Researcher Emma Johansson is leading a new research project about the social consequences of carbon farming in the Global South. “We are interested in analysing the effects of carbon farming programmes on smallholder farmers in different countries in the Global South. Their promise to generate carbon credits and sequester carbon while also transforming agricultural practices is very attractive, bu

Researchers in Lund have discovered an antitoxin mechanism that seems to be able to neutralise hundreds of different toxins and may protect bacteria against virus attacks. The mechanism has been named Panacea, after the Greek goddess of medicine whose name has become synonymous with universal cure. The understanding of bacterial toxin and antitoxin mechanisms will be crucial for the future success

In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the “recipe” for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University have now created a library of the 400 factors needed for reprogramming and have begun the work of finding the right combination – the recipe – for each type of immune cell. Our immune system consists of different typ

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The idea of publishing research findings in open access journals is in many ways an asset in the research community. Unfortunately, it has also entailed the emergence of many unprofessional agents on the market. Their only purpose is to trick researchers into giving them money. Not only does a successful researcher ne

Despite Greenland belonging to an ally, the NATO country Denmark, the U.S. president does not rule out military action. Ideally, he says he would like to buy Greenland – but is it even possible for one nation to buy another in that way? “Historically, it is entirely possible and has occurred on several occasions. The United States purchased the Louisiana Territory from France in 1803, which at the
