When humans are ill, we tend to be less active. This also applies to wild animals, but so far, it has not been known how long the reduced activity lasts or which activities are affected the most. New research from Lund University in Sweden shows that birds' activity decreases for up to three weeks when they become ill - something that could mean the difference between life and death. The researche

Most of us know that every department and unit at LUSEM has a health and safety representative. But what do they actually do, and when should you contact them? The short answer is: whenever you have concerns about your work environment – or simply need someone to talk to. Health and safety representatives are elected to represent employees and help ensure a safe, healthy and sustainable work envir

How can life-saving HIV treatments remain reliable when global aid is uncertain? What happens when animals are reduced to “carbon emissions” in sustainability debates? And how can urban forests be made safe at night without flooding them with artificial light, disturbing local wildlife? These are just some of the questions raised in Through the Kaleidoscope of Sustainability, an innovative new ant

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Copying the behaviour of others makes us effective learners and allow skills, knowledge and inventions to be passed on from one generation to the next. Imitation is therefore viewed as the key cognitive ability that enabled human culture to grow and create such things as language, technology, art and science. Decades

Our DNA is very similar to that of the chimpanzee, which in evolutionary terms is our closest living relative. Stem cell researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now found a previously overlooked part of our DNA, so-called non-coded DNA, that appears to contribute to a difference which, despite all our similarities, may explain why our brains work differently. The study is published in the jo

Few bachelor theses make it to publication. But a student currently in the Master's Programme in Sociology of Law recently managed the unusual feat when an international journal published a reworked version of her bachelor's project. Occasionally, a master's student with an aptitude for academic work will see an abbreviated version of their thesis published in a scientific journal. But the thresho

Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain’s support cells into parvalbumin-positive cells. These cells act as the brain’s rapid-braking system and are significantly involved in schizophrenia, epilepsy and other neurological conditions. Parvalbumin cells play a central role in keeping brain activity in equilibrium. The
