Many pollinating insects benefit from a small-scale agricultural landscape with pastures, meadows and other unploughed environments. In landscapes dominated by arable land, they lack both food and nesting places. Sown flower strips can increase the availability of food for pollinating insects, and are therefore assume

Compared with other migratory birds, the common swift follows a very unusual pattern when it migrates from the breeding areas in Europe to its wintering locations south of the Sahara. This is what researchers have observed in a major eleven-year international study of the birds. “Our study is very significant for understanding how organisms, in this case the common swift, can migrate from one part

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A unique study from Lund University in Sweden has discovered for the first time that there is a genetic sexual conflict in the immune system in animals. In females, the variation in central genes of the immune system is too high, whereas in males, it is too low. The researchers argue that the conflict is linked to dif

The final report of how to achieve a cost reduction of SEK 40 million in the animal house organisation by 2027 including an action plan to reach this goal has now been presented. "The main message is that it is now time to act, we urgently need to do something", investigator Bo Ahrén said. According to the report, the challenge for the Faculty is a large over capacity of animal houses and a declin

BRCA1 and BRCA2 are well-known breast cancer genes associated with a significantly increased risk of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. However, there are an additional eleven genes associated with elevated risk for these types of cancer. A multi-year Swedish study now reveals that the proportion of women with genetically confirmed hereditary breast cancer doubled by including all genes in the

For a long time, there has been a lack of concentrated efforts among researchers focusing on taxation, but that is about to change. On June 5th, plans for a new Taxation Centre will be presented. "The idea of an interdisciplinary taxation centre and the need for it have existed for many years, and several of us researchers were given the opportunity to concretize our thoughts—especially regarding

For six months, artist Jennifer Rainsford will be exploring MAX IV – one of the world’s largest research laboratories for synchrotron light. Inside the ring-shaped MAX IV building on the outskirts of Lund, extremely intense X-ray light known as synchrotron light is produced. The light, which is not visible to the naked eye, is used by researchers from around the globe to study materials, molecules

AI, artificial intelligence, is trendy. But where does the boundary go between humankind and machine and what should we use AI for? “It’s time to ask ourselves what humankind possesses that machines do not. How can they complement each other, rather than compete?” asks philosopher Jonna Bornemark. Will your future colleagues have human intelligence – or perhaps artificial? It may sound like a stra

Export control are regulations used to govern the export of military and dual-use goods—items with both civilian and military applications. While these rules are often associated with industry and defence, it’s increasingly clear that they also affect the research world—especially in fields involving advanced technologies and international collaboration.
