Actic expeditions - very expensive as well as time consuming and sometimes dangerous. Researchers Hakim Abdi and Daniel Metcalfe about unevenly distributed research. The Arctic is a remote and hard to reach area, which affects where research expeditions go and where climate scientists set up their field experiments. "The result is an extremely uneven concentration of research effort", states Hakim

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have found a new type of biomarker that can predict the risk of type 2 diabetes, by detecting epigenetic changes in specific genes through a simple blood test. The results are published today in Nature Communications. “This could motivate a person at risk to change their lifestyle”, says Karl Bacos, researcher in epigenetics at Lund University.Predicting th

Exercise is an important part of the treatment for those who have osteoarthritis. But even before one is affected by osteoarthritis, in this case knee osteoarthritis, different types of exercise can be more or less advantageous, depending on how much muscle mass is around the knee joint. Osteoarthritis is a joint disease characterized by pain and limited mobility in the joint. The disease can lead

They are called foraminifera and have lived in the world’s oceans for 545 million years. A research team has established in a new study that some species of this protist will probably cope swimmingly even in a climate-impacted future. This is due to their ability to respire nitrate. One consequence of climate change is higher water temperatures and reduced oxygen levels in the world’s oceans. This

In recent years, researchers have tried to capture the electrical current that bacteria generate through their own metabolism. So far, however, the transfer of the current from the bacteria to a receiving electrode has not been efficient at all. Now, researchers from institutions including Lund University have achieved a slightly more efficient transfer of electrical current. One of society’s grea
