An evolutionary perspective should be taken into account to ensure long-term crop pollination. This is the conclusion of an article published by BECC and CEC-affiliated researchers at Lund University. The researchers build on recent findings that evolutionary processes, in response to landscape change, are happening faster than previously thought. The article presents a model that can help us unde

Narcissism, psychopathy and machiavellianism are personality traits that often lead to major social problems in the workplace. Magnus Lindén has researched “the dark triad” – dark personality traits that can nevertheless lead to success and management positions. Illustration: Catrin Jakobsson “People with dark traits often cause major relationship problems in the workplace. It’s arsehole-like beha

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By studying identical twins, researchers from Lund University in Sweden have identified mechanisms that could be behind the development of type 2 diabetes. This may explain cases where one identical twin develops type 2 diabetes. The study involved 14 pairs of identical twins in Sweden and Denmark. One twin had type 2

Researchers at Lund University have discovered increased levels of a microRNA in type 2 diabetes, which has a negative effect on insulin secretion. Their experiments on human insulin producing cells in the pancreas also demonstrate that it is possible to increase the insulin secretion by reducing the levels of this microRNA. An important goal of the research is to develop new treatments for people

If you use your tools correctly, they last longer and you will not have to throw them out and buy new ones. Many of us agree with this sustainable and profitable approach. The same applies to manufacturing companies that want to achieve sustainable production and increase their competitiveness. But it is not always easy to get it right – in particular for companies aiming to manufacture new produc

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden can now show that a new examination method identifies high-risk plaques in the blood vessels surrounding the heart, that cannot be seen solely with traditional angiograms. This type of plaque, rich in fat, could potentially cause recurring heart attacks in patients with heart d

A research team at Lund University in Sweden has discovered a mechanism that helps acute myeloid leukemia cells to evade the body’s immune system. By developing an antibody that blocks the mechanism, the researchers could restore the immune system’s ability to kill the cancer cells in laboratory trials and in mice. The discovery is published in Nature Cancer. In brief:Facts about the study: peer-r

Sverige och Danmark är bland de länder i världen med högst förekomst av typ 1-diabetes i relation till invånarantal. Här finns också en lång tradition av forskning om sjukdomen. DiaUnion är ett samarbete mellan forskare och life science-företag i Öresundsregionen och projektet finansieras av bland annat EU. I DiaUnion går länderna samman i kampen mot typ 1-diabetes och relaterade autoimmuna sjukdo

Under pandemins zoom-möten har vi sett många variationer i hur mötesdeltagarna riggar sin hemmastudio. Men hur gör politiska ledare och toppdiplomater för att visa sin status? Elsa Hedling, som forskar om diplomatins digitalisering, har gjort en studie över hur internationella makthavare arbetar med sin framtoning på skärmen. När världens ledare träffas finns i vanliga fall ett strängt protokoll d

Förutom minnessvårigheter och andra kognitiva symptom lider de flesta som drabbas av Alzheimers sjukdom också av psykiska besvär. Länge har det varit oklart om dessa uppstår på grund av vävnadsförändringarna i hjärnan, eller om de utgör psykologiska reaktioner till följd av de kognitiva symptomen. En studie vid Lunds universitet har gett nya insikter om de psykiska symptomens uppkomst vid Alzheime

A researcher from Lund University in Sweden has managed to install a huge curtain in a remote cloud forest in South America. The aim is to study how these valuable forests are affected if clouds are elevated due to global warming. The world’s cloud forests are facing the threat of rapid climate change, as global warmi

Trump’s intervention in Venezuela was physical, concrete, and armed. What is happening now is decisive for the country’s future, but it also affects the entire region, according to Andrés Palacio, researcher at LUSEM. Historically, the United States has on several occasions asserted Central America, the Caribbean, and South America as its sphere of interest. Since the end of the Second World War,
