This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a water purification plant that provides clean water far beyond the reach of the electrical grid – thanks to solar cells. With the help of Nobel Peace Prize recipient Muhammad Yunus, these small and portable solar cell stations have now been placed across rural B

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By studying identical twins, researchers from Lund University in Sweden have identified mechanisms that could be behind the development of type 2 diabetes. This may explain cases where one identical twin develops type 2 diabetes. The study involved 14 pairs of identical twins in Sweden and Denmark. One twin had type 2

The climate issue is one of the biggest global societal challenges of our time. Research on where the climate is heading is an important part of that work, both to monitor the impact of emission reductions agreed between countries worldwide in Paris 2015, but also to be better prepared for the elements of climate change we will not be able to avoid. A climate model developed by researchers from Lu

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. During 7-8 of May, 80 researchers within MERGE and BECC met to learn about the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, and how their research can be linked, and contribute, to the implementation of the goals. We are just as far from reaching the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) as Burkina Faso. We just have different

Ouyang Yuan defends her Ph.D. thesis on 14 October 2022. As a medical student with a longstanding interest in blood malignancies, her research has focused on better understanding the development of a specific type of blood cancer, acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The hope is that these findings will help lead to a better understanding of AML and future treatments that can one day prevent, delay, or c

Länge sades det att typ 1-diabetiker är normalviktiga och att typ 2-diabetiker ofta är överviktiga. Det stämmer inte längre. Bland personer med typ 1-diabetes är övervikt och fetma allt vanligare och med samma hälsovådliga konsekvenser som vid typ 2-diabetes. En svårighet med att hålla vikten är att insulinbehandling i sig ökar risken för övervikt. Frågan togs upp i tidskriften The Lancet Diabetes

Ett internationellt forskarsamarbete lett från Lunds universitet visar hur magnesium tar sig in och ut genom cellmembranet. Magnesium är en livsviktig mineral som påverkar en rad biologiska processer i kroppen. Ämnet har bland annat betydelse för att cellernas energikraftverk, mitokondrierna, ska kunna producera och tillgodogöra sig kroppens energimolekyl, ATP.  När mitokondrierna inte fungerar ka

Nordic and Andean countries started their economic modernisation in the same way: with export of raw natural resources. Later on, Norway and Sweden became rich, while Bolivia, Chile and Peru followed a quite different path. What made them diverge from the common road? Different fiscal policies may be one of the reasons, new research from Lund University suggests. In the mid-19th century, Norway ex
