China, UK, and US at centre of global ”land grabbing” trade
Nearly two out of three countries in the world now participate in a new kind of “virtual land trade”, where not only the goods produced but land ownership itself is traded internationally, according to a study from Lund University in Sweden. WATCH: Two thirds of world’s countries now part of global land trade This phenomenon of large-scale global land acquisitions is receiving increasing interna

"The Role of Citizen Science in Sustainable Agriculture" - new article by CMES Helen Avery
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The article has been published in Sustainability and is available online. Co-writers are Khaldoon A. Mourad and Hasan Hosseini, also from CMES. Farmers know much more than we think, and they are keen to improve their knowledge in order to improve their farms and increase their income. On the other hand, decision-maker

First year for Mid University and Judit in SWEAH
Last year SWEAH got a new partner university, Mid University in Sundsvall and Östersund. Judit Staller is a PhD student at the Department of Health Sciences (HOV) and is now celebrating her first year at the graduate school. How has the first time been?- I have had a fruitful year with SWEAH. It felt incredibly stimulating because already from the introduction day in January 2023 I have made meani

New method manages and stores data from millions of nerve cells – in real time
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Recent developments in neuroscience set high requirements for sophisticated data management, not least when implantable Brain Machine Interfaces are used to establish electronic communication between the brain’s nerve cells and computers. A new method developed by researchers at Lund University in Sweden makes it poss

Kick off for LUCSUS new mentorship programme
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Today, on August 21, LUCSUS kicked off its new mentorship programme for researchers with a first meeting between the programme leader Katarina Billing and the mentors. During the day the mentors got a crash course in mentoring and opportunity to network with some of the other mentors. They also met program staff and

Exercise led by a trainer instead of opioids?
It has been known for many years that movement and exercise in different forms are beneficial and can decrease pain for those with osteoarthritis. One might have to look around to find a form of exercise that fits since it is individually. Some prefer to train on their own, and others prefer training in a group. Some get offered to participate in classes led by a trainer/physiotherapist from their

The Scientific Advisory Board: "We hope to see more data about the subgroups"
We were interested to know what our Scientific Advisory Board think about the research currently underway at Lund University Diabetes Centre (LUDC), and invited Flemming Pociot and Søren Brunak from the board to the LUDC retreat in Helsingborg recently. They spent their time at the retreat listening to presentations and getting updates, and were able to provide valuable feedback. A presentation ab

Meet Carl-Johan Tiderius
Can you tell me a little about your research area?I research diseases and conditions of the hip joint that affect children but can also cause pain and osteoarthritis in adulthood. One example is hip dysplasia, where the acetabulum does not sufficiently cover the femoral head. Hip dysplasia occurs in 0.5-1% of newborns in Sweden and is almost always detected at the maternity ward. When diagnosed ea

A quartet of genes controls growth of blood stem cells
An important element in getting blood stem cells to multiply outside the body is to understand which of the approximately 20 000 genes in the human body control their growth. A research team at Lund University in Sweden has studied close to 15 000 of these genes alongside each other. The researchers have succeeded in identifying four key genes which, together, govern the growth and multiplication

60.000 views on The Conversation in two weeks – what’s the secret?
In just two weeks, Zhengyao Lu, Researcher in Physical Geography at Lund University and a member of MERGE and BECC, gained 60.000 reads of his article “Gigantic solar farms of the future might impact how much solar power can be generated on the other side of the world”. How could this be? We asked Zhengyao Lu himself to share his experience. Following the publication of a new piece of research wit

Muscle gene linked to type 2 diabetes
People with type 2 diabetes tend to have poorer muscle function than others. Now a research team at Lund University in Sweden has discovered that in type 2 diabetes, a specific gene is of great importance for the ability of muscle stem cells to create new mature muscle cells. The findings are published in Nature Communications. “In people with type 2 diabetes, the VPS39 gene is significantly less

Successful experiment paves the way for new element
Scientists have found an alternative way to produce atoms of the superheavy element livermorium. The new method opens up the possibility of creating another element that could be the heaviest in the world so far: number 120. The search for new elements comes from the dream of finding a variant that is sufficiently stable to be long-lived and not prone to immediate decay. There is a theory in nucle

Aggressive female fish put stop to mating - may lead to new species
When fish from different habitats meet, it’s not always love at first swim. New research from Lund University in Sweden in collaboration with North Carolina State University shows that aggressive females can actively repel males from the “wrong” environment. This behaviour may ultimately contribute to the emergence of new species. Understanding how species evolve is one of the most fundamental que

Environmental change in the Arctic
The region is warming faster than anywhere else on Earth and its polar bears and melting glaciers have become key symbols of climate change. But the Arctic, it seems, is not as well researched as we think it is. Since the Arctic covers some 14.5 million square kilometers, and conducting research in remote locations is very expensive, time consuming and often dangerous, the result is an extremely u
