How do you measure biodiversity impacts from products and raw materials extracted in very different places around the world? Researcher Carla Coelho from the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences (MGeo), and colleagues, developed a new way to estimate the impact of mines and quarries - and how much they actually perforate their surroundings habitats. Perforation - human activity that crea

Compared with other migratory birds, the common swift follows a very unusual pattern when it migrates from the breeding areas in Europe to its wintering locations south of the Sahara. This is what researchers have observed in a major eleven-year international study of the birds. “Our study is very significant for understanding how organisms, in this case the common swift, can migrate from one part

For many cancer patients, successful treatment depends on whether the disease is detected early or responds to existing therapies. With new grants from the Swedish Cancer Society (Cancerfonden), three postdoctoral researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center will investigate new drivers of cancer development and how the immune system can be more effectively mobilised against tumors.
