The dance that binary stars do around each other offers new clues to the chemical evolution of our Galaxy, the Milky Way – so says a current research study. For the first time, researchers have identified the link between the orbiting times of certain binary stars and the amount of iron in their interiors. Binary star

Den som själv är aktiv lär sig mer än den som bara lyssnar på andra. Därför jobbar jag mycket med tvärgrupper på olika sätt i min undervisning. Grundidén är att alla studenter ska få möjlighet att prata mycket samtidigt som de blir motiverade att själva ta ansvar för samtalet och därmed för sitt eget lärande.

Work on Lund University's establishment in Science Village has continued this year, but with a new focus. At the end of 2024, the boards of LTH and the Faculty of Science decided not to proceed with scenario 5 – a co-location of the Department of Physics and the Department of Chemistry in the area – due to cost considerations and the challenges of running education across two sites.The project gro

Giving up research has never been an option for Ronald Kröger, professor in biology with a specialisation in fish lenses and dog noses. “I conduct research with all of my heart!” He is, however, at least as dependent on his brain – and it has really suffered. It is nearly five years since the Saturday morning when Ron

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered that sugar beets produce haemoglobin. They now hope that this haemoglobin could serve as a blood substitute – a substance that is currently in short supply.   Watch on YouTube: How to produce haemoglobin from sugar beets “Previously, it has been presumed that certain plants produce this iron protein only when stressed, such as in drought or

Researchers at Lund University, together with colleagues at the NIST Synchrotron Facility in the USA, have mapped on an atomic level what happens in a virus particle when the temperature is raised. “When the temperature rises, the virus’s genetic material changes its form and density, becoming more fluid-like, which leads to its rapid injection into the cell,” says Alex Evilevitch who led the stud

When you take a dip in a Swedish lake, it is not unusual to find you cannot see the lake bottom. Lake water coloured brown by organic material can be an inconvenience for swimming tourists, but mainly causes problems for the ecosystem and drinking water. Focusing on Lake Bolmen, researchers, public authorities and local organisations are now joining forces in a research project to find methods tha

Living forests with diverse plants and animals, forests where you can hike, hunt or pick berries and mushrooms – will they still be there when the pressure on forestry production increases? Is it possible to increase production in a sustainable way, without reducing the possibility of achieving environmental and sustainability goals?
