In the wake of climate change and an increasingly warmer and drier climate, wildfires are becoming more common. In Ukraine, the war further increases the risk. Already in March this year, fires broke out around Chernobyl. CMES researcher Lina Eklund fears that a dry summer could lead to further fires with catastrophic humanitarian and environmental consequences. Physical geographer Lina Eklund, wh

Researchers studied if auricular acupressure could work as pain relief in osteoarthritis patients at 65 years old or older. In the study, researchers also investigated the participants' sleep quality. All the participants were 65 years old or more and lived in nursing homes in Korea.  There is a link between osteoarthritis pain and poor sleep. According to the study, sleep quality in people withou

As students at Lund University, they studied the effects of climate change. As alumni, they are now negotiating the future of climate policy on behalf of the EU and the Swedish government. Lund University alumni headed to the COP29 negotiations in Azerbaijan with differing titles, goals and aims. After the negotiations, Christofer Ahlgren, Kajsa Nåtby and Yuichi Tsuchibuchi met for a reflective se

Men with severely reduced fertility are at greater risk of developing other health conditions later in life. A research team from Lund University in Sweden has now shown that these men are also more likely to develop colorectal cancer and thyroid cancer. The link between male infertility and an increased risk of disease is a relatively new area of research in reproductive health. Previous studies

These are busy times for atomic physicist Anne L’Huillier. Earlier this year, she received the prestigious Wolf Prize – perhaps not as widely known among the general public, but within the field of physics it is considered second only to the Nobel Prize. Anne L’Huillier was honoured for her contribution to ultrafast laser science and attosecond physics. “I haven’t really taken it all in yet. I hav

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The giant planet Jupiter was formed four times further from the sun than its current orbit, and migrated inwards in the solar system over a period of 700 000 years. Researchers found proof of this incredible journey thanks to a group of asteroids close to Jupiter. It is known that gas giants around other stars are oft

On 14 October 2022, Jessica Giacomoni will defend her Ph.D. thesis. With the ultimate goal to develop a possible, future alternative to cell transplantation for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders, her research efforts have focused on the direct conversion of human glial cells into therapeutic neurons directly within the brain. Here, she tells us about future possibilities with this emerg

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that plastic particles in water may end up inside fish brains. The plastic can cause brain damage, which is the likely cause of behavioural disorders observed in the fish. Calculations have shown that 10 per cent of all plastic produced around the world ultimately ends

Every year a small songbird, no heavier than a letter, crosses the Sahara Desert, the Mediterranean and the Arabian Desert on its migration. New research from Lund University in Sweden now reveals how the tiny bird manages this arduous journey: by flying night after night - and doing nothing during the day.

Solitary bees that ingested the pesticide clothianidin when foraging from rapeseed flowers became slower. In addition, the strawberries pollinated by these bees were smaller. This is shown by a new study from Lund University in Sweden. Strawberries are known to become bigger if bees have visited their flowers, but how strawberry growth is affected if the bees have been exposed to neonicotinoid ins

Long life is common among bird parents that get help with childcare. This finding comes from researchers at the universities of Lund and Oxford who reviewed data from more than 9,000 studies. Being a parent can be tough. In general, animals that care for many offspring die young, at least in species where parents are not helped by others. However, in some species things are different and parents r
