Since the invasion of Ukraine, Central Asian migrant workers in Russia have seen fewer job opportunities and lower salaries. Among those trying their luck elsewhere, Turkey has become a popular alternative, especially for women. Sociologists of law Rustamjon Urinboyev and Sherzod Eraliev recently published a book comparing the everyday lives of labour migrants in Russia and Turkey. Central Asia -

For the first time, a research team at Lund University in Sweden has successfully reprogrammed mouse and human skin cells into immune cells called dendritic cells. The process is quick and effective, representing a pioneering contribution for applying direct reprogramming for inducing immunity. Importantly, the finding opens up the possibility of developing novel dendritic cell-based immunotherapi

On 20 December, 2022 Kristijonas Zemaitis will defend his Ph.D. thesis. With the goal to improve the availability of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) for the treatment of patients with blood disorders, he has spent the past several years working to better understand HSCs and how they are regulated to one day propagate these stem cells in the lab for therapeutic purposes. In this interview, we

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered that bird blood produces more heat in winter, when it is colder, than in autumn. The secret lies in the energy factories of cells, the mitochondria. Mammals have no mitochondria in their red blood cells, but birds do, and according to the research team from Lund

The number of reports of cheating at LU has increased considerably and now a project is starting that aims to prevent the students from cheating by providing support to teaching staff. Elin Bommenel will lead the project, which is to run from 1 September 2022 to 31 December 2023. There has been a marked increase in the number of reports of cheating in recent years. In 2019, cheating at the Univers

Much of the world's infrastructure is made of concrete, which presents a challenge when it cracks and needs repair. Traditional repair methods involve cutting away a large amount of material. Now researchers at Lund University are investigating an innovative solution: using fungi to mend concrete.

Det är en fråga som forskare vid Lunds universitet sökt svaret på i samarbete med amerikanska kollegor. Nu pågår en liknande studie med äldre personer i Sverige.

Astronomer kan med hjälp av superdatorer simulera hur galaxer bildats ända sedan Big Bang för 13,8 miljarder år sedan fram till idag. Men det finns en rad felkällor. En internationell forskargrupp, ledd av Lunds universitet och Seoul National University, har i åtta år använt hundra miljoner datortimmar för att råda bot på dessa. Under det senaste årtiondet har det gjorts stora framsteg när det kom

Klimatforskare framhåller ofta att det ligger i allas intresse att koldioxidutsläppen minskar. Men hur bra är de själva på att minimera sina klimatavtryck? En ny studie från Lund visar att vissa bränner halva sin CO2-budget på en vecka. Men att det finns sätt att minska utsläppen. Forskare har granskat utsläppen från deltagare på en årlig internationell vattenkonferens mellan åren 2004 och 2023. K

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har tagit fram den hittills mest detaljerade kartan över kolutsläpp från skogsbränder i Sverige. Resultaten visar att de största utsläppen sker under markytan i torv och organiska jordar. Under den extremvarma sommaren 2018 rapporterades 324 skogsbränder i Sverige. Med hjälp av fältmätningar, modeller och data från Skogsstyrelsen, Naturvårdsverket och SMHI har forska

Cirkulär ekonomi har under senare år blivit en ledstjärna inom industri- och miljöpolitik. Men hur bra är det egentligen? Definitionen av en cirkulär ekonomi är oklar och saknar substans, menar en grupp forskare från Lunds universitet och KTH. Det riskerar bli en skenlösning om vi inte slutar tala om det som en universallösning på allehanda miljöproblem. Cirkulär ekonomi har blivit en känd och erk

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Risken för diabeteskomplikationer varierar kraftigt mellan olika individer. Några lever relativt friska med sjukdomen i flera decennier, andra drabbas betydligt snabbare och av allvarliga hälsoproblem.
