When we think of dinosaurs, we often imagine majestic giants that ruled the Earth millions of years ago. But even these ancient creatures were not immune to diseases familiar to humans today, such as osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is relatively rare in today’s wild mammals (less than 1%) but is not uncommon in domestic or working animals like dogs and horses, as well as in birds, with a prevalence

In this seminar, which is co-organised by the Centre for Theology and Religious Studies and the Centre for Advanced Middle Eastern Studies, we will look at some cases of fluid boundaries and intertwined identities, when religious belonging and ethnic identification freely mix, and evolve, and change. We will hear about two groups, in Israel and in Turkey, with intertwined identities. And we will t

Over the summer, three articles from Lund University garnered record numbers of readers. An article by Inês Bramão and Mikael Johansson at the Department of Psychology is the most-read article from Lund University in years. The article, "The people we like can influence the connections our memory makes," was republished in a Greek journal, and it is these republications that help articles reach a

What if ordinary skin cells could be effectively reprogrammed to become brain cells and help with diseases like Alzheimer's? And what if machine learning allowed surgeons to precisely remove tumour cells on the operating table? These are the areas of research that Emil Andersson has been exploring to get closer to a solution. He successfully defended his PhD in computational biology at CEC. His th

For over 20 years, a research team at Lund University in Sweden has studied the common bluetail damselfly. Females occur in three different colour forms – one with a male-like appearance, something that protects them from mating harassment. In a new study, an international research team found that this genetic colour variation that is shared between several species arose through changes in a speci

Science has the technology to measure the activity of every gene within a single individual cell, and just one experiment can generate thousands of cells worth of data. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now revolutionised the way this data is analysed – by using 3D video gaming technology. The study is published in the journal iScience. Advanced techniques in DNA and RNA sequencing hav

Our work on Global Dynamic Engagement this year has shown us that in many ways, the University already has an impressive track record of global engagement. At the same time, our international impact is wavering, especially in relation to the number of citations of our publications in top-ranked journals. This development, which we share with many other universities, is worrying as it can make the

The year 2023 was a fantastic year for research at Lund University. The year can be summarised as 1825. In this case, it does not refer to the year 1825 and that our research has stagnated at the level it was then. Here, 1825 refers to four numbers: 1: Number one stands for a Nobel Prize – What a fantastic recognition for the incredible research conducted by Anne L'Huillier.8: Number eight stands

Our purchases account for a large part of the University’s carbon footprint. Every year, the University makes purchases worth SEK 1.5 billion. In Sweden as a whole, purchases amount to SEK 900 billion – equivalent to one-sixth of GDP. This has a significant climate impact. Therefore, it is important that all purchases, from fruit baskets to sophisticated instruments, are made consciously and susta

Emissions from our air travel decreased in 2024, compared with the previous year. Air travel accounts for the main part of our emissions from business travel and therefore the total climate impact of our business travel has decreased, even though emissions from car travel have increased. Every year, in connection with its annual report, the University submits a report on our environmental manageme

New research from Lund University found several inaccuracies in historical CPIs in popular online databases. The findings can have major consequences for future research. Faults in the data might already have influenced decisions made by politicians regarding economic policy, according to Jonas Ljungberg, Professor emeritus of Economic History.
