The sound of tawny owls makes young European robins eat less during their southward migration. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows how the threat from nocturnal predators affects the birds’ behaviour – and by extension their survival. When young robins embark on their first southward migration in the autumn, they make regular stops along the way to rest and replenish their energy rese

According to our Platform for Strategic Work, we are to endeavour to be an international university and strive to recruit the best staff from all over the world. However, recruiting staff from other countries is complicated. There are many rules and laws to consider if everything is to be done correctly, particularly in the area of migration. I am therefore proud that we offer much appreciated sup

Researchers at Lund University have recently sought to shed more light on how normal hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) produce a vast variety of blood cells. Their latest findings, now out in Cell Reports this week, confirm the existence of a transition state as HSCs develop into functional blood cells and provide insights into how certain properties of HSCs are lost as these cells decide their fate

Lund University and Tetra Pak Processing are joining forces to build one of the largest precision fermentation research facilities in the Nordics. Microorganisms will be selected, fine-tuned and trained to convert inedible waste into food and materials for a growing population. The term “precision fermentation” is being used increasingly by biotechnology and food experts. As resources dwindle and
