Martin Bech, senior lecturer in medical radiation physics, has been awarded a prestigious ERC Consolidator Grant. Over a five-year period, he will conduct several exciting projects within X-ray microscopy which, among other things, can be used to generate 3D images of human tissue. Over the past decade, the use of X-ray microscopy has increased in the world of research. In contrast to standard lig

Exercising too much and not getting enough rest is bad for your health. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the same is true for migratory birds. They need to rest not only to renew their energy levels but also in order to boost their immune system. After a period of physical exertion, vertebrates, including humans, usually need a period of recovery. Apart from the obvious – lowe

Tipping elements are regions that are vulnerable to climate change and capable of sudden drastic changes. However, it is not well understood to what degree tipping of one element in the system can influence other tipping elements. In this study, the researchers establish long-distance connections (teleconnections) between tipping elements using network analysis – thus applying a new approach in cl

Geologists at Lund University in Sweden have mapped 300 years of research on the prehistoric marine reptiles known as ichthyosaurs. Using a uniquely well-preserved fossil, the team has also created the scientifically most up-to-date reconstruction of an ichthyosaur currently available. Fish lizards, or ichthyosaurs, were a very successful group of animals that, much like today's whales, migrated f

Research at Lund University in Sweden has found a new way to create nano-sized magnetic particles using ultrafast laser light pulses. The discovery could pave the way for new and more energy-efficient technical components and become useful in the quantum computers of the future. Magnetic skyrmions are sometimes described as magnetic vortices. Unlike ferromagnetic states – which occur in convention

Living with bipolar disorder means constantly balancing between extremes – something that can be particularly difficult if the diagnosis is met with silence and stigmatisation. To raise awareness of mental illness and why it concerns us all, including at work, five LTH departments have joined forces and invited speaker Henrik Wahlström. In his lecture, he shares his own experiences of bipolar diso

Does negotiating Sweden's NATO membership mean that the government is prepared to tinker with basic human rights and values? According to two political scientists, there is a risk of this happening. In the summer of 2022, Turkey, Sweden and Finland proposed an agreement that would see Turkey's NATO applications approved. The agreement was signed at a NATO meeting in Madrid. Although Turkey suspend
