect with local communities and people and try to

Svetlana Soboleva is set to defend her Ph.D. thesis on 13 April, 2022. For the past few years her world has revolved around red blood cells, as she has worked to establish methods that allow for the generation of enucleated cells, using immortalized erythroid cell lines, to develop erythrocytes. In short, she’s been working to find ways to produce red blood cells in a lab. In this interview she te

Runt 15 miljoner barn i världen föds för tidigt, prematurt, varje år. Bland de extremprematura barn som överlever finns stor risk för svåra komplikationer. Ett protein, tillväxtfaktorn IGF-1, har visat sig spela stor roll för den prematura hjärnans utveckling. I en ny avhandling vid Lunds universitet har viktiga transportmekanismer hittats för proteinets väg in i den omogna hjärnan. – Komplikation

I förra veckan ändrades rekommendationerna angående testning vid misstänkt covid-19 i Sverige. Då ingen nationell statistik förs över de antigentester (snabbtester) som tas runtom i landet hemma eller på privata testcenter så blir det svårt att utläsa trender i smittläget utifrån teststatistiken de kommande veckorna. Tidiga signaler från källor som inte är beroende av PCR-testning, såsom symtomöve
