An international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has managed to study the flight behaviour of the mysterious black swift. They found, among other things, that the black swift rises to extreme heights during a full moon, seemingly catching insects in the moonlight. And, during a lunar eclipse, the birds simultaneously lost altitude. The results are published in Current Biology. The b

A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the ability of microorganisms to adapt to climate warming will slow down global warming by storing carbon in soil. In the study, researchers collected soil samples from across Europe in a wide range of temperatures, from minus 3.1 to 18.3 degrees Celsius. The samples revealed that microorganisms in soils – such as bacteria and fungi – are stron

Researchers have for the first time found a connection between the immune systems of different bird species, and the various climatic conditions in which they live. The researchers at Lund University in Sweden believe that as the climate changes, some birds may be exposed to diseases that they are not equipped to handle. The results of the study indicate that evolution has calibrated the immune sy

For a long time, microRNAs were thought to have no important function. But Johan Jakobsson at Lund University is convinced that it is key DNA that can affect different brain diseases such as Parkinson's, Huntington's, Alzheimer's disease or psychiatric illnesses. Research to date has talked mostly about genes but Johan Jakobsson and his research team are putting the spotlight on microRNAs. MicroRN

In a new study published in Science Advances, researchers Gabriele Cobucci and Armin Tavakoli present a new method to analyze a complex form of quantum entanglement involving multiple particles. The new method opens the door to a deeper understanding of quantum mechanics, a field known for its strange and often counterintuitive phenomena. Quantum entanglement, where particles are coupled together
