Enligt ny forskning riskerar nordliga torvmarker att spela en större roll i framtida klimatförändringar än vad man tidigare trott. Studien visar att stora områden med torvmarker kan börja släppa ut koldioxid redan vid mitten av 2100-talet. Hittills har torvmarker främst betraktats som en naturmiljö som kan dämpa klimatproblemen tack vare att torven lagrar enorma mängder koldioxid från atmosfären.

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. För några månader sedan visade LUDC-forskare att det finns en koppling mellan sömnhormonet melatonin och typ 2 diabetes. Det oväntade fyndet väcker många frågor vilka nu ska tacklas med stöd av ett europeiskt forskningsanslag och en speciell mus. - Vi vet nu att melatoninreceptorn har betydelse för diabetesrisken me

Den tejpning av rekryters fötter som försvaret rekommenderar inför långa marscher, riskerar att ge livslånga kontaktallergier. Forskare vid Lunds universitet, har undersökt soldater vid ett par regementen och av de rekryter som undersökts uppvisade drygt 75 procent kontakteksem av tejpen.

En av tio kvinnor får bröstcancer under sin levnad. De flesta överlever. Men den mentala återhämtningen varierar från person till person. En ny avhandling från institutionen i psykologi vid Lunds universitet har undersökt den personliga förmågan att hantera krissituationer. Tre omständigheter visade sig vara särskilt viktiga. Psykologisk resiliens handlar om vår förmåga att hantera svårigheter och

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By changing from action-based to result-based environmental payment, farmers are financially encouraged to implement conservation measures, such as buffer strips and organic farming, where they are most beneficial for the environment and not, as today, where they least disrupt the production. This according to William

A landmark study led from Lund, has shown that transplanting stem-cell derived dopamine progenitor cells into the brain is feasible. Eight patients were transplanted in the first clinical trial, and no serious side effects linked to the transplanted cells were seen during the first year of follow up. The results are published in Nature Medicine. In Parkinson’s disease, patients lose nerve cells in

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

For over 60 years, scientists have tried to determine whether plants are pollinated primarily during the day or at night — without reaching a clear conclusion. Now, a major research review from Lund University in Sweden has revealed that nighttime pollinators play just as significant a role as daytime species in 90 percent of the cases studied. Most of us know how important bees, birds, and butter
