Birds fly more efficiently by folding their wings during the upstroke, according to a recent study led by Lund University in Sweden. The results could mean that wing-folding is the next step in increasing the propulsive and aerodynamic efficiency of flapping drones. Even the precursors to birds – extinct bird-like dinosaurs – benefited from folding their wings during the upstroke, as they develope

Huntingtonforskaren Åsa Petersén är en av fyra forskare som utses till Wallenberg Clinical Scholar 2020. Hon får 15 miljoner kronor från Knut och Alice Wallenbergs stiftelse för att finna metoder som kan bromsa sjukdomsförloppet vid den neurodegenerativa sjukdomen Huntingtons. En ärftlig hjärnsjukdom som leder till för tidig död och för vilken det idag inte finns någon bromsande behandling. Huntin

En forskargrupp vid Lunds universitet har upptäckt en mekanism som hjälper akut myeloisk leukemi-celler att undgå kroppens immunförsvar. Genom att utveckla en antikropp som blockerar mekanismen kunde forskarna återställa immunförsvarets förmåga att döda cancercellerna i laboratorieförsök och i möss. Upptäckten publiceras i Nature Cancer. Studien i korthet:I studien visas hur en nyupptäckt mekanism

Belysning är viktigt för att skapa tillgänglighet och trygghet för oss människor under dygnets mörka timmar. Samtidigt kan artificiell belysning bland annat störa biologiska dygnsrytmer och försvåra för djur att navigera, vilket leder till negativa effekter på flera artgrupper med konsekvenser även för oss människor. I början av juni arrangerade LU Land frukostseminariet ”Belysning och ljusföroren
