EU project shows welfare policies are vital to climate mitigation
In order to achieve the 1.5-degree target set by the Paris Agreement, massive cuts in carbon emissions are needed. For the EU, this requires a reduction of household carbon footprints from 2015 of almost 70% by 2030 and over 90% by 2050. Too often, climate policies are not placed within a broader social context and policy makers neglect to see that welfare policies are vital to climate mitigation.

Deforestation in Amazon basin could disrupt the distant rainforest by remote climate connection
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The ongoing deforestation around the fringes of the Amazon may have serious consequences for the untouched deeper parts of the rainforest. A new research study shows that it is not only the climate that is adversely affected by deforestation. In fact, the very stability of the ecosystem in the entire Amazon region is

A new eye on the universe opens in Chile
A new instrument on the four-metre VISTA telescope at the European Southern Observatory in Chile has recently captured its first starlight. This marks the beginning of a new era in astronomy, as researchers prepare to map the sky in unprecedented detail. The instrument does not take ordinary images of the night sky. Instead, 4MOST – the Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope – collects spectra, that

The Scientific Advisory Board: “Important contributions within type 1 diabetes research”
Lund University Diabetes Centre’s Scientific Advisory Board give researchers valuable feedback on ongoing research. Frances Ashcroft and Flemming Pociot from the board were invited to the LUDC retreat in the city of Helsingborg recently and they were impressed by the range of the research being performed at the centre. Research within type 1 diabetes specifically caught their attention. Frances As

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. Repe
New article in The Conversation: How dramatic daily swings in oxygen shaped early animal life
In a newly published study in Nature Communications, Emma Hammarlund and her research team at Lund University detail how daily fluctuations in oxygen levels influenced the rise of animal life. Their findings offer new insights as to how dramatic daily shifts in oxygen availability and stress may have played a central role in the evolution of complex organisms on Earth. “Now, when we explore animal
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

Climathon in Lund 2018
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. “Solutions to limit the climate impact of plastics” was the topic of this years Climathon in Lund. The 24 hour hackathon gathered 54 participants and was thereby one of the larger among the 113 Climathons held simultaneous all around the world. Climathon in Lund was organised by a consortia of five very different orga
