A research team has created a picture of historical temperatures in the Arctic, spanning over a thousand years. A new technique and a recently published database of proxy data have been used in the research, and the results are an important contribution to understanding temperature changes now and in the future. The Arctic is the area in the world that is heating up the fastest, through so-called

Universal school lunch programs make students healthier, and increase their lifetime income by 3%, according to a unique study from Lund University in Sweden published in The Review of Economic Studies. Health disparities arise early in life and play a major role in economic outcomes among adults. Yet there are few studies on the long-term effects of school-based nutrition policies aimed at counte

With the aid of satellite images, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have uncovered unique data on the severe drought that hit Syria between 2007 and 2009. Previously, many politicians and researchers believed that it was decisive for the outbreak of war in 2011. However, the new results indicate that agricultural land had already recovered by 2010. When the war in Syria broke out in 2011, t

How can we see biological tissues beyond the traditional two-dimensional microscope image? In his PhD research, Nika Gvazava explored advanced imaging techniques that reveal tissues and organisms in greater spatial and molecular detail. On 17 September, Nika Gvazava, from the Wagner Lab, defended his PhD thesis “Spatiotemporal imaging of development, disease and regeneration using advanced light-b

This year’s Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine recognizes discoveries behind optogenetics. The technique has a long history in Lund neuroscience, including early Parkinson’s disease research involving MultiPark researchers, and is today available through MultiPark-supported research infrastructures. Since its development, optogenetics has become a fundamental tool in neuroscience. Now, Karl Dei

Using micro-engineered soil models, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have investigated the effect of tiny polystyrene particles on bacteria and fungi. While these nanoplastics reduced both bacterial and fungal growth, the fungus actually managed to “clean up” their surroundings, thereby easing the effect of the plastics. “Plastic waste is a huge global problem.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. For the first time, researchers have succeeded in creating an iron molecule that can function both as a photocatalyst to produce fuel and in solar cells to produce electricity. The results indicate that the iron molecule could replace the more expensive and rarer metals used today. Some photocatalysts and solar cells

A carnivorous fruit fly living in bubbling African streams may sound like a fever dream. However, with the help of DNA analysis of a pinned insect from a museum in Zurich, researchers have managed to draw an evolutionary map of a mysterious species that has not been seen since 1981. Researchers at Lund University have successfully mapped the genome of one of the world’s most unusual fruit flies -
