En av universitetets största donatorer, Birgit Rausing, har fyllt hundra år. Hon uppvaktades av ledningen med blommor och choklad. När Birgit Rausing fyllde hundra år den 26 oktober i år, ville universitetet naturligtvis uppvakta. Efter ett direkt önskemål från födelsedagsbarnet blev det god choklad i present och därtill vackra blommor från universitetsledningen. Medicinska fakulteten hyllade henn

Worldwide, coastal river deltas are home to more than half a billion people, supporting fisheries, agriculture, cities, and fertile ecosystems. In a unique study covering 49 deltas globally, researchers from LUCSUS and Utrecht University have identified the most critical risks to deltas in the future. The research shows that deltas face multiple risks, and that population growth and poor environme

This year’s Association of American Geographers’ conference got me thinking about maps. I’ve been to a fair few geography conferences but, funny enough, have never really come across very many maps. Or, rather, have given them very little thought. This year, wherever I turned there they were. And they were truly, deeply, mind-bogglingly fascinating. I’d like to share with you some of the maps and

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har upptäckt att mängden av ett mikroRNA är förhöjt vid typ 2-diabetes och påverkar utsöndringen av insulin negativt. Deras försök på mänskliga insulinproducerade celler i bukspottskörteln visar även att det går att öka insulinutsöndringen genom att minska mängden av detta mikroRNA. Målsättningen är att forskningen ska leda till nya behandlingar för personer med sjuk

Ny forskning ger ökat stöd för att vissa virusinfektioner kan ha betydelse för utvecklingen av typ 1-diabetes. Ett internationellt forskarlag har sett att små barn med förhöjd genetisk risk för typ 1-diabetes hade ökad risk att utveckla diabetesrelaterade autoantikroppar i samband med covid-19-infektion. Svenska barn har bidragit till studien som publiceras i den vetenskapliga tidskriften JAMA. St

Three researchers within the Social Science Faculty at Lund University have compiled an anthology challenging the notion of the refugee crisis of 2015. The book also investigates how Germany, Sweden, and Denmark use bureaucracy to control, discipline, and shape asylum seekers’ lives. In 2015, the number of asylum seekers arriving in the EU doubled from the previous year, totalling over 1.3 million

Exercise, even in small doses, changes the expression of our innate DNA. New research from Lund University in Sweden has described for the first time what happens on an epigenetic level in fat cells when we undertake physical activity. “Our study shows the positive effects of exercise, because the epigenetic pattern of genes that affect fat storage in the body changes”, says Charlotte Ling, Associ

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have investigated the link between osteoarthritis and mortality in an epidemiological study. It was shown that the risk of dying from cardiovascular disease was higher for people with osteoarthritis than for the rest of the population. Using population registers, the researchers studied approximately 469 000 people living in Skåne, Sweden, who in 2003 were

When the city of Copenhagen decided to build a new underground station in the Assistens Cemetery where many famous Danes are buried, they had to remove part of the entire north-eastern corner of the cemetery and re-bury the people who had been laid to rest in this area. This presented a unique opportunity for archaeologists at the Museum of Copenhagen, under the leadership of Sian Anthony from Lun

White dwarfs were once normal stars similar to the Sun but then collapsed after exhausting all their fuel. These interstellar remnants have historically been difficult to study. However, a recent study from Lund University in Sweden reveals new information about the movement patterns of these puzzling stars. White dwarfs have a radius of about 1 percent of the Sun’s. They have about the same mass,

Heart failure is known to be more common in certain families but whether this familial transition is caused by genetic or lifestyle factors. By studying adoptees in relation to both their biological parents and adoptive parents, a new population study in Sweden has found that genetic heritage is the dominant factor when it comes to heart failure in these families. “The results of our study do not

A unique study from Lund University in Sweden has discovered for the first time that there is a genetic sexual conflict in the immune system in animals. In females, the variation in central genes of the immune system is too high, whereas in males, it is too low. The researchers argue that the conflict is linked to differences in the immune responses of females and males. The fact that the strength
