Identical twins share the same DNA, but one twin may suffer from type 2 diabetes while the other twin does not develop the disease. A study led by Lund University in Sweden has now discovered that there are differences in gene activity in twins where only one sibling had developed the disease. The researchers’ discovery could contribute to the development of new treatment methods. “Identical twins

Med hjälp av en superdatorsimulering har ett forskarlag lyckats följa en galax utveckling under 13,8 miljarder år. Studien visar hur unga och kaotiska galaxer, tack vare interstellära frontalkrockar, med tiden mognar till stabila spiralgalaxer, som exempelvis Vintergatan. Efter big bang för 13,8 miljarder år sedan var världsrymden ett veritabelt vilda västern. Galaxer kolliderade. Stjärnor bildade

Genom dna-analyser av gamla luftprover kan forskare i Lund visa att de nordliga mossornas sporspridning har flyttats fram flera veckor under de senaste 35 åren. Resultaten speglar hur snabbt naturens kalender ställs om i takt med ett varmare klimat. När Försvarsmakten på 1960-talet började samla in luftprover för att registrera radioaktivt nedfall från kärnvapentester, var det knappast någon som t

They become smaller as urbanisation increases. Troublesome, according to researcher Helena Hanson, because urban private gardens affect both cities’ biodiversity and human wellbeing by functioning as social green spaces. Now she strikes a blow for gardens in the urban planning. Green spaces, such as parks and allotment gardens, have a major impact on our physical and mental health and wellbeing –

A lot of research explains which diets may reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Much research remains to be done about how our genes respond to the foods we eat. A new study led by researchers at Lund University adds to evidence that variations in the AMY1 gene may affect the way the body breaks down starchy foods. Unhealthy food habits are risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes. An
