Nocturnal migratory birds follow rhythm of the moon

Moonlight determines when the red-necked nightjar feeds, migrates and raises its young. A groundbreaking long-term study from Lund University shows how the migratory bird’s entire annual cycle follows the moon’s rhythm. “… the lovely, melancholy moonlight, which makes the birds dream in the trees…”The French poet Paul Verlaine was seemingly wrong in his famous poem Clair de Lune. Moonlight does no

Fungi crucial to the recovery of tropical islands

Underground fungi play a central role in the fragile ecosystems of atoll islands. The unique symbiotic relationship between these fungi and rainforest trees is vital for the restoration of nature and ultimately for the survival of coral reefs. New research shows how fungi help nutrients to move between the forest and the sea. Palmyra Atoll is a remote and uninhabited cluster of small islands halfw

Climate change threatens public health – and the healthcare sector contributes to the emissions

Climate change is damaging public health and is also leading to premature deaths. At the same time, the healthcare sector itself is responsible for significant emissions. Studies of intensive care and surgical care in Sweden show that over 60 per cent of the climate impact in intensive care is driven by the growing volume of single-use products, according to research by Linn Hemberg at Lund Univer

Study offers a more nuanced view of ADHD – points towards more personalised care and precision medicine

ADHD is usually associated with being careless, impulsive and having difficulty concentrating. New research focused on ADHD in adults indicates a greater number of cognitive and motor symptoms, and that the effects of medication vary depending on the severity of symptoms. The results could pave the way for more personalised care and better day-to-day support. ADHD is a neuropsychiatric deficit wit

How a strange fruit fly became a bloodthirsty underwater hunter

A carnivorous fruit fly living in bubbling African streams may sound like a fever dream. However, with the help of DNA analysis of a pinned insect from a museum in Zurich, researchers have managed to draw an evolutionary map of a mysterious species that has not been seen since 1981. Researchers at Lund University have successfully mapped the genome of one of the world’s most unusual fruit flies -

Birds can suffer serious harm from heatwaves

Extreme weather poses a big threat to birds. Yet there is a lack of both knowledge and methods for measuring its negative effects. In a new study, researchers from Lund University in Sweden have identified knowledge gaps and propose practical tools for analysing the risks to birds. Extreme weather has become increasingly common worldwide, often in the form of combinations of heat and drought. Thes

Patients with congenital heart defects are more likely to suffer a heart attack at an earlier age

Patients born with heart defects experience their first acute heart attack at a significantly earlier age than others. This is shown by a new national study from Lund University in Sweden. However, despite this earlier onset of illness, there is no difference in survival rates or the risk of further heart attacks between those with congenital heart defects and others. The study includes 214 patien

Debate: Does anyone care about Europe anymore?

As more and more countries move away from democracy and only seven per cent of the world’s population lives in liberal democracies, Europe’s self-image is being put to the test. At the university’s debate forum, ‘Debatt i Lund’, journalists and researchers came together to discuss whether the EU’s values and soft power still matter - or whether the world has already moved on. The liberal democracy
