Paying for a coffee or lunch by simply scanning your palm still sounds like science fiction to most of us. However, an engineering student at Lund University in Sweden has made it happen - making his the first known company in the world to install the vein scanning technique in stores and coffee shops. WATCH VIDEOFredrik Leifland got the idea for his start-up two years ago when he was standing in

Ett mejl till diabetesportalen.se år 2013 bekräftade Marias misstankar. Men först två år senare vågade hon berätta, och fick vården att reagera. Efter 27 år, 40 000 sprutor och minst lika många blodsockertest fick hon svart på vitt. Hon har inte längre typ 1-diabetes - hon har MODY2. Här är hennes historia. Fakta om MODY-diabetes MODY är inte en utan flera sjukdomar som skiljer sig åt från varandr

“A good way to see the daily life of science.” That is one of the conclusions from the summer scholarship holders from high schools in Skåne – a programme offering teenagers a way to dive into how it is to work with research. “This is a good way to see the daily life of science – how it is to work in a lab, as a fact, not just only seeing a show that is the result of something that has had been pr

For the first time, researchers are able to prove that there is an optimal speed for certain insects when they fly. At this speed, they are the most efficient and consume the least amount of energy. Corresponding phenomena have previously been demonstrated in birds, but never among insects. Previous studies of bumblebees have shown that they consume as much energy in forward flight as when they ho

Marine coastal ecosystems are severely threatened by the negative effects of climate change. At the same time, they are very important for climate change mitigation since they can store large amounts of carbon, and help sustain both life under water, and people’s livelihoods. LUCSUS is part of the four-year EU funded project Marine Coastal Ecosystem Biodiversity and Services in a Changing world.

EAT-Lancet-kosten är en modell för hur det globala livsmedelssystemet ska förhålla sig till planetens begränsningar samtidigt som folksjukdomar som typ 2-diabetes kan förebyggas. Men hur ska vi veta om dieten verkligen fungerar? Genom att studera sju kostindex har ett internationellt forskarlag funnit att två av dem är särskilt bra på att utvärdera följsamhet till kosten. Välfungerande kostindex b

A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the presence or absence of moonlight has a considerable bearing on when migratory birds take flight in the autumn. Together with colleagues at the Department of Biology at Lund University, Gabriel Norevik studied European nightjars (Caprimulgus europaeus) and how the lunar cycle and moonlight affect the departure time when the birds start their

How do you get a robot to behave in an ethical and moral way? Christian Balkenius is giving this a lot of thought, as it is the topic of his research project. However, he is also thinking about ethics among robot researchers.  “It’s often said that we have advanced further than we actually have done. The aim of the research is not fulfilled if we are not honest.”  Robots pique the imagination and

Christmas music is more than background noise to the hustle and bustle. From Mariah Carey’s Christmas cracker ‘All I Want For Christmas’ to Wham’s lost love in ‘Last Christmas’, each song tells its own story of why it belongs to the festive season. “The power of Christmas music lies in its ability to put us in touch with our emotions, from celebration to reflection.
