A three-kilometre-long cylinder of ice sheds light on what the climate was like one hundred thousand years ago. The ice contains traces of periods of higher or lower temperatures on Earth, but also of whether there were violent volcanic eruptions and high solar activity. By understanding the climate of the past, researchers can develop better models to predict the climate of the future. There are

Small sensors do a big job. Increasing numbers of things can now be controlled and measured, detected and regulated via small sensors on machines, in nature or in and on our bodies. These sensors gather and transmit large amounts of information via wireless communication, while requiring very little electrical power. To reduce electricity consumption, researchers must work with each tiny electroni

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The most comprehensive star catalogue in the history of astronomy has been released, mapping out an impressive 1.7 billion stars. The catalogue is based on observations made by the European satellite Gaia, and contains the exact distances, luminosity, temperatures and colours of millions of stars in the Milky Way. Ast

During spring, a faculty group has worked on developing alternatives for a new organisation for the Faculty's research infrastructure. Kajsa M Paulsson has led the work and tells more. Why does the Faculty want to reorganise the research infrastructure? "A large number of the Faculty's research infrastructures have expressed that they want more dialogue with the Faculty management and increased op

Wildfires and deforestation are spreading in the wake of an expanding cattle industry in the Amazon rainforest. Now, Jesica López is being recognised for her research, which has brought together politicians, landowners, farmers and Indigenous communities in an effort to halt this development. "We must understand that the Amazon is an ecosystem every human being on the planet depends on," she says.

A new international study, led by Lund University and Nagoya University, Japan, shows that changes associated with Alzheimer’s disease may affect how rapidly ALS progresses. In time, the findings may contribute to more reliable individual prognoses and better-designed clinical trials.

How can a tiny genetic change alter the body´s sugar balance? At Lund University, researchers have used stem cells to create two versions of the same cell – one carrying the genetic variant and one without – to see how melatonin affects insulin-producing cells and contributes to development of type 2 diabetes.
