Det pågår ett ständigt krig mellan bakterier och deras virus, bakteriofager, där båda försöker överlista varandra. I en internationell studie som letts från Lunds universitet, har forskarna nu lyckats förstå grunderna i hur en av bakteriernas försvarsystem mot fagattackerna fungerar. Det är en viktig pusselbit för att få fram effektiva fagterapier som alternativ till antibiotika. Bakteriofager – o

“Do you want to see what a box jellyfish sees and experiences when it rides a roller-coaster?” “We humans believe that what we see is reality, but it isn’t. It is an eminently human reality, filtered through our eyes. The visual world of animals shows different realities”, says Dan-Eric Nilsson. Almost 40 years have passed since Dan-Eric Nilsson arrived in Lund from Gothenburg as a doctoral studen

From waste to green gold: Lund's role in the transition of one of Europe's most polluted citiesMalgorzata Mańka-Szulik, mayor of Zabrze in Poland, was impressed with what she saw – a city with a waste management system resulting in as little as 3 per cent waste going to landfills.“She looked at me and said: ‘I want my

Med hjälp av neutron- och röntgentomografi har ett forskarlag, lett från Lunds universitet, undersökt en meteorit från Mars. Tekniken, som förmodligen kommer att användas när Nasa runt 2030 hämtar hem prover från vår röda grannplanet, visade att meteoriten utsatts för mycket begränsad påverkan av vatten. I ett moln av rök landade Nasas fallskärmsförsedda rymdrover Perseverance på Mars dammiga yta

Forsknings­områdena är desamma, men hur vi ser på dem har förändrats. Så beskriver konsumtionsforskarna Carys Egan-Wyer och Emma Samsioe utvecklingen inom handels­forskningen de senaste tio åren. – I en av våra senaste rapporter kallar vi det ”Retail as unusual”. Det finns inget normalläge längre inom handeln, inget ”Business as usual”. Allt har blivit mer osäkert, säger Carys Egan-Wyer, universit

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. It worked out – in the end. The enormous European investment in food development, “Food KIC”, did not go to the consortium of which Lund University was a part in 2016. But that was then. Now the board of the winning network, EIT Food, has decided that Lund University is to become a full member of their network instead

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. As odd as it sounds, many scientists have attempted to place extremely small diamonds inside living cells. Why? Because nanodiamonds are consistently bright and can give us unique knowledge about the inner life of cells over a long time. Now physics researchers Elke Hebisch and Christelle Prinz from the strategic rese

Lund University is establishing a university-wide development center for advanced therapies, LU-ATMP. It is an effort to move medical research with the potential for new groundbreaking therapies to reach patient groups where traditional medicines are not enough. "We want to contribute to the vision of Sweden becoming a world leader in the development and availability of advanced therapies," says E

For six months, Jennifer Rainsford will be Artist in Residence at MAX IV – and will explore the research laboratories for synchrotron light. Inside the ring-shaped MAX IV building on the outskirts of Lund, extremely intense X-ray light known as synchrotron light is produced. The light, which is not visible to the naked eye, is used by researchers from around the globe to study materials, molecules

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A changing climate means that citizens will have to take more action to safeguard their lives and property from extreme weather events. At the same time, there are great differences in people’s capacities and resources to do so. In a new PhD dissertation from LUCSUS, researcher Ebba Brink asserts that it is about time

A novel research report maps how workers are experiencing efforts to decarbonise the steel industry in Sweden. It identifies how people’s expectation of change is marked by previous transitions, that blue- and white-collar workers view transitions differently, and how work is a source of great pride to people. "Our aim was to explore the societal impacts of change in different places. Through inte
