Sixty-six million years ago, a gigantic celestial body crashed to Earth on the Yucatán peninsula, forming a crater 200 kilometres across. The impact plunged Earth into darkness and killed off the dinosaurs. Now, researchers from Lund University in Sweden, among others, are analysing drill cores from the crater to reco

I have participated in a very interesting conference arranged by the Association of Swedish Higher Education Institutions (SUHF) on the theme of administration quality – changes in ways of working. Several researchers from Swedish higher education institutions shared knowledge and ideas about how, based on experiences from the pandemic, we can create even better conditions for our work. The questi

When Quick Bites for Researchers launched in spring 2025, it began as an experiment — an attempt to open up a new and informal channel between researchers and the library’s expertise. One year on, librarians Fredrik Larsson and Anja Zimmerman can look back at an initiative that not only survived its first year, but is now ramping up.“We wanted to find a simple, low-threshold way to support researc

Researchers at Lund University are developing a new type of gene therapy that reprograms cancer cells within tumors into immune cells that can help the immune system fight cancer. Their approach, now published in the journal Science, could lead to more effective treatments for hard-to-treat cancers. Reprogramming Cancer Cells into Immune Cells Earlier research by the team showed that three special

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In a new article, researchers at Lund University have studied a new ice-skating technique that is more energy efficient than the traditional stride technique. By skating in arcs, ice hockey players can move just as quickly but with less energy loss. The authors say this could lead to better performance on the ice, as

Seven years ago divers discovered the oldest known stationary fish traps in northern Europe off the coast of southern Sweden. Since then, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have uncovered an exceptionally well-preserved Stone Age site. They now believe the location was a lagoon environment where Mesolithic humans lived during parts of the year. Other spectacular finds include a 9,000 year-ol

With the market for fossil fuels in decline, the oil industry is investing heavily in the chemical and plastics industry instead. The strategy seems to be working: the plastics industry is growing faster than the global economy. Multibillion-dollar subsidies from states and publicly funded banks, combined with weak legislation, are reasons behind the rapid growth, according to a new report from Lu

Scientists at Lund University have discovered for the first time that it is possible to detect insect DNA in the air. Using air from three sites in Sweden, insect DNA from 85 species could be identified. This offers scope for exploring a whole new way to monitor terrestrial biodiversity. These preliminary results was presented at Ecology Across Borders (13th-15th December) via an online poster by
