Kalhyggen anses ofta vara negativa för den biologiska mångfalden, varför hyggesfritt skogsbruk diskuteras som ett mer gynnsamt alternativ. Men kan det vara så att kalhyggen – med rätt förvaltning i ett landskapsperspektiv – skulle kunna gynna vissa arter? På senare tid har det blivit allt vanligare att hitta fåglar och dagfjärilar på kalhyggen, arter som normalt trivs på exempelvis slåttermarker o

The chances of being cured of breast cancer have increased in recent decades, however if the tumour has metastasised, the disease remains essentially incurable. One reason for this could be that the metastases are detected late, after they have grown enough to cause symptoms or be seen on a radiological scan. If they could be found sooner, it might be possible to treat the new tumours. Research fi

The results from the autumn travel habits survey show that a majority of the University’s staff (approx. 80%) get to and from work by walking, cycling or using public transport. This is a higher percentage than for other large organisations in Lund. However, there is potential for even more people to commute sustainably by investments in public transport and measures to promote cycling on campus.
