A new study may have uncovered why wall lizards have become the most successful reptile in the Mediterranean region. The results reveal how drastic changes in sea levels and climate 6 million years ago affected species formation in the area. The researchers believe they can now explain why the lizards became so diverse and widespread, something that has puzzled biologists since the 19th century. T

Att äta ost och grädde med hög fetthalt kan ha ett samband med en lägre risk för att utveckla demens. Det visar en ny stor studie vid Lunds universitet. Forskarna analyserade kostvanor hos drygt 27 000 personer och kopplade dessa till förekomsten av demens under en uppföljningstid på upp till 25 år. Debatten om fettsnåla dieter har länge format våra hälsoråd och påverkat hur vi ser på mat och häls

Researchers from Lund University, building on previous studies, have been working to understand why stem cells are transforming into cancer. Previously they revealed that small RNA molecules, long considered “junk” or degradation byproducts of RNA-sequencing, are emerging as key regulators of important cellular processes, like protein synthesis. Their latest discovery is published in Nature Cell B
