Drygt två veckor efter klimatmötet i Egypten möts ledare från världens länder på nytt, denna gång för att hantera en annan akut kris som mänskligheten står inför – förlusten av biologisk mångfald. Frågan är mindre känd än klimatkrisen och något ramverk motsvarande Parisavtalet finns inte på plats – något många hoppas att det kommande toppmötet i Montreal i december ska ändra på.

Borders don’t just divide nations — they define our bodies too. At the skin and in the gut, our barrier organs form the frontline of defense against infection. Here, diverse communities of friendly microbes, the microbiota, help maintain health and keep these borders strong, backed up by an immune system ready to deploy antibodies against any intruder. Protecting these barrier organs is central to

Mammography screening supported by artificial intelligence (AI) is a safe alternative to today’s conventional double reading by radiologists and can reduce heavy workloads for doctors. This has now been shown in an interim analysis of a prospective, randomised controlled trial, which addressed the clinical safety of using AI in mammography screening. The trial, led by researchers from Lund Univers

Poverty reduction globally is one of the UN’s primary goals. But how can wealth and economic development be measured in a smart way? Artificial intelligence, AI, and satellite photos are able to give more effective and precise measurements, but will remote sensing technology ever be able to replace time-consuming interview surveys? In rich countries, GDP is the most common measure of a country’s w

They have studied the amount of particles we actually emit

Blodproppar kan uppstå både i artärer och vener. Men orsakerna bakom skiljer sig åt, liksom konsekvenserna och möjligheterna att förebygga blodpropp. I Sverige har nästan hälften av alla fall av venös blodpropp en genetisk förklaring. Nu har ett forskarteam från Lunds universitet upptäckt tre genvarianter som ökar risken för benpropp med upp till 180 procent. Det är skillnad mellan arteriella och
