Forskare har lyckats utvinna feromoner – doftämnen som används av bland annat insekter vid parningskommunikation – ur genmodifierade oljeväxter. Metoden kan bli ett prisvärt och miljövänligt alternativ till kemiskt framställda bekämpningsmedel inom jordbruket. Världens växande befolkning är beroende av en hållbar livsmedelsproduktion. Men varje år förstör skadeinsekter stora delar av skördarna run

Vildbin som får i sig växtskyddsmedlet klotianidin när de äter nektar från behandlad raps blir slöare. Dessutom blir jordgubbar som pollinerats av sådana bin mindre. Det visar en ny studie från Lunds universitet. Bin och andra insekter är viktiga pollinerare av frukt- och bärblommor, inte minst av jordgubbar som blir större om de surrande smådjuren varit framme. Men hur jordgubbarnas tillväxt påve

Strutshonornas förmåga att hålla huvudet kallt gör att de kan producera fler ägg under perioder med varmare temperaturer. Detta visar ny forskning från Lunds universitet. Strutsen är världens största fågelart och lever ett utsatt liv några av världens mest extrema miljöer med höga temperaturer. I ett halvöken område i Västra Kapprovinsen i Sydafrika studerade ett internationellt forskarlag strutse

We usually associate ageing with a shrinking life span, sickness and death. The difficulty of imagining ourselves as old means that we go to great lengths to avoid planning for later life. Yet researchers argue that we have everything to gain by looking at life as a journey where preparations for the future provide opportunities for living a full life – until it really is over. We are all aware th

Early diagnosis is key to receiving proper care and advancing research on future therapies for neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s and dementia with Lewy bodies. New research from Skåne University Hospital and Lund University shows that combining a simple smell test with advanced spinal fluid analysis can predict these diseases with high accuracy, while sparing nearly half of patients f

We should not be afraid to joke about one another’s ethnic background. Used with sensitivity, such jokes can instead help to challenge the stereotypical image of immigrants, according to Lund University sociologist Henriette Frees Esholdt, who has studied humour at a multi-ethnic workplace in Denmark. Henriette Frees Esholdt’s study was carried out in a large organisation in the hospitality sector

Ludwig Schmiderer has studied how to overcome delivery challenges in stem cell biology with nanotechnology. In this interview, he tells us about his research and generative art. What have you been working with during your PhD studies? At the beginning of my PhD, I was trying to reengineer the CRISPR/Cas9 system to make it work in mitochondria instead of nucleus.

Fredrik Nilsson defended his Ph.D. thesis on May 10, 2023. For the last four years, he has explored the use of patient-specific cells in cell replacement therapy for Parkinson's disease to identify strategies to safeguard these transplanted cells from disease-related degeneration. Now, he tells us about his findings, their potential implications for future therapies, and valuable insights and advi
