Naturbaserade lösningar ger stora möjligheter att ta itu med miljö- och samhällsutmaningar. De kan bidra till att mildra klimatförändringar och skydda biologisk mångfald. Men för att införa fler sådana lösningar i Norden krävs bättre styrning och finansiering, kompletterat med tydliga politiska prioriteringar. Det visar en ny forskningsrapport från Nordiska ministerrådet, där forskare från CEC har

Vid vårens ankomst tar humledrottningarna säsongens första vingslag och ger sig ut för att hitta nya boplatser. Men de flyger ut allt tidigare på året till följd av varmare klimat och ett förändrat jordbrukslandskap, visar ny forskning. – Risken är att vi förlorar ytterligare humlearter och får minskad pollinering av grödor och vilda växter, säger forskaren Maria Blasi Romero vid Centrum för miljö

När klimatomställningen accelererar, så riskerar frågor om ekosystemtjänster och biologisk mångfald att hamna i bakgrunden. Det är därför viktigt att hitta lösningar som ger synergier, betonar Henrik Smith, medlem i Klimatpolitiska rådet som på onsdagen lade fram en ny rapport till regeringen. Klimatpolitiska rådet har i uppgift att granska regeringens samlade politik med avseende på klimatmålen.

Världen förändras och vi har upplevt samhällsstörningar på grund av globala risker som pandemier och klimatförändringar. Miljöer eller institutioner som tagits för givna är plötsligt i fara, vilket tvingar oss att överväga nya risker som kräver en noggrann utveckling av begrepp och teorier samt nya metoder för bedömning.  Detta är temat för den kommande internationella konferensen SRA Europe 2023

A small proportion of women who receive anti-estrogen treatment after breast cancer surgery have worse outcomes. This is associated with mutations in the estrogen receptor gene, according to a study from Lund University now published in JNCI Cancer Spectrum. “If our results are confirmed in further studies, it would be relevant to screen for these resistance mutations already at diagnosis, and the

People with type 2 diabetes tend to have poorer muscle function than others. Now a research team at Lund University in Sweden has discovered that in type 2 diabetes, a specific gene is of great importance for the ability of muscle stem cells to create new mature muscle cells. The findings are published in Nature Communications. “In people with type 2 diabetes, the VPS39 gene is significantly less
