Dates set for Conference on Loss and Damage “L&D will be explored through five interrelated lenses”

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In October, LUCSUS will host a conference on Loss and Damage (L&D) from climate change. Discussions to advance research on L&D are urgently needed, says LUCSUS Director Emily Boyd, since many challenges remain for the scientific and policy community on how L&D should be conceptualised, how best to measure, quantify an

Tape could simplify skin cancer diagnosis

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The bad news about malignant melanoma is that the disease is increasing more rapidly than most other types of cancer. The good news is that it is easy to cure, as long as it is detected in time. A research group in Lund has therefore started a project that it is hoped will make it easier to correctly diagnose suspicio

Antibody discovery paves way for new therapies against group A streptococcal infections

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered an antibody with the potential to protect against Strep A infection, as well as a rare form of antibody binding, that leads to an effective immune response against bacteria. The discovery could explain why so many Group A strep vaccines have failed. The results are published in EMBO Molecular medicine. Group A streptococci have several ways

Link between appendicitis and allergies discovered

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Children with allergies have a lower risk of developing complicated appendicitis, according to a new study from Lund University and Skåne University Hospital in Sweden. The findings, now published in JAMA Pediatrics, could pave the way for new diagnostic tools in the future. “In a study of all the children who underwe

MicroRNA kopplat till diabetes

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Lena Eliasson professor i experimentell diabetesforskning vid Lunds Universitet har arbetat med forskning om mikroRNA (miRNA) med koppling till diabetes i ett flertal år. År 2017 fick hon ett forskningsanslag på två miljoner för att forska vidare hur mikroRNA kan användas vid behandling och prediktion av diabetes. P

Debate on Bioenergy – What are the possibilities and trade-offs?

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Bioenergy is the largest form of renewable energy worldwide. It actually generates more energy than wind, solar and hydropower combined. In the coming decades a huge increase in demand of biomass for energy purposes is expected. Where will this biomass come from and what are the impacts of this increased usage? Is thi

Melting Arctic sea ice accelerates methane emissions

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Methane emissions from Arctic tundra increase when sea ice melts, according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden. This connection has been suspected before, but has lacked strong evidence until now. “Changes in the Arctic Ocean can affect ecosystems located far away on land, ” says Dr. Frans-Jan Parmentier, t

Astronomers to develop new spectrograph for giant telescope

In 2028, the first observations will be made at the world's largest optical telescope being built in Chile. It is now clear that the facility will be equipped with a powerful spectrograph that researchers in Lund will help to develop. The telescope is called the Extremely Large Telescope and is being built by the European Southern Observatory, ESO - an international organisation with 16 member cou

Migratory birds take breaks to boost their immune system

Exercising too much and not getting enough rest is bad for your health. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the same is true for migratory birds. They need to rest not only to renew their energy levels but also in order to boost their immune system. After a period of physical exertion, vertebrates, including humans, usually need a period of recovery. Apart from the obvious – lowe

New method measures the risk of type 2 diabetes in blood

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have found a new type of biomarker that can predict the risk of type 2 diabetes, by detecting epigenetic changes in specific genes through a simple blood test. The results are published today in Nature Communications. “This could motivate a person at risk to change their lifestyle”, says Karl Bacos, researcher in epigenetics at Lund University.Predicting th
