Härom veckan fylldes Belfragesalen med sistaårsstudenter, naturvetare på Katedralskolan, som lyssnade på Medfaks unga forskare som berättade om sina forskningsprojekt. De inbjudna gymnasieklasserna kom från Katedralskolan i Lund och läser sista året på naturvetenskapliga programmet och har valt medicinsk orientering som inriktning. Besöket tajmades med tidpunkten då eleverna just läst neurovetensk

That is the result from a large long-term study from Lund University in Sweden. Two years after treatment were 70 per cent of the patients clearly improved and 45 per cent were remitted. Panic disorder is one of the most common causes

Karin Schillén defended her PhD in 1994 in Uppsala under Professor Wyn Brown, who was one of the pioneers in light scattering techniques and modeling of scattering data. During her postdoctoral period with Professor Per Claesson at KTH, she broadened her research to include colloidal interactions, and during her continued postdoctoral period with Professor Mitchell Winnik at the University of Toro
One result of climate change is that spring is arriving earlier. However, migratory birds are not keeping up with these developments and arrive too late for the peak in food availability when it is time for breeding. By getting the birds to fly a little further north, researchers in Lund, Sweden, and the Netherlands have observed that these birds can give their chicks a better start in life. Globa

For over 20 years, a research team at Lund University in Sweden has studied the common bluetail damselfly. Females occur in three different colour forms – one with a male-like appearance, something that protects them from mating harassment. In a new study, an international research team found that this genetic colour variation that is shared between several species arose through changes in a speci

The ecological consequences of animal agriculture present an acute challenge for how we legislate to protect cows, pigs, and other farmed animals. Research at the Sociology of Law Department suggests abandoning human-centred perspectives, thus calling for a new paradigm that recognizes the ethical significance of all animals as world-making beings. It has been estimated that about 72 billion land
In Sweden he fears a risk of care damage, which likely does not exist in countries like Romania. During three months in the autumn, SWEAH PhD student Glenn Möllergren, Lund University, will live in Romania and find out more about it. First one year in the 1990s and then at a number of longer stays for education and work. Soon a smaller moving load will go to Romania again. Möllergren has received

As odd as it sounds, many scientists have attempted to place extremely small diamonds inside living cells. Why? Because nanodiamonds are consistently bright and can give us unique knowledge about the inner life of cells over a long time.

In a new study, Lund University economic historian Erik Bengtsson debunks the myth that Sweden was destined to become a social democratic country.

Recently, a new instrument on the four-metre VISTA telescope at the European Southern Observatory in Chile captured its first starlight. This marks the start of a new era in astronomy, where researchers will map the sky in unprecedented detail. The instrument, called 4MOST (Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope), does not take ordinary images of the night sky. Instead, it collects spectra or colour
