Closing competency gaps for circularity: Exploring partner dynamics for circular-oriented innovation
What are the key competences of a partner for circular-oriented innovation? A qualitative and in-depth case study provides insight into collaborative relationships for circular-oriented innovation. The implementation of circular initiatives requires certain capabilities and knowledge that traditional business models often lack, requiring new perspectives and external collaborations. While it is un

Africa’s vulnerable ecosystem
Most African countries contribute only marginally to the increase of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, in the atmosphere. Nevertheless, Africa is the continent most vulnerable to the effects of climate change. The impact varies across the continent and also within individual countries. An improved set of data increases the possibilities for evaluating future risks, and how to best address

Increased carbon dioxide levels in air restrict plants ability to absorb nutrients
The rapidly rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere affect plants’ absorption of nitrogen, which is the nutrient that restricts crop growth in most terrestrial ecosystems. Researchers at the University of Gothenburg have now revealed that the concentration of nitrogen in plants’ tissue is lower in air with high levels of carbon dioxide, regardless of whether or not the plants’ growth is

Unexpected link between diabetes and the sleep hormone melatonin
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A common variant of the melatonin receptor gene increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. This discovery was made by two research groups at Lund University Diabetes Centre (LUDC), and reveals a completely new mechanism underlying diabetes. The finding, presented in the latest issue of the scientific journal Na

Unexpected discovery about essential enzyme
High-tech method for uniquely targeted gene therapy developed
Neuroscientists at Lund University in Sweden have developed a new technology that engineers the shell of a virus to deliver gene therapy to the exact cell type in the body that needs to be treated. The researchers believe that the new technology can be likened to dramatically accelerating evolution from millions of years to weeks. Several of the new revolutionary treatments that have been used cli

Incredible amounts of data in new medical images
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Nowadays, a photograph taken by a normal mobile phone camera is almost 2 MB in size. It is therefore possible to imagine the huge quantities of data produced by scanners that take thousands of three-dimensional images of a single body part or tissue sample. Freddy Ståhlberg shows how data from the forthcoming national

Hindrik Mulder is the incoming editor-in-chief of Diabetologia
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Research published in the research journal Diabetologia needs to meet a high standard of quality. Most of the manuscripts submitted are rejected. At the start of 2021, Hindrik Mulder, MD and professor at Lund University Diabetes Centre (LUDC), will take over as editor-in-chief of the journal. After just over 10 years

Awarded environmental pioneer has a message for academia
Association between coeliac disease risk and gluten intake confirmed
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. An extensive study has confirmed that the risk of developing coeliac disease is connected to the amount of gluten children consume. The new study is observational and therefore does not prove causation; however, it is the most comprehensive of its kind to date. The results are presented in the prestigious journal JAMA

Paul Bourgine awarded ERC Consolidator Grant to investigate how human bone marrow may influence immune cell functions and the success of cancer immunotherapies
Paul Bourgine, research group leader at Lund Stem Cell Center and the Wallenberg Center for Molecular Medicine at Lund University, has been awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant to investigate how the human bone marrow microenvironment can regulate the function of immune populations. The funding will support the development of advanced research models aimed at revealing previously unknown interactions
Bird feeding helps females more than males
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that female birds benefit more from extra food in the winter. If females receive additional food, they do not need to reduce their body temperature as much as they would have otherwise, and the chances of surviving cold nights increase. Birds possess an extreme ability

The brain forgets in order to conserve energy
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Our brains not only contain learning mechanisms but also forgetting mechanisms that erase “unnecessary” learning. A research group at Lund University in Sweden has now been able to describe one of these mechanisms at the cellular level. The group’s results, published in the international journal Proceedings of the Nat

Neurons can learn temporal patterns
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Individual neurons can learn not only single responses to a particular signal, but also a series of reactions at precisely timed intervals. This is what emerges from a study at Lund University in Sweden. “It is like striking a piano key with a finger not just once, but as a programmed series of several keystrokes”, sa
