Mellan 2003 och 2019 har nästan en fjärdedel av Sveriges sista gamla oskyddade naturliga skogar försvunnit. Med nuvarande skövlingstakt kommer dessa ekologiskt värdefulla skogar att vara borta om 50 år. Det visar en studie av bland andra forskare från Lunds och Umeå universitet. En mindre del av Sveriges oskyddade produktiva skogar består av gammal skog som sannolikt aldrig tidigare kalhuggits. De

Personer med neurodegenerativa sjukdomar, såsom kognitiva sjukdom och personer med Parkinson, går långsammare, tar kortare steg och har en ökad variabilitet i sin gång än kognitivt friska. Detta är några aspekter som berörs i Magnus Lindh-Rengifos avhandlingsarbete. Att gå är alltså mycket mer komplicerat än man kanske tror. Och det finns flera sätt att bedöma gång inom forskningen. Man kan fokuse

An international team led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden has identified the molecular tools needed to reprogram ordinary cells into specialised immune cells. The discovery, published in Immunity, could pave the way for more precise and personalised cancer immunotherapies. The team has taken an important step toward harnessing the immune system to fight cancer. Their work describes how

Swedish old-growth forests store 83 percent more carbon than managed forests, according to a new study from Lund University. The difference is substantially larger than previous estimates and is mainly due to large carbon stocks in the soil. The study, published in the scientific journal Science, is the most comprehensive mapping of how much carbon is stored in Swedish old-growth forests to date.

Numerous studies have suggested that eating a healthy diet may reduce a person’s risk of dementia. A new study from one of MultiPark's research groups, published in Neurology, sheds new light on the impact of having a Mediterranean diet. The Mediterranean diet includes a high intake of vegetables, legumes, fruits, fish and healthy fats such as olive oil, and a low intake of dairy products, meats a
