A research team at Lund University in Sweden has discovered a certain type of cells – foam cells – in patients with the aggressive brain tumour glioblastoma. It has been shown how these cells accelerate the cancer’s growth and that this can be successfully inhibited using a drug developed for arteriosclerosis. Glioblastoma affects around 500 Swedes every year and is the most common and most aggres

Moonlight determines when the red-necked nightjar feeds, migrates and raises its young. A groundbreaking long-term study from Lund University shows how the migratory bird’s entire annual cycle follows the moon’s rhythm. “… the lovely, melancholy moonlight, which makes the birds dream in the trees…”The French poet Paul Verlaine was seemingly wrong in his famous poem Clair de Lune.

How planets form is a question that has long vexed the world's astronomers. In recent years, the so-called pebble theory - where tiny gravel particles are sucked together - has gained ground. A new paper shows that ice plays a crucial role in allowing these celestial bodies to reach a certain size where they can continue to grow to planetary size. Just over 4.6 billion years ago, our planetary sys

The emergence of a mysterious area in the South Atlantic where the geomagnetic field strength is decreasing rapidly, has led to speculation that Earth is heading towards a magnetic polarity reversal. However, a new study that pieces together evidence stretching back 9,000 years, suggests that the current changes aren’t unique, and that a reversal may not be in the cards after all. The study is pub
