With 10,000 new cases a year, prostate cancer is the most common cancer type in Sweden. To create equal, accessible and high-quality prostate cancer care, Region Skåne has introduced Organised prostate cancer testing, OPT. "Anyone who wants to should be allowed to be tested for prostate cancer. Studies show that early detection lowers long-term mortality", says Anders Bjartell, one of Sweden’s lea

Jakob Skovgaard has co-authored the article “Reforming fossil fuel subsidies requires a new approach to setting international commitments” in the journal One Earth. The article argues that international efforts to phase out fossil fuel subsidies can be strengthened by distinguishing between different subsidies, taking into account their climate impacts and the feasibility of reform. As the climate

Production for the textile and fashion industry can, for many countries, represent a first step out of poverty. But what does this mean for those who work in the sector, and what happens when even poorer countries begin to compete by paying even lower wages for the seamstresses in the factories?

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

The dance that binary stars do around each other offers new clues to the chemical evolution of our Galaxy, the Milky Way – so says a current research study. For the first time, researchers have identified the link between the orbiting times of certain binary stars and the amount of iron in their interiors. Binary stars are systems containing two stars that orbit each other thanks to their mutual g

Fermented seaweed? Those who have tried it think it is much tastier than it sounds, and researchers at Lund University in Sweden are now hoping that acidified seaweed, rather than today’s dried version, will signify a major breakthrough for seaweed as a food source.

Since antiquity, humans have been fascinated by birds’ intercontinental migratory journeys. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that two areas in their genome decide whether a willow warbler flies across the Iberian Peninsula to western Africa, or across the Balkans to eastern and southern Africa. Researchers have long known that the behaviour that causes songbirds to migrate in a spe

A new study conducted by researchers in Europe shows that urban great tits have paler plumage than their countryside counterparts. Since the yellow pigment of the breast feathers of great tits comes from the food they eat, the paler yellow plumage of urban birds indicates that the urban environment affects the entire food chain. As urban areas expand, animals increasingly find themselves living in
