Could singing spread Covid-19?
If silence is golden, speech is silver – and singing the worst. Singing doesn’t need to be silenced, however, but at the moment the wisest thing is to sing with social distancing in place. The advice comes from aerosol researchers Jakob Löndahl and Malin Alsved at Lund University. They have studied the amount of particles we actually emit when we sing – and by extension – if we contribute to the i

Lead halide perovskites – a horse of a different color
Tri-national team of researchers from NanoLund, the Russian Academy of Science, and the Technical University of Dresden in Germany has developed a new methodology for the study of lead halide perovskites. Metal halide perovskites have been under intense investigation over the last decade due to the remarkable rise in their performance in optoelectronic devices such as solar cells or light-emitting

Organic farms had doubled plant diversity – but only over time
It takes a long time, up to several decades, before the benefits of organic farming take full effect on land that was previously cultivated conventionally, a new study from Lund University suggests. After thirty years, the plant species richness around the cultivated crop had doubled on organic farms compared to conventional farms. It is well known that organic farming benefits biodiversity and ca

Faculty of Science invests in computational science – new doctoral programme meets growing demand for advanced analysis
In 2025, the Faculty of Science launched a new doctoral programme in computational science to meet the growing demand for advanced computational methods in research. This initiative aims to promote interdisciplinary collaboration and train doctoral students in handling and analysing large datasets across fields such as medicine, environmental science, and engineering. The doctoral programme was cr

Czech-Danish duo receives major award
This year’s Nordic Prize from the Fernström Foundation – one of the largest medical prizes in Scandinavia– is awarded to two cancer researchers, Jiri Bartek and Jiri Lukas, for their research on cellular responses to DNA damage. Genetically damaged cells that cannot repair their genomes without mistakes pose a major risk of cancer and other diseases. Every year, the Eric K. Fernström Foundation pr

Exploring Genomic Dark Matter: Christopher Douse Awarded $1.2M Grant by Chan Zuckerberg Initiative
Christopher Douse, a new group leader at the Faculty of Medicine at Lund University, has been awarded the Ben Barres Early Career Acceleration Award by The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. This award includes a $1.2 million grant to support his lab’s exploration of the repetitive portion of the human genome, so-called ‘genomic dark matter’, and its role in human brain development and degeneration.

Entire genome of common forest pest now revealed
Researchers have successfully mapped the entire genome of the Eurasian spruce bark beetle. The breakthrough paves the way for new research into bark beetles and better prospects for effective pest control of a species that can destroy more than 100 million cubic metres of spruce forest during a single year in Europe and Asia. Mapping the genome of the Eurasian spruce bark beetle enables a far deep

Departments choose sustainable food – meat to become special dietary reques
Vegetarian to become the standard, meat a special dietary request. That is the result of the Department of Biology and the Department of Psychology striking a blow for reduced meat consumption. The aim is to reduce the University's climate impact. Vegetarian food shall be the first option for catering and other activities where food is pre-ordered. This is what both department boards have decided
