Battery technology takes off as markets adjust
The development of batteries for electric vehicles has progressed much faster than experts and policymakers had anticipated. New research shows that the market is well equipped to cope with both raw material shortages and price increases. This raises questions about which materials are actually critical to the energy transition, according to the researchers. A new study has analysed battery develo

This is how your blood vessels tolerate high blood pressure
A research group at Lund University has studied how a molecular sensor located in the blood vessel wall, controls how the vessel compensates for high blood pressure. As we age, the sensor deteriorates, which can worsen vascular damage caused by high blood pressure and consequently lead to secondary diseases affecting the heart, brain, or other organs. In mice, the researchers demonstrate that the

Temperature increase triggers viral infection
Researchers at Lund University, together with colleagues at the NIST Synchrotron Facility in the USA, have mapped on an atomic level what happens in a virus particle when the temperature is raised. "When the temperature rises, the virus's genetic material changes its form and density, becoming more fluid-like, which leads to its rapid injection into the cell," says Alex Evilevitch who led the stud

Sustainability moving forward with grants, innovations and a top ranking
I and many others are ambivalent when it comes to the ranking of the world’s universities. But Lund University has made the ranking lists and that does have an impact, at the very least for international marketing purposes. We must be active, rather than passive, in relation to the ranking bodies. Small margins can make a university climb or tumble down the lists, so there is a need to be modest w

Medfak´s Ukrainian summer school has started: Welcome to us!
Ten Ukrainian medical students, ten supervisors from the Faculty, for ten weeks. Initiator and professor, David Gisselsson Nord, is happy that the pilot project in medical research is up and going. Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine has led to serious disruptions to Ukraine's medical education system. Some universities have suffered extensive destruction and have had to evacuate their campus

Biohackers crack the human body’s “programming code”
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Biohackers experiment with their own bodies to upgrade themselves. They try to acquire a supermemory, increase their metabolic rate or affect some other biological mechanism. Now an interdisciplinary project is investigating how biohacking will come to influence our view of the human body and bioscience. : Interdiscip

Should employees be reachable by email during their leisure time?
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Is it OK for a manager to email employees in the evenings and on weekends? More employers should have explicit rules about emailing outside working hours, according to Mikael Ottosson, who is researching the work environment within a project entitled “Going home already? Fluid working hours means freedom to some peopl

The new Nordic green cuisine has become a mark of identity
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Economy packs of Danish meat and potato chips or venison and hand-picked lingonberries? The new Nordic green cuisine has become one of our most important marks of identity. Eating like a foodie – organic, ethical, modern and innovative food, is a way of acquiring status.

Inspiring edition of Development Research Day 2016: “End hunger and achieve food security by 2030”
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. On Thursday 10th of November 2016, we had another inspiring edition of the Development Research Day, a flagship annual event at Lund University bringing together all disciplines working on development issues since 2002. This year the Development Research Day was hosted by the Human Geography department and was dedicat
Clear goals but murky path to ecosystem sustainability: Key knowledge gaps identified
This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. International sustainability policies set out clear goals for protecting ecosystems and biodiversity, but how to actually achieve these goals remains elusive in practice, as biodiversity loss continues at an alarming rate. A new study published in the journal Nature Sustainability by an international team of 32 scient
New article in Science shows that savannahs slows climate change
Tropical rainforests have long been considered the Earth’s lungs, sequestering large amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and thereby slowing down the increasing greenhouse effect and associated human-made climate change. Scientists in a global research project now show that the vast extensions of semi-arid landscapes occupying the transition zone between rainforest and desert dominate th

Higher temperatures are needed to ensure carbon nanotubes decomposition
A new study shows that carbon nanotubes used as additives to polymers – to make materials lighter, stronger, and electrically conductive – do not necessarily degrade under the conditions that normally prevail in waste incineration plants. However, if the temperature is increased, or the residence time in the flue gas is extended, they will be destructed. “Contrary to what has previously been thoug
