Few research publications reach outside the realm of academia and even fewer make an impact on sustainability debates and societal issues. Kimberly Nicholas’ research on lifestyle choices to reduce your carbon footprint is unique in its reach and impact on society. Her research started with a question, asked by friends and students: what can I do for the climate that really makes a difference? Kim

En storskalig studie av avförings- och blodprover visar att det finns starka kopplingar mellan tarmbakterier och metaboliter i blodet. Forskarna bakom studien har bland annat hittat nya associationer mellan ett vanligt läkemedel för behandling av typ 2-diabetes och tarmfloran. Studien har letts av forskare vid Uppsala universitet och Lunds universitet. Tarmflorans roll för sjukdom och hälsa har bl

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har identifierat ett tidigare okänt förstadium till leukemi. Upptäckten kan ge svar på varför en särskilt aggressiv form av blodcancer uppstår redan i fosterlivet. När vi tänker på cancer handlar det ofta om en sjukdom som utvecklas under många år hos vuxna. Men för just en grupp av leukemi, akut lymfatisk leukemi (ALL), är det tvärtom – barn drabbas oftare än vuxna.

A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that migratory birds fly at peak efficiency at a medium pace – precisely the speed they use during their long journeys across the continents. Now, at the end of the summer, when the thrush nightingales leave Europe for southern Africa, they do not fly at full speed. Instead they maintain an even pace – and according to a new study from Lund Universi

A new study from Lund University shows that migratory birds fly most efficiently at moderate speeds – precisely the pace they use during their long journeys across continents. Now, at the end of summer, when thrush nightingales leave Sweden for Southern Africa, they don’t fly flat out. Instead, they cruise at a steady pace – and according to the study from Lund, that’s no coincidence.Migratory bir
