It takes a long time, up to several decades, before the benefits of organic farming take full effect on land that was previously cultivated conventionally, a new study from Lund University suggests. After thirty years, the plant species richness around the cultivated crop had doubled on organic farms compared to conventional farms. It is well known that organic farming benefits biodiversity and ca

Hur kan fåglar undvika att krocka när de flyger i täta lövverk och i andra trånga miljöer med många hinder? Och vad innebär det för fåglarna att flyga i sådana komplexa miljöer? De frågorna funderade Per Henningsson vid Lunds universitet på innan han gjorde slag i saken och tog hjälp av familjens egen tama undulat för att ta reda på svaren. Nu publiceras studien i Royal Society Open Science. Pande

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. ”Typ 2 diabetes drabbar inte bara far- och morföräldrarna längre. Det har också blivit barnens sjukdom.” Uttalandet är Francine Kaufmans, president för American Diabetes Association. I Sverige är än så länge typ 2 diabetes ovanligt bland barn men i många andra länder är det annorlunda. I exempelvis USA har fler än 2

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. För några månader sedan visade LUDC-forskare att det finns en koppling mellan sömnhormonet melatonin och typ 2 diabetes. Det oväntade fyndet väcker många frågor vilka nu ska tacklas med stöd av ett europeiskt forskningsanslag och en speciell mus. - Vi vet nu att melatoninreceptorn har betydelse för diabetesrisken me

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Eftersom de båda vanligaste diabetestyperna, typ 1 och typ 2, blir vanligare ökar också antalet individer som har båda sjukdomarna samtidigt. Mycket kort kan dubbel diabetes definieras som när en typ 1:a utvecklar insulinresistens, ofta på grund av övervikt. Så sammanfattas tillståndet bakom begreppet dubbel diabete

Researchers at Lund University have discovered how a hidden piece of DNA, known as a transposable element, disrupts normal gene function in a disease called X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP). Published in Nature Structural and Molecular Biology, their findings uncover the epigenetic processes that lead to changes in gene expression linked to XDP, offering new insights into how this rare genetic

The Research and Innovation Bill of December 2024 promised substantial new funding through a number of targeted calls for applications. At the same time, it was also decided that new core funding for research would be allocated to universities based on indicators, external grants received and the number of highly cited publications per institution. We are now beginning to see some of the results a

In the future, our clothes will contain a tag that we can scan to access information. This will allow us to see how the garments were produced, where we can have them repaired, and how they can be recycled. Perhaps we will even be able to see who has previously worn the garment or be given the opportunity to rent it out. This spring, an innovation project was launched in which students at Campus H

The increasing amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are causing our climate to warm at an alarming rate. The consequent changes are unprecedented, and difficult to predict due to the complexity of the Earth system.  While we know that half of the carbon emissions released to the atmosphere by fossil fuel usage are re-captured by the ocean and land ecosystems, we still lack knowledge when i
