Rester av plast, som människor lämnat efter sig, går numera att hitta i princip överallt i naturen – i vattendrag, i djur, och till och med bland molnen. Micaela Mafla-Endara har i sin avhandling tittat på hur nanoplast som hamnar i jorden påverkar de mikroorganismer som lever där. Svaret är tydligt: det finns en effekt på organismerna och hur de beter sig. Man kan säga att Micaela Mafla-Endara oc

Men riskökningen är mer måttlig bland äldre än hos medelålders, visar ny forskning från Lunds universitet. Att både förstadium till diabetes och konstaterad diabetes ökar risken för hjärt-kärlsjukdomar är kä

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Currently, it can take weeks and even months to produce results on how the future climate could affect agriculture. Now, researchers at Lund University are looking to change this and have produced simplified models, so-called emulators, to make it simpler – and above all, faster – to link vegetation, finance and clima

The state is a necessity for implementing human rights, right? Starting her PhD thesis, Dr. Therese Boje Mortensen wanted to challenge the presumptions behind this philosophy, studying the case of NGOs in India. Five years later, we have the results. In December of 2023, Dr. Therese Boje Mortensen successfully defended her dissertation NGOs as Child Rights Implementers in India at Lund University.

Covid-19 turned parts of the ordinary research process upside down. Economist Erik Wengström is among those who have studied Swedes’ behaviour during the pandemic from the centre of events. But the current funding system risks putting a spanner in the works.

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har lyckats tillverka storskaliga och sfärformade LED-ytor vilket tidigare har varit en teknisk utmaning. Experimentet, som möjliggjordes av en enkel kemisk reaktion, kan bli avgörande för en betydligt billigare produktion av lysdioder. Perovskit är ett medelhårt mineral som upptäcktes i Uralbergen 1839 och tillhör kalciumtitanoxidfamiljen. Vad den tyske mineralogen

Med hjälp av röntgen- och neutronspridning har ett forskarlag i Lund lyckats kartlägga fibrillstrukturen hos proteinet beta-amyloid 42 som bidrar till Alzheimers sjukdom. Den nya kunskapen kan bli en viktig pusselbit i den framtida jakten på effektiva läkemedel. Vid Alzheimers sjukdom förtvinar nervcellerna i hjärnan vilket leder till minnesproblem och svårigheter att tolka intryck. Till en början
