Donald Trump’s background in professional wrestling paved the way for his political career. By using the wrestling concept “kayfabe” – the art of making staged events seem real – Trump embodies the message that politics was always fake, while masquerading as authentic. This has tapped into an already existing disillusionment with the American political system. It can also explain why playing the v

Investigation of a metre-long front flipper, uniquely preserved with fossilized soft tissues, has revealed that the giant ichthyosaur Temnodontosaurus was equipped with flow control devices that likely served to suppress self-generated noise when foraging in dimly lit pelagic environments about 183 million years ago. Thus, this visually guided megapredator relied on underwater stealth—or ‘silent s

Despite the pandemic, the mood is good among those working with international students. Richard Stenelo and Louise Corrigan think it is fantastic that so many of them have managed to arrive in Lund. “They have defied obstacles such as closed airports and vacated embassies. The most creative students seem to have made it here – and these are exactly the type of students we want”, they observe. Ther

Ett forskarlag i Lund har tagit fram en kompakt spektrometer med hjälp av billiga komponenter. Instrumentet, som redan börjat användas i undervisningen, är tänkt att uppmuntra studenternas nyfikenhet och problemlösningsförmåga. Spektrometrar används för att dela upp och mäta fysiska fenomen i dess olika delar. De första instrumenten användes för att separera synligt ljus i dess olika färger med hj

One percent of the world’s population accounts for more than half of the carbon dioxide emissions from passenger air travel. Thus, there is good reason to view air travel in a new light. It is actually an elitist activity, rather than what the aviation industry would like us to believe – that everyone flies. This is claimed by Stefan Gössling at Lund University and Linnaeus University in a new art

Why do some pregnancies succeed while others do not? With support from a newly awarded ERC Starting Grant, Assistant Professor Camila Consiglio and her team at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center are embarking on a project to explore the role the immune system plays in fertility, and in determining reproductive success. Infertility is a deeply personal and global health issue, affecting one in

LUCSUS researchers spent the last four years collaborating with Indigenous communities in Colombia to document how traditional knowledge can support biocultural diversity and wildlife in the Amazon. The project culminated in a final workshop in February 2026. Global discussions on protecting the Amazon rainforest often focus on carbon storage and forest cover. In a recent study, Torsten Krause and

En svensk multicenterstudie ledd av forskare vid Lunds universitet visar ett samband mellan låg fiberkonsumtion och förekomst av instabila högriskplack i kranskärlen, sådana som kan utlösa propp och orsaka hjärtinfarkt. Studien kopplar också kostmönstret till plackens sammansättning, alltså hur potentiellt farliga de är. Forskarna har med hjälp av avancerad hjärtavbildning, datortomografi, undersö

A new research project led by LUCSUS will examine immobility as an adaptation strategy. Through a novel research approach, and field work in different areas affected by sea level rise and erosion, it will shed light on the communities who are unable – or unwilling – to move despite negative effects on their environment. Average sea levels have swelled about 23 cm since 1880, with about 7 cm in the
