Organic farms potential for higher yields

One of the world's greatest challenges is to feed the world's population in a sustainable way. Organic farming is one option, but the downside is that it produces lower yields than conventional farming. Studies led by Lund University now show that the yield difference between organic and conventional farming is smaller than previously thought, but the yields are still significantly smaller than fo

AI is better than humans at analysing long-term ECG recordings

In patients with symptoms such as irregular heartbeats, dizziness, or fainting, or in individuals that physicians suspect may have atrial fibrillation, many days of ECGs may be required for diagnosis – “long-term ECG recordings”. These recordings must then undergo a time-consuming and human resource-intensive review to identify heart rhythm abnormalities. In a large international study, researcher

The climate researchers' wish list for 2021

2020 will be remembered as the year when the coronavirus paralysed the world. At the same time, the negative effect of climate change became increasingly apparent, and the pleas to listen to the scientist and the calls for action became even more urgent. What changes for the climate do researchers want to see in 2021? Researchers in climate and sustainability at Lund University list their hopes an

AI forces teachers to change the way courses are examined

Academic misconduct has increased with about 200% during the past covid years. As a precaution Lund University has started a project to prevent deception and misleading in examination, whether it’s unauthorized cooperation, plagiarism, or non-allowed aids. In every study environment there is a unique culture, with boundaries to what is considered acceptable and unacceptable by the students themsel

Keeping it in the family: Sisters form interdisciplinary research duo

Political scientist Hanna and psychologist Emma have more in common than their surname, Bäck. They are sisters but also make up an interdisciplinary research team. By combining their subjects, they are attempting to gain a complete picture of what motivates people to take part in political protests and why some of them resort to political violence. The research indicates that people who have previ

New research maps how and where people resist climate adaptation 

Why do some people oppose interventions meant to protect them from climate hazards, and what forms of resistance are available to those most vulnerable and exposed? These questions are explored in a new literature study from LUCSUS that maps where people resist climate adaptation; how, and in what contexts. It shows that resistance to adaptation occurs overtly and covertly, in both low-income and

Scientists critical that the UN's sustainable development goals do not make us resilient to withstand a changing climate

A new study from LUCSUS shows that the UN's sustainable development goals as a whole do not contribute to making us more resilient to cope with disruptive changes, such as climate change. The researchers behind the study believe that the next global agenda should put the relationship between ecosystems and humans in focus and start from flexible goals that promote transformative leadership and are

LUCSUS is part of a EU-project to support and restore marine coastal ecosystems

Marine coastal ecosystems are severely threatened by the negative effects of climate change. At the same time, they are very important for climate change mitigation since they can store large amounts of carbon, and help sustain both life under water, and people’s livelihoods. LUCSUS is part of the four-year EU funded project Marine Coastal Ecosystem Biodiversity and Services in a Changing world.

Med proteiner som nycklar till SARS-CoV-2 – så har vi lärt oss mer om viruset

Under den pågående CoViD-19 pandemin har förståelsen för virusets proteiner varit en central del i forskningen om SARS-CoV-2, eftersom det är genom proteinkontakter som viruset invaderar människans celler. På flera universitet i Sverige finns faciliteter som producerar proteiner för olika forskningsprojekt och som ingår i ett nätverk kallat Protein Produktion Sverige (PPS). PPS har genom sitt nati

Better conditions on the horizon for scholarship holders

Doctoral students living on relatively low external scholarships should get terms of employment that are more equal to those on doctoral studentships. This is the hope of the University’s Education Board, which has approved the faculties topping up the income of doctoral students on scholarships. However, the Faculty of Law and the University’s employment lawyers have registered reservations again
