Olof the bird – a stuffed bird of prey with a stern expression – currently stands in the heart of The Science Student Union (LUNA), keeping watch over students’ discussions and union activities. But few are eager to get too close.

In the early spring, we came out of the pandemic (well, not completely, but there was at least a loosening of restrictions that were paralysing society) to be met by a new uncertainty, which since then has unsettled us and caused anxiety – Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Just as when the pandemic struck, Lund University showed

De goda hälsoeffekterna orsakas inte av en förminskad magsäck, utan av att operationerna leder till ökade gallsyranivåer i blodcirkulationen. Det visar försök på möss.

Småfåglar som blåmes och talgoxe undviker att häcka, alltså bygga bon och lägga ägg, i stadsmiljöer där det finns många främmande träd. Fågelungar väger också mindre desto fler icke-inhemska träd som finns i närområdet. Det visar en ny långtidsstudie från Lund. Naturen i staden bidrar till flera viktiga ekosystemtjänster.
