The proposal from the European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change (ESABCC) would see agricultural subsidies phased out for the activities that cause the most damage to the climate, whilst increasing carbon sequestration and introducing specified pricing for emissions. Five researchers from Lund University in Sweden share their views on whether the EU’s agri-food system can cope with the t

Under sin mer än 50-åriga karriär har diabetesforskaren Åke Lernmark gjort flera betydande upptäckter som har ökat kunskapen om typ 1-diabetes. Hans forskning bidrar till att skapa förutsättningar för ett nationellt screeningprogram i Sverige. I Sverige insjuknar omkring 1000 barn och lika många vuxna i typ 1-diabetes varje år. Sjukdomen får stora konsekvenser för de familjer som drabbas. Barn med

3 October – the Tuesday of the so-called Nobel Week – will go down in history as the day when LTH and Lund University received their very first Nobel Prize. At the same time, to all of us, it was a working day among many. Communication Officer Evelina Lindén, who divides her working hours between Fysicum and LTH’s secretariat, writes about what it was like to suddenly have her workplace invaded by

In a new observational study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden looked at all children listed for heart transplants in the Nordic countries between 1986 and 2023. A total of 597 children were included in the study, 461 of whom received a transplant. The results show that survival rates have increased significantly over time despite the modest volumes in the region – a development that the r

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. New research highlights how coastal planning and environmental restoration overlook social needs, cultural claims and existing vulnerabilities. Using Louisiana’s coastal wetlands as a case, researcher David O’Byrne argues that it is high time to turn away from a narrowly economic approach to coastal restoration, and i

An international consensus report on diabetes identifies the potential for diabetes screening, better classification of type 2 diabetes, and biomarkers that can predict cardiovascular disease. The report also highlights that more evidence is needed before it is possible to provide individualised treatment to all patients. The report is based on a large collaboration between 28 universities worldwi

When the Covid-19 pandemic swept across the world in 2020, the mRNA vaccines came to the rescue of many people – but in the background there was another, lesser known, hero: the lipid nanoparticle. Without these tiny “fat droplets”, the vaccines could never have been delivered into the body’s cells. And the fact is that these small particles will probably have more assignments in the future.
