The war against terror is coming to an end. Has China become the victor? The Middle East seems to be moving towards more authoritarian regimes. A large influx of migrants and refugees and increasing population growth are likely to affect the region over the coming decades. And what about climate change? Is the Middle East becoming wetter, drier, or both? Watch five Middle East scholars trendspotti

Currently, a lot is known about which genes are responsible for our individual blood groups, however not much is understood about how and why the levels of the blood group molecules differ between one person and another. And this can be important for blood transfusion safety. Now a research group in Lund has developed a toolbox that finds the answer – and in doing so, has solved a 50-year-old myst

Different species of migrating bird have different genetically programmed procedures that signal when it is time to head off and when it is time to return. It may have to do with factors such as daylight, temperature, weather and the Earth’s magnetic field. These migration programmes have been studied before, but new technology and computational capacity make it possible to process large amounts o

Congratulations to Tristan Bakx, BECC-doctoral student, who has published his first paper from his PhD. The researchers studied temporal and spatial scale effects on carbon stocks and financial value, showing that early carbon storage led to higher costs than late carbon storage, which should be considered in potential climate policies. Increasing carbon stock in standing forests is one of the pro

To create a functional urban environment for people, the environment and biodiversity, cities need to make careful considerations. Urban densification can be positive, for example in terms of reducing car traffic and providing better services to more people. At the same time, it can be at the expense of green spaces and human health. Johanna Alkan Olsson is a senior lecturer at CEC and has been re
