Every person ages, yet only some develop Parkinson’s Disease, and scientists still don’t know why. A new international effort involving a research team from Lund University aims to uncover what makes certain aging brains more vulnerable than others, focusing on the epigenetic changes that accompany growing older. Their work is supported by a new 81 million SEK grant from the Aligning Science Acros

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In our everyday lives, we surround ourselves with electronics without really thinking about it. We go to work by car or train, travel by air when we go on holiday, and are reliant on our mobile phones, iPads and laptops. We take the products’ functions for granted, until they suddenly stop working. The fact is that th

The large-eyed bristle worm Vanadis has long been of interest to the world’s vision researchers. But the worm has been difficult to study since it lives in the open sea and is active at night. Now, a research team has succeeded in locating an Italian worm colony and is able to confirm that the worm has a completely unique vision.

Forskare har undersökt möjligheterna till oberoende, global övervakning av koldioxidutsläpp från fossila bränslen globalt, baserat på satellitobservationer. Detta skulle förbättra kvaliteten på övervakningen jämfört med dagens, som bygger på individuell rapportering från länder. Tre forskare från vår institution bidrog till denna studie. I det uppdaterade Parisavtalet från COP26 Climate Summit tog
