A new multipurpose on-off switch for inhibiting bacterial growth
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

Opportunities to scale up nature-based solutions in the Nordics
Nature-based solutions offer excellent opportunities to address environmental and social challenges. They can help mitigate climate change and protect biodiversity. However, better governance and funding, complemented by clear political priorities, are needed to scale up such solutions in the Nordic region. This is the finding of a new research report from the Nordic Council of Ministers, in which

The Disciplinary Board – where the humor takes a break
The disciplinary board at Lund University exists to ensure that all students have a fair and safe study environment. The board handles matters such as cheating, interference and harassment and ensures that rules and guidelines are followed and that everyone can feel safe and respected at the university. Elisabet Londos is a member of the disciplinary board and tells us more about the board's missi

Five ways to be (even more) sustainable at work
Sustainability is a priority – not only for the Faculty of Science but for the entire university. Working sustainably is not only about reducing climate and environmental impact – it also contributes to a more stimulating, safe, and inclusive workplace. Lund University's new resource ‘Sustainable at work’ brings together concrete tips and tools for those who want to make more sustainable choices i

Big data in research – both reality and rhetoric
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Astronomic amounts of new digital information about the world, our genetic heritage and our habits are continuously being generated. This information is a goldmine for research – as long as the data can be accessed, stored and analysed. “We have a lot of expertise in the field. More and more areas of Lund University a

Inta Gribonika awarded SSMF starting grant for research on skin humoral immunity
Borders don’t just divide nations — they define our bodies too. At the skin and in the gut, our barrier organs form the frontline of defense against infection. Here, diverse communities of friendly microbes, the microbiota, help maintain health and keep these borders strong, backed up by an immune system ready to deploy antibodies against any intruder. Protecting these barrier organs is central to

How your lifestyle can affect your risk of dementia
Almost half of all dementia cases can be attributed to risk factors that we potentially can influence ourselves, such as smoking and high blood pressure. A new study from Lund University shows which risk factors are associated with two of our most common causes of dementia – Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. During our lifetime, the risk of developing dementia is influenced by aspects tha

Hello there Ian Manners! Let’s hear a little about the new course Political Cinéma…
Professor Ian Manners, who is also due to be inaugurated as a professor tomorrow, teaches alongside Joel Abdelmoez on the course Political Cinéma. – Why Cinéma and not Cinema? – The course is called political cinéma to remind us that ‘cinéma’ is both the production and projection of films. In 1895 the Lumière brothers first used the cinématographe motion picture system (a camera, projector, and f

"Circular economy is just another growth model"
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Public interest in degrowth is on the rise in these times of global warming awareness, but the idea is hardly new. We talked to professor Hervé Corvellec after the 6th International Degrowth Conference took place in Malmoe. "Degrowth is the idea of turning economic development from growth-based into its opposite.

How do dementia diseases affect our brains?
“We must understand the ageing process itself in order to help people with conditions such as Alzheimer’s and dementia, and to possibly enable us to prevent these diseases from arising”, says Henrik Ahlenius of the Stem Cell Centre at Lund University. His aim is to develop an experimental model for human nerve cell ageing that enables the researchers to understand why a disease is triggered. In th

Making an aircraft wing from a feather
Birds are masters of flight and can even outperform aircraft. Bar-tailed godwits, for example, can fly from Alaska to New Zealand – 11 600 km – in one eight-day, non-stop flight! To manage this, the birds must be able to fly very efficiently. How do they do it? What does a feather have that an aircraft wing does not? One of the greatest challenges in today’s society is to reduce the consumption of
