Ice sheets, snow and the ocean as far as the eye can see. No shipping vessels or people in sight, and only polar bears for company. The icebreaker Oden sails between Svalbard and Greenland, and this spring, doctoral student Lovisa Nilsson joined the ship to study the transition from winter to summer in the Arctic, and how soot affects the melting of sea ice. For six weeks, the spaces onboard Oden

Through the years, most gender norms have been challenged or changed in modern society. Yet each Christmas, a strikingly similar image of Santa Claus appears in the media and in our homes. What is is about Santa Claus that makes him immune to the criticism that other male patriarchal figures have endured? ”A lot of Swedish parents these days are very gender aware and progressive. This hasn’t seeme

George Neville works as a post-doctoral researcher within the Misty project, with a special focus on migration and the SDGs. In this interview, he tells us about what sustainability challenge he finds most interesting, what drives him as a researcher, and about what he did before he came to LUCSUS. What do you do at LUCSUS?I have just begun my postdoctoral research here at LUCSUS, working within t
How did we end up here? What do we do to get out of it? In climate research, it is important to understand how the world works if we are to change our behaviour and prevent future catastrophes. Researchers use mathematical formulas to try and visualise reality, in order to find out what changes we need to make. “We build models in an attempt to represent nature’s behaviour using mathematical equat

A warmer global climate can cause mutations to have more severe consequences for the health of organisms through their detrimental effect on protein function. This may have major repercussions for an organisms’ ability to adapt to, and survive in, the altered habitats of the future. This is shown in a new research study now published in the scientific journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B. Na

In a newly published study in Nature Communications, Emma Hammarlund and her research team at Lund University detail how daily fluctuations in oxygen levels influenced the rise of animal life. Their findings offer new insights as to how dramatic daily shifts in oxygen availability and stress may have played a central role in the evolution of complex organisms on Earth. “Now, when we explore animal

Kognitiv beteendeterapi har visat sig vara användbara vid en rad kroniska sjukdomar men det har inte funnits tillräckligt vetenskapligt stöd för att det skulle vara en effektiv metod för vuxna personer med typ 1 diabetes och otillfredsställande blodsockerkontroll.
