For the first time, researchers have been able to prove that city lights limit the ability of nocturnal animals to navigate by natural light in the night sky. Instead, they are forced to use streetlamps, neon light or floodlights to orient themselves. The findings are published in Current Biology. Some animals, including migratory birds, seals and moths, use light from the moon, stars and Milky Wa

How can the Nordics ensure that world-leading research in cell and gene therapy reaches patients faster? This question brought 150 researchers, clinicians, companies, and ecosystem actors to Lund for the conference Finding the Path to the Patient – ATMP Development in Skåne and Beyond. The message was clear: without early collaboration between research, manufacturing, and clinical practice, promis

While many people are happy at once again being able to meet in physical classrooms, it would be a shame not to take advantage of the fact that the vast majority of all teaching staff and students have learned to use digital tools for teaching. How, for example, can you get the best out of Zoom knowhow in the new normal – apart from the obvious, such as inviting in guest lecturers from other parts

We have spoken to and asked some questions to Andrea Dell’Isola, a physiotherapist and associate Proffesor at Lund University. Andrea trained to become a physiotherapist in Italy and specialized in orthopedic rehabilitation. He worked clinically as a physiotherapist for several years before starting his doctoral studies and his research career in 2015. Andrea's research primarily focuses on osteoa

The title of Mahwish Naseer´s thesis is "Why do older adults seek emergency care? Impact of contextual factors, care, health, and social relations". One important finding is that older people who were discharged home, instead of being admitted to inpatient care from the emergency department, were at higher risk of emergency care revisit within 30 days of the initial visit. What is your research ab

A review of the subject of Physics at Lund University is now being initiated. The aim is to gather input from an external expert panel on how the subject can be developed going forward. Particular focus will be placed on how organisational changes can strengthen the discipline and enhance its international impact. Physics at Lund University is currently represented at the Faculty of Engineering (L

Nature is a source of well-being and recovery for many people. However, research shows that there is also a growing number of individuals who experience negative emotions, such as fear, discomfort, or even disgust, toward nature. The phenomenon, called biophobia, is now highlighted in a new study from Lund University. “Research has long assumed that people fundamentally feel positive emotions towa
