Singing can be a real health boost. Song involves your emotions, thoughts and body; the feelgood hormone oxytocin surges and the stress hormone cortisol declines. Singing accompanies us from the cradle to the grave, and binds us together as human beings. But what do kids sing in school, how much, and in what way? David Johnson, researcher at the Malmö Academy of Music, investigates this in his the

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

For hundreds of years, people have made a living from livestock herding in rural Kenya. Today, their traditional way of life is increasingly burdened by the effects of climate change and population growth. In his doctoral thesis, Billy Jones examines why development aid projects in the region often fail – and how sustainable progress could instead be achieved with the help of local actors. Thirtee

How does migration and globalisation shape the lives of individuals in various countries and how does it affect the children of immigrants in terms of integration, identity, and cultural expressions?

Enligt sociologen Tullia Jack är festivalerna ett bra tillfälle att experimentera med alternativa livsstilar. Detta kan bana väg för beteendeförändringar också i det vanliga livet, som exempelvis hur ofta vi duschar och tvättar oss. Nyligen deltog hon och tre kollegor i sociologi

Typ 2-diabetes utvecklas i regel långsamt och eftersom symtomen kommer smygande märker många inte att de har insjuknat. Nu har forskare i Storbritannien screenat ett stort antal människor i åldrarna 40 till 70 år. Forskarlaget har funnit att en allmän screening av långtidsvärdet av blodsockret (HbA1c) skulle kunna påskynda en diabetesdiagnos med drygt två år, vilket i sin tur skulle leda till att

Hittills har virus enbart misstänkts att ha samband med utvecklingen av typ 1-diabetes. Men nu visar tyska forskare att virusinfektion mycket väl även kan handla om riskökning för typ 2-diabetes. De har funnit att två vanliga herpesvirus bidrar till försämrad sockeromsättning och i förlängningen en ökad risk att drabbas av typ 2-diabetes. Många studier har visat att virusinfektioner kan orsaka ell

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Ett varierat landskap med hagar, ängar och andra oplöjda miljöer gynnar pollinerande insekter. I slättlandskap som domineras av plöjd åkermark saknar de pollinerande insekterna både mat och boplatser. Sådda blomremsor kan förbättra de pollinerande insekternas tillgång till mat och antas därför gynna pollinering. Ny
