UN conference: Is it time for biodiversity to take centre stage?

Just over two weeks after the UN climate summit in Egypt, the leaders of the world’s countries are meeting again, this time to address another acute crisis facing humanity – the loss of biodiversity. The issue is less well-known than the climate crisis and no framework corresponding to the Paris agreement is in place – something that many people hope the December summit in Montreal will rectify. S

Causes of osteoarthritis mapped in new biobank

Through molecular studies of knee tissue and advanced synchrotron radiation imaging techniques, researchers hope to gain new insights into the early development of osteoarthritis. The hope is to pave the way for new treatments. For almost five years, researchers in Lund have been collecting knee tissue from over 700 people in a biobank. With the support of the Skåne University Hospital Tissue Bank

The climate crisis has received less media coverage during the corona pandemic despite that many think the climate challenges demand equally urgent attention. During the coming two weeks the United Nations gather the world in the Climate Dialogues 2020 “to increase the momentum for greater climate ambition” in an online format. Our climate researcher Markku Rummukainen comments on the event. When

EU payments to farmers fail to deliver on competitiveness and sustainability

Over 40 billion euro is given annually to European agriculture as direct payments under the Common Agricultural Policy. Yet, the policy fails to deliver on what EU citizens are promised. This is a key message from new research by AgriFood Economics Centre and Centre for Environmental and Climate Research at Lund University. Direct payments are area-based income support under the Common Agricultura

Colourful photo reveals cannibalism in galaxy cluster

Astronomers have managed to take unusually colourful images of a group of galaxies using a telescope in Hawaii. The photos reveal new facts about this spectacular galaxy cluster. Remnants of star matter attest to a phenomenon known as galactic cannibalism. At a distance of approximately 250 million light years from our planet lies a galaxy cluster called Stephan’s Quintet. It consists of several c
