Researchers at Lund University have contributed to creating a new, updated version of a global climate model that will increase understanding of global warming. Through the new model, one can now look at how land use and changes to vegetation can influence, and be influenced by, climate change. It is the first time th

In a new research article, PhD student Kelly Dorkenoo, together with researcher Murray Scown, and Director Emily Boyd, examines disproportionality in loss and damage from climate change. She argues that disproportionality in loss and damage from climate change is fundamentally about equity and justice, but while it is central in L&D policy, it has been treated implicitly in research. What are the

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

Pesticide use in is an urgent concern for human health and the environment. New studies on pesticide practices in Ugandan smallholder agriculture highlight the need to focus on drivers and impacts of unsafe pesticide use instead of putting blame on farmers. Two recent research articles by LUCSUS researchers Elina Andersson and Ellinor Isgren show that while there is still a widespread notion that

Researchers at Lund University, together with colleagues at the NIST Synchrotron Facility in the USA, have mapped on an atomic level what happens in a virus particle when the temperature is raised. “When the temperature rises, the virus’s genetic material changes its form and density, becoming more fluid-like, which leads to its rapid injection into the cell,” says Alex Evilevitch who led the stud

Frontotemporal dementia begins relatively early compared to other forms of dementia. We still know relatively little about what causes the disease, however, new research from Lund University in Sweden shows that the folds in the brain that are formed in the latter stages of pregnancy could have an impact on the age at which the disease takes hold. Those affected by frontotemporal dementia usually

By using cells isolated from cancer patients and mixing them with a new technology called “OssiGel”, it is possible to engineer human mini-bones. These miniaturized organs consist of mature bone and marrow tissue and can be used as model to study the disease mechanisms behind cancers that arise in bone marrow or spread to the bones, and offer the personalized testing of new drugs.
