Social media provides a new environment that makes it possible to carefully edit the image you want to project of yourself. A study from Lund University in Sweden suggests that many people are prepared to pay to ”filter out” unfavorable information. Economists Håkan Holm and Margaret Samahita have investigated how we curate our social image on the web using game theory. Previous studies have been

New research at Lund University in Sweden can now show what Stone Age people actually ate in southern Scandinavia 10 000 years ago. The importance of fish in the diet has proven to be greater than expected. So, if you want to follow a Paleo diet - you should quite simply eat a lot of fish. Osteologists Adam Boethius and Torbjörn Ahlström have studied the importance of various protein sources in th

Recent developments in neuroscience set high requirements for sophisticated data management, not least when implantable Brain Machine Interfaces are used to establish electronic communication between the brain’s nerve cells and computers. A new method developed by researchers at Lund University in Sweden makes it possible to recode neural signals into a format that computer processors can use inst

A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that even children with limited physical disabilities are at risk of developing mental issues later in life. Girls and adolescents from socio-economically vulnerable families are at greatest risk. The study was published in the reputable journal PLOS ONE. With the help of national register data, Lund researchers conducted a follow-up of more than 60

In her upcoming thesis at Lund University in Sweden, biologist Elin Videvall shows that the composition of gut bacteria in birds has a major impact on whether their offspring will survive their first three months. “My findings could be important for increasing survival rates”, she says. Microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses and fungi can cause diseases, but they can also promote health, affect

In a major study, biologists at Lund University in Sweden have studied the role of chance in whether a species survives or dies out locally. One possible consequence according to the researchers, is that although conservation initiatives can save endangered species, sometimes chance can override such efforts. Species that differ considerably in their ecology rarely have problems living in close pr

Today, transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is the leading cause of death following a blood transfusion. So far, it has not been treatable, but a researcher at Lund University in Sweden, Rick Kapur, has now discovered that an anti-inflammatory drug cures the disease in mice. For his achievement, he is awarded the International Society of Blood Transfusion’s prestigious award. TRALI is a r

Ten-day-old baby birds are able to maintain their regular body temperature despite nest box temperatures of 50C° or above. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden can now show that nestlings pay a high price for regulating their body temperature: they grow less. Therefore, the recommendation when putting up a nest box should be to avoid hot, south-facing locations and choosing a spot in the shade

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have made a key discovery about the internal magnetic compass of birds. Biologists have identified a single protein without which birds probably would not be able to orient themselves using the Earth’s magnetic field. The receptors that sense the Earth’s magnetic field are probably located in the birds’ eyes. Now, researchers at Lund University have studied

Many pollinating insects benefit from a small-scale agricultural landscape with pastures, meadows and other unploughed environments. In landscapes dominated by arable land, they lack both food and nesting places. Sown flower strips can increase the availability of food for pollinating insects, and are therefore assumed to benefit pollination. However, new research from Lund University in Sweden sh

Hematopoietic stem cells, that form mature blood cells, require a very precise amount of protein to function – and defective regulation of protein production is common in certain types of aggressive human blood cancers. Now, a research team at Lund University in Sweden has uncovered a completely new mechanism that controls how proteins are produced to direct stem cell function. “Our research is po

Professor and family physician Jan Sundquist at the Center for Primary Health Care Research at Lund University in Sweden has been awarded an ERC Advanced Grant from the European Research Council in the 2017 call for applications.

In a unique study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have mapped the origins of migratory birds. They used the results to investigate and discover major differences in the immune systems of sedentary and migratory birds. The researchers conclude that migratory species benefit from leaving tropical areas when it is time to raise their young – as moving away from diseases in the tropics enabl

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden believe they have found a method that in the future could help people suffering from epilepsy so severe that all current treatment is ineffective. “In mice studies, we succeeded in reducing seizure activity by intervening in an area of the brain that is not the focus of the epileptic seizures, but is directly connected to it through a network of neurons.

In 2017, the European Research Council (ERC) adopted a new approach to making research accessible to a broader audience – creating cartoons. Malin Parmar, a professor of cellular neuroscience at Lund University and recipient of an ERC grant, is one of the Swedish researchers whose research formed the basis for an ERCcOMICS cartoon. The last episode in a series of ten has now been published. A Cell

New research from Lund University in Sweden shows that inflammatory, unstable atherosclerotic plaque has a metabolism that differs from that of stable plaque – and is similar to that of cancer cells. Future research will therefore investigate whether cancer drugs could potentially be used to treat cardiovascular disease. Atherosclerotic plaque builds up gradually in the walls of the body’s arterie
