Uteupplevelser har trendat så här i coronatider, när familjemedlemmar ska rastas och social distansering samtidigt tillämpas. Varför inte bota din eller barnens artblindhet när ni ändå är ute? All forskning visar att ju mer man vet om naturen, desto mer villig är man att värna den. Här kommer tips på tio vanliga – och de flesta även ätbara – växter att leta efter, i staden eller på skogsutflykten.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The most common form of childhood cancer is acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Together with Karolinska Institutet, SciLifeLab and the University of Cambridge, researchers at Lund University have conducted the largest ever analysis of ALL at protein level by studying activity in more than 8,000 genes and proteins.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Stem cell researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a new research model of the early embryonic brain. The aim of the model is to study the very earliest stages of brain to understand how different regions in the brain are formed during embryonic development. With this new insight, researchers hope to be

In recent years, great advances have been made in the development of new successful immunotherapies to treat cancer. CAR T-cell therapy and antibody treatments are two types of targeted immunotherapies that have revolutionised areas of cancer care. However, there are still significant challenges in the identification of cancer cell surface proteins as targets for immunotherapies. A research group

Food preparedness has in a short time become a central issue in both research and public debate. The way we produce, distribute and consume food is shaped by global dependencies, climate change and an increasingly uncertain global situation. LTH’s Cecilia Tullberg is the director of FORCE, a knowledge centre that brings together researchers from multiple disciplines and actors across Sweden’s food

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A new experimental and clinical study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the sleep hormone melatonin impairs insulin secretion in people with a common gene variant.

One day per semester the doctoral students at LUSEM get to attend faculty-wide seminars and activities. It’s about getting to know each other a bit more, getting some inspiration and of course learning things as well. We got to talk about it with HJ Holm, who is our Vice Dean for research education. “When I took over the responsibility for third-cycle education as Vice Dean, I got the impression t

What can 100,000 Swedish kronor in research funding lead to? For Yulia Vakulenko and her research team at Campus Helsingborg, Lund University, the answer was new knowledge, new methods and international recognition from OpenAI. The research team, led by Yulia Vakulenko and based at REAL – the Centre for Retail and Logistics at Lund University, has received a Token of Appreciation from OpenAI. This

Teaching is to be as highly valued as research when it comes to appointments and promotions. Despite this ambition, it has rarely worked that way in practice. A recently completed project provides a new framework which will help faculty managements, as well as individual teaching staff members, to evaluate and develop educational qualifications. In the ‘Pedagogisk Meritering’ project, which concer

Climate research in the Arctic is being hit hard as collaboration with Russian researchers is put on ice. “It’s impossible to get an overall picture of the Arctic without looking at Russia. If this becomes permanent, we will be thrown back 20 years,” says Margareta Johansson, who leads the unique research project INTERACT, which incorporates researchers from all eight Arctic countries.

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Arbetsmiljö. Vem är du – en separerare eller kanske en integrerare? Mobiler och bärbara datorer har skapat ett arbetsliv där det är möjligt att jobba när och var som helst.

Principen ”barnets bästa” ska alltid styra när rättvisan har att göra med barn, från vårdnadstvister till bestraffning av minderåriga. Men ny forskning från rättssociologen i Lund visar att den högtflygande moraliska ansatsen ofta landar platt. Barnkonventionen – svensk lag sedan 2020 – är tydlig: barn har rätt att komma till tals i frågor som rör dem själva och ”barnets bästa” ska vara avgörande.

Effekterna av ett varmare Arktis är inte enbart av negativ betydelse för klimatet, visar en ny avhandling från Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap. Genom modellering kunde man bland annat se att en förflyttning av trädgränsen uppåt kunde öka kollagret då träd binder mer kol i sin biomassa än tundraväxter. Men resultaten är osäkra. Arktis – området norr om polcirkeln – värms upp minst dubbelt så
