How can a bee fly straight home in the middle of the night after a complicated route through thick vegetation in search of food? For the first time, researchers have been able to show what happens in the brain of the bee. Bees and many other animals use what is known as optical flow to determine how fast they are going and how far they have moved through their environment. When ignoring all other

Local inspiration behind increases in solar powerInstalling a solar power plant is increasingly popular among Swedish homeowners. Despite nationally applied policies and subsidies, however, PV systems are much more common on house roofs in some municipalities than in others.

Johannes Stripple was one of nearly 1,000 people who ran a relay race, organised by the Swedish theatre company Riksteatern, from the Arctic to Paris – for life and the climate.

Blodkärl som annars skulle slängas har i stället använts till forskning av hur celler i kärlväggen lagrar in fett. Ett nära samarbete mellan kärlfysiologer och thoraxkirurger i Lund gör att forskarna på ett mer naturtroget sätt kan se hur fettupptaget i cellerna kan minskas med farmakologisk behandling. Åderförfettning – ateroskleros – är det enskilda medicinska tillstånd som ligger bakom flest dö

En femtedel av Sveriges vuxna befolkning har tinnitus och de flesta har även en hörselnedsättning. Nu visar forskare vid Lunds universitet att en enkel undersökning för att ställa in hörapparaten rätt, kan göra att hörapparaternas lindrande effekt på tinnitus kan fördubblas. Tinnitus är ett mycket vanligt problem som innebär att man hör ljud i öronen utan att det orsakas av någon yttre ljudkälla.

Vårt DNA är mycket likt schimpansens, som evolutionärt är vår närmaste levande släkting.

Studien publiceras i den vetenskapliga tidskriften Cell Stem Cell. Schimpansen är vår närmaste le
