Lab experiments show that the chemical compound damsin found in the plant Ambrosia arborescens inhibits the growth and spread of cancer stem cells. The similar but synthetically produced ambrosin has the same positive effect, according to researchers at Lund University and University Major of San Andrés in La Paz, Bolivia. The plant Ambrosia arborescens grows at a high elevation in large parts of

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Even though the EU’s food safety authority, EFSA, has classified genetically modified (GM) crops as safe, several member states always vote against authorisation, which poses an obstacle for countries thinking of growing these crops. A group of researchers and experts want to resolve this impasse. Each country should

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Astronomers have managed to take unusually colourful images of a group of galaxies using a telescope in Hawaii. The photos reveal new facts about this spectacular galaxy cluster. Remnants of star matter attest to a phenomenon known as galactic cannibalism. At a distance of approximately 250 million light years from ou

Read an interview with Kimberly Nicholas, BECC researcher, dealing with food, ecosystems and land-use. Kimberly talks about Paris and COP21, taking personal responsability and social media. After five years in Lund, Kimberly Nicholas has grown roots here. She comes from a family of turkey ranchers and wine-growers in California, and food has been with her for her whole life. Her research at LUCSUS

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers have managed to show how the cells in a plant, a multicellular organism, determine their size and regulate their growth over time. The findings overturn previous theories in the field and are potentially significant for the future of agriculture and forestry - as it reveals more about one of the factors wh

Researchers at Lund University and Louisiana State University have developed a tool that makes it possible to control extreme UV light - light with much shorter wavelengths than visible light. The new method uses strong laser pulses to direc
