By preventing sugar uptake, researchers succeeded in increasing the cancer cells’ sensitivity to chemotherapeutic treatment. The studies, led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden, were carried out on cancer cells in a lab environment. The results were recently published in the research journal Haematologica. Just like the body’s cells, cancer cells need energy like the sugar molecule, gluco

Through analysis of high-resolution data from a ten-metre telescope in Hawaii, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have succeeded in generating new knowledge about three stars at the very heart of the Milky Way. The stars proved to be unusually young with a puzzling chemical composition that surprised the researchers. The study, which has been published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, e

The EAT-Lancet diet is a framework designed to promote environmental sustainability while also preventing common diseases such as type 2 diabetes. How do we know if the diet actually works? An international research team studied seven dietary scores and found that two of them were particularly good at evaluating adherence to the diet. Reliable diet scores are important when developing sustainable

Site-selected crystal material synthesis at the atomic scale has been a long-standing challenge. NanoLundians Rainer Timm and Yi Liu use nanowire crystal phase heterostructures as templates for self-selective growth of one- and two-dimensional GaBi nanostructures, which allows a versatile design with atomic-scale precision. Scaling down material synthesis to crystalline structures only a few atoms

Generative AI (GenAI or GAI) tools may have a place in education, but they also present challenges. We are all learning about these issues together, and it is important for teachers to have open conversations with students about using GenAI in their studies. This article contains suggestions for starting and sustaining such discussions with your students. Don’t mention it? Ignoring GenAI and hopin

In 2019, the number of flights for business travel decreased by nearly 10 per cent at the University. At the same time, train travel increased by 20 per cent.   “There are many deliberate individual decisions behind this. We are on the right track!” says the head of sustainability Claes Nilén. When you look at the numbers for travel in Lund University’s environmental report, it is evident that few

Children in preschool and primary school will now be able to learn more about insects, birds, flowers and plants, how valuable they are and how we humans can protect nature. The collaborative project ‘Natural Nations’ is introducing biodiversity in the curriculum. In the past, knowledge of species and the natural world was part of general knowledge and was passed down through generations. Today, t
