Mineraler och metaller behövs för batterier, motorer och för elektrifieringen. Men var gruvor ska etableras och hur man ska hantera deras påverkan är komplicerat och svårlöst. Tre forskare reflekterar kring om mineralutvinningen kan bli hållbar. Jakten på mineraler skapar nya konflikter. När efterfrågan på metaller till batterier och motorer ökar uppstår debatt om var gruvor ska ligga och vilken p

The emergence of a mysterious area in the South Atlantic where the geomagnetic field strength is decreasing rapidly, has led to speculation that Earth is heading towards a magnetic polarity reversal. However, a new study that pieces together evidence stretching back 9,000 years, suggests that the current changes aren’t unique, and that a reversal may not be in the cards after all. The Earth’s magn

Every year in June, the small harbour town of Allinge on the island of Bornholm turns into a large celebration of democracy. With more than 2,500 events created by 1,200 different organizations, Folkemødet (literally translated as 'The People’s Meeting') has become an important democratic event with the purpose of creating informal meetings and dialogue between decision-makers and citizens. Treatm

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Inkretinhormonerna GLP1 och GIP är som Yin och Yang för kroppens blodkärl. Medan GLP1 har associerats med skyddande effekter kan GIP enligt ny forskning bidra till ökad risk för stroke. Rönen presenteras i den vetenskapliga tidskriften Diabetes. Inkretinhormonerna GIP och GLP-1 utsöndras från tarmen när man äter och

Om Läkemedelsverket ger sitt godkännande kommer LUDC-forskare tidigt nästa år att inleda försök att vaccinera barn som är i riskzonen för att få typ 1 diabetes. Förhoppningen är att GAD-vaccinet ska förebygga ett insjuknande. - Vi vet inte om detta fungerar men det vore fantastiskt om vi kunde förhindra att barn får

When President Emmanuel Macron visits Studentafton on Wednesday, 31 January 2024, it is Sylvia Schwaag Serger, Professor of Economic History at LUSEM, who will moderate the conversation. As proud as we are curious, we asked her a few quick questions ahead of her exciting talk. How did it come about that you will be moderating the French President Emmanuel Macron when he visits Studentafton?  “I’m

Around 100 select astronomy books dating from 1545 to 1799 have been relocated from the Astronomy Library to the University Library. LUM was there as the books were packed away, and again, several months later, after they had been quarantined and it was time to catalogue, encapsulate and put them in storage. Next year, the rarest volumes will be digitalised and perhaps even be displayed. Outside A

Bone and skeletal injuries cause extensive and long-term functional impairments worldwide. In a new study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show how a cell-free cartilage structure can safely guide bone repair without triggering strong immune responses. The transplant has been successfully tested in animal models, and the next step is to evaluate the tissue engineering approach in humans.

Two researchers at Lund Stem Cell Center receive grants, 61 million, for research into immunological long-term memory and reprogramming of tumor cells. The research should lead to more effective vaccination strategies and immunotherapies. The Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation has granted SEK 835 million to 30 different projects in medicine, natural science and technology that are deemed to have

More than half a billion people are affected by type 2 diabetes – and the number is growing. In a recent publication in the journal Small, researchers explain how nanoelectroporation can be used to deliver molecules that can affect insulin expression through epigenetic means, potentially leading to new treatments. Genetics cannot explain type 2 diabetes, and epigenetics (i.e. chemical modification
