Genom avancerade sedimentanalyser har ett forskarlag kartlagt europeiska klimatvariationer under de senaste 60 000 åren. Forskarna kan bland annat slå fast att det förekommit oförklarliga klimatsvängningar som varat mellan 20 och 150 år. I studien som publiceras i den vetenskapliga tidskriften Nature Geoscience kan forskarna presentera helt nya uppgifter om Europas historiska klimat. Tack vare sed

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Could green citizen journalism on social media be a way to solve China’s huge environmental problems? “Perhaps. Citizen journalism forces change. However, the authorities still believe that experts and more control from above will solve the problem of climate change.

A research team has created artificial animals that over time develop functioning vision from scratch – from simple light sensitivity to the ability to discern objects. This happened despite the fact that the digital creatures weren’t given any instructions. The results show how AI can be used to understand the inner secrets of evolution. Imagine that you are sitting in front of a computer. In the

I rollen som universitetets planeringschef har Tim Ekberg hanterat åtskilliga miljarder kronor. Men pengar intresserar egentligen inte. Han dras till konsten att finna balans bland ytterligheter. Att förhålla sig till kaos och ordning – till frihet och reglering. Tim Ekberg ser charmen i den frihetskänsla som råder på många håll inom universitetet. – Det är en öppen och ny­fiken arbetsplats i stän

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Stortorget, the main square in the centre of Malmö, has looked the same for the past 35 years or so but the way in which the city’s inhabitants use the space has changed.

Researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center have made new strides in understanding why some patients with chronic myeloid leukemia respond better to treatment than others. Their study, recently published in eLife, suggests that the amount of healthy blood stem cells at diagnosis could be a key factor in predicting how well patients will respond to standard therapies. Chronic myeloid leu

Förra året lanserade forskare i Lund en banbrytande teori om att jorden bildades av småstenar som under miljontals år sögs ihop till en himlakropp. Denna förklaringsmodell stärks nu ytterligare genom en ny studie som visar att även kosmiskt damm spelade en avgörande roll för vår planets tillblivelse. Den har kommit att kallas småstensteorin. Den radikala idén om att Tellus gick från att vara en be
