Continuity in healthcare can improve health outcomes of patients by ensuring that patient-specific information is not lost in translation between providers, and by improving the appropriate follow-up care. Yet, little is known about how patients cope with the sudden and permanent loss of a main provider in healthcare, such as a primary care practice. The findings in a new PhD thesis from Lund Univ

A year has passed since Anne L’Huillier became Lund University’s first Nobel laureate. Since then, she has tried to use the attention to revive interest in research. But she has also had to come to terms with the oddity of becoming a science rock star asked for selfies all over town. What do you remember most about that very special day, the 3rd of October 2023?Well, what I remember most is, of co

Researchers from Lund University, building on previous studies, have been working to understand why stem cells are transforming into cancer. Previously they revealed that small RNA molecules, long considered “junk” or degradation byproducts of RNA-sequencing, are emerging as key regulators of important cellular processes, like protein synthesis. Their latest discovery is published in Nature Cell B

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Pollinating insects are endangered globally, with a particularly steep decline over the last 40 years. An extensive 3-year study from the CEC has found that organic farming methods can contribute to halting the pollinator decline. This beneficial effect is due to both the absence of insecticides and a higher provision

Thomas Pugh, principal investigator at BECC and researcher at MERGE, is one of the researchers behind a new study that is published in Science. In the study, the researchers compared results from three major modeling approaches that provide information on different aspects of risk on the impact of climate change on forests in the 21st century. Forests harbor enormous biodiversity and are a major c

Wild bees that ingest the neonicotinoid clothianidin when they feed from nectar of rapeseed flowers grown from clothianidin-coated seeds, become lethargic. In addition, strawberries pollinated by these bees become smaller. These are the results of a study conducted by three BECC researchers at Lund University. Wild and managed bees are important providers of pollination services and benefit the pr
