Under sin mer än 50-åriga karriär har diabetesforskaren Åke Lernmark gjort flera betydande upptäckter som har ökat kunskapen om typ 1-diabetes. Hans forskning bidrar till att skapa förutsättningar för ett nationellt screeningprogram i Sverige. I Sverige insjuknar omkring 1000 barn och lika många vuxna i typ 1-diabetes varje år. Sjukdomen får stora konsekvenser för de familjer som drabbas. Barn med

När covid-19-pandemin svepte över världen 2020 blev mRNA-vaccinerna räddningen för många – men i bakgrunden fanns en annan, mindre känd hjälte: lipidnanopartikeln. Utan dessa små ”fettdroppar” hade vaccinet aldrig kunnat levereras in i kroppens celler. Och faktum är att den lär få fler uppdrag framöver.

What are AI writing tools and how do they affect our assessments? Three main options for considering AI writing tools in assessment are: 1. to ban their use, 2. to assume that they may be used, and set tasks which incorporate them or 3. require them to be used – to fully incorporate the tools in the assessment.

How we feel about nature affects the gardening choices we make and how much those choices benefit pollinators. A new study from Lund University highlights this connection, particularly in the context of widespread urbanisation, which is reducing both green spaces and people’s contact with nature. The researchers also show that for pollinators in cities, gardens with plantings kept over many years

One of the world's greatest challenges is to feed the world's population in a sustainable way. Organic farming is one option, but the downside is that it produces lower yields than conventional farming. Studies led by Lund University now show that the yield difference between organic and conventional farming is smaller than previously thought, but the yields are still significantly smaller than fo
