Be careful where you throw the banana peel! We are now gradually introducing separate food waste bins in the Faculty's buildings in Lund. Cardboard, metal, plastic and glass have been sorted for a long time. Since May, separate bins for food waste have also been provided in the staff kitchens at Gamla Kirurgen. Work will continue over the autumn to gradually introduce food waste management in all

Seeing a lot of talk about the importance of gut health? These are the latest findings, including those on food and supplements Weighing in at nearly two kilos, our gut bacteria seem to play an even bigger role than was previously thought. These bacteria can influence our mood and act as a communication centre. Gut microbiota researchers Åsa Håkansson and Frida Fåk Hållenius at Lund University in

The increasing demand of minerals, oil, and agricultural goods have severe negative social and environmental impacts. The extraction of resources leads to land dispossession of small-scale farmers and indigenous communities. It also generates social and political conflicts at the local level. For decades large scale agri-food production and mineral extraction have caused severe social and environm

From the Vice-Chancellor’s blog: For several years, Lund University and many other stakeholders within the sector and beyond have been calling on the Government to alter and simplify immigration legislation and its regulations for researchers and doctoral students. Sweden and its universities are competing in a highly competitive international study and labour market, and there have been far too m

With 10,000 new cases a year, prostate cancer is the most common cancer type in Sweden. To create equal, accessible and high-quality prostate cancer care, Region Skåne has introduced Organised prostate cancer testing, OPT. "Anyone who wants to should be allowed to be tested for prostate cancer. Studies show that early detection lowers long-term mortality", says Anders Bjartell, one of Sweden’s lea

As you know, the WCMM Research School is one of the most important pieces of regenerative medicine training that we provide here as a centre. This year, the school is celebrating its five-year anniversary and due to that, we will pay some extra attention to the activities going on during the year. The 2023/24 WCMM Research School, which is actually the 6th class starting, had its kick off on Octob

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Arctic climate change research relies on field measurements and samples that are too scarce, and patchy at best, according to a comprehensive review study from Lund University in Sweden. The researchers looked at thousands of scientific studies, and found that around 30% of cited studies were clustered around only two

Scientists have found an alternative way to produce atoms of the superheavy element livermorium. The new method opens up the possibility of creating another element that could be the heaviest in the world so far: number 120. The search for new elements comes from the dream of finding a variant that is sufficiently stable to be long-lived and not prone to immediate decay. There is a theory in nucle

Over five years, the EU invests SEK 163 million in the POLARIN research project. The aim is to promote interdisciplinary research in both polar regions. Physical geographer Dr Margareta Johansson is one of the researchers who will work in the project. Why is this polar research project needed?- The ongoing climate change is noted most clearly at our northernmost and southernmost latitudes. We ther

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden and other institutions have worked out how the pigment of the skin manages to protect the body from the sun’s dangerous UV rays. The skin pigment converts the UV radiation into heat through a rapid chemical reaction that shoots protons from the molecules of the pigment. In a new study, the team from Lund University, working with colleagues in France and Ita

At the moment, feverish activity is underway to compile the graduate school's eleven-year activities. Before the summer, Lund University's vice-chancellor decided that an external evaluation of SWEAH should be carried out in the spring of 2025. – It is very important to have an external review, because Lund University and the other 12 universities that finance SWEAH need information before decisio
