Chimpanzees and yawn contagion

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. New research from Lund University, Sweden, has shown for the first time that chimpanzees catch yawns from humans, and that the susceptibility to contagious yawning develops gradually with age – just like it does in humans. While juvenile chimpanzees (5-8 years of age) catch human yawns, infant chimpanzees seem immune

Additional antibodies may protect against Covid

When we talk about antibodies against COVID-19, we tend to mean the so-called neutralising antibodies, that offer protection by blocking the virus from invading our cells. Now, a new study from Lund University in Sweden has revealed that non-neutralising antibodies may also be important in providing protection against Covid. “Our results indicate that non-neutralising antibodies could also provide

The new craft trend – an alternative form of organising work?

Passion, creativity and community. That’s the essence of an ongoing craft trend, according to organisational researcher and homebrewer Stephan Schaefer. “Craft is a timeless form of work that has always been important for human development. But craft is not static. It adapts and develops to fit our modern times. This is an important message and something that companies can learn from,” he says. St

How local communities can transition to sustainable energy systems

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. What makes for a successful transition to a low-carbon energy system? Local involvement, perceived fairness and information sharing, according to new research from Lund University in Sweden. The researchers studied two cases, one in Samsø (Denmark) and one in Feldheim (Germany) of successful implementation of low-carb

Wild bees and honey bees compete for food

Increasing attention is being paid to the impact of honey bees on wild bees. In a new report from Lund University in Sweden, researchers observed that honey bees compete with wild bees for flower resources, and that more research and knowledge are needed to create the conditions for coexistence between bee-keeping and the conservation of wild bees in Sweden over the long term. In recent years, the

Butterfly wing clap explains mystery of flight

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The fluttery flight of butterflies has so far been somewhat of a mystery to researchers, given their unusually large and broad wings relative to their body size. Now researchers at Lund University in Sweden have studied the aerodynamics of butterflies in a wind tunnel. The results suggest that butterflies use a highly

Commonly used pesticides are still harming bees

A new study from Lund confirms that pesticides commonly used in farmland significantly harm bumblebees. Data from 106 sites across 8 European countries show that despite tightened pesticide regulations, more needs to be done. Despite claims of the world's most rigorous risk assessment process, the use of approved pesticides in European agricultural landscapes still negatively affects non-target or
