Different species of migrating bird have different genetically programmed procedures that signal when it is time to head off and when it is time to return. It may have to do with factors such as daylight, temperature, weather and the Earth’s magnetic field. These migration programmes have been studied before, but new technology and computational capacity make it possible to process large amounts o

SWEAH alumna Anna Nivestam, at the partner university Kristianstad University, is currently publishing a new scientific article on how well Nordic research focuses on the concept of health promotion and on the participation of older adults. Life expectancy is increasing in all the Nordic countries, and health-promoting research is crucial to meet both opportunities and challenges as society has an

Last year, the Centre for European Studies launched Viewpoint Europe, a new publication where researchers write policy-oriented reports. The first report was on the Swedish government's lack of consultation with interest organisations on EU-related matters. Recently, the second report was published, detailing how the proposal for an EU minimum wage might result in other effects than the ones curre

Today, the Faculty of Medicine's new goods reception in Lund was inaugurated. Handling shipments for recipients, suppliers, and Med-service personnel will now be more convenient. The new goods reception's very first customer showed up in the trembling seconds just before the inauguration speech on Monday, to pick up a parcel from the brand new parcel locker. How did it feel?  "Well… It's just like

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Ten-day-old baby birds are able to maintain their regular body temperature despite nest box temperatures of 50C° or above. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden can now show that nestlings pay a high price for regulating their body temperature: they grow less. Therefore, the recommendation when putting up a nest bo

Climate change creates more shrub vegetation in barren, arctic ecosystems. A study at Lund University in Sweden shows that organisms, such as bacteria and fungi, are triggered to break down particularly nutritious dead parts of shrubbery. Meanwhile, the total amount of decomposition is reducing. This could have an inhibiting effect on global warming. Johannes Rousk, BECC researcher, is one of the

When humans are ill, we tend to be less active. This also applies to wild animals, but so far, it has not been known how long the reduced activity lasts or which activities are affected the most. New research from Lund University in Sweden shows that birds' activity decreases for up to three weeks when they become ill - something that could mean the difference between life and death. The researche

Ökade temperaturer i samband med klimatförändringar får nu CASE:s forskare att identifiera utmaningar och utveckla åtgärder för att mildra och hantera extremhetta. Den 19 mars träffas de i en workshop som leds av Andrew Karvonen, professor vid Urban Design and Planning vid LTH. Sedan den massiva värmeböljan i Europa i augusti 2003 har forskare undersökt hur städer planerar för kylande åtgärder. De

I en studie som publicerats i Nature Medicine visar forskare att ett blodprov, som inom kort blir tillgängligt i USA, är lika träffsäkert – och i vissa fall överlägset – ryggvätskeprov. – Vi hoppas på att liknande test kommer att kunna användas i sjukvården i Sverige innan årets slut, säger Oskar Hansson, professor i neurologi vid Lunds universitet och en av forskarna bakom den internationella stu

Med hjälp av maskininlärning och en stor mängd data om gener och befintliga läkemedel, har lundaforskare identifierat en kombination av statiner och fentiaziner som särskilt lovande vid behandling av den aggressiva formen av neuroblastom. I experimentella studier – i möss med mänskliga tumörceller – visade resultaten på bromsad tumörtillväxt och längre överlevnad. Ovanlig men allvarlig form av bar
