After several years of reduced air travel due to the Covid pandemic, business trips involving flights have now risen to about the same level as before the pandemic. In other words, the goal of a 50 per cent reduction by the end of 2023 is remote, and new activities are needed to reduce the climate impact of air travel, which is one of the largest single emission sources linked to Lund University s

Huntington’s disease is hereditary, genetic and usually begins between the ages of 30 and 50. In Sweden, around 1,000 people have the diagnosis and several thousand live with the risk of getting the disease. Even more people have a connection to the disease as its symptoms also affect those close to the patient to a high degree. The disease leads to premature death and there are no treatments that

Vad är det som gör att vissa får typ 1-diabetes medan andra inte får sjukdomen? Forskare runtom i världen söker gemensamt efter ett svar på den svårlösta frågan. Diabetesforskare vid Lunds universitet bidrog nyligen med data till en studie som visar att sjukdomen utvecklar sig på tre olika sätt hos barn. Den ökade kunskapen gör det möjligt att genomföra nya typer studier som går ut på att förebygg

Honey bees have long been the model species for studying insect vision. However, new research from Lund University shows that several smaller bee species might actually have sharper eyesight. The honey bee has held a special place in vision research. It is one of the best-studied insects, and much of what scientists know about how bees perceive the world is based on studies of honey bees.The honey

This year's recipient of the Leif C. Groop Award for Outstanding Diabetes Research maps out mechanisms in the adipose tissue, which has increased the understanding of why some people with obesity develop type 2 diabetes.

Research is like solving a puzzle, some might say. One of the biggest of these is the body’s proteins – with over 90,000 pieces to keep track of. LUM meets three professors of protein to understand what makes the subject so fascinating and how they are working to understand when proteins go wrong in the body. If a research field were to be evaluated based on the number of Nobel Prizes it has been

I en ny registerstudie från Lunds universitet har forskarna studerat 4 207 barn till 2 380 fäder behandlade för testikelcancer. Resultaten i studien, som publiceras i PLOS Medicine, visar att själva cancerbehandlingen inte medför en ökad risk att få barn med missbildningar. Det är välkänt att behandling med medicins

An international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has managed to study the flight behaviour of the mysterious black swift. They found, among other things, that the black swift rises to extreme heights during a full moon, seemingly catching insects in the moonlight. And, during a lunar eclipse, the birds simultaneously lost altitude. The results are published in Current Biology. The b
