Climate change is damaging public health and is also leading to premature deaths. At the same time, the healthcare sector itself is responsible for significant emissions. Studies of intensive care and surgical care in Sweden show that over 60 per cent of the climate impact in intensive care is driven by the growing volume of single-use products, according to research by Linn Hemberg at Lund Univer

Kriget i Gaza har skapat konflikter på universitet i Sverige och i andra länder. Motsättningarna mellan demonstranter och universitetsledningar och mellan grupper av anställda lär ta tid att överbrygga. Vi har träffat både LU:s rektor och demonstranter från tältlägret i Lundagård. I LUM ger de sin syn på vägen framåt. Vi har också intervjuat Lundaforskare med vitt skilda specialiteter och frågat h

A new international commission will pave the way for a global boost in maternal and newborn health. The project is led by a researcher at Lund University in Sweden, whose motivation stems from a formative experience witnessing a woman bleed to death unnecessarily during childbirth. “The time has come to put maternal and newborn health back at the heart of the global health agenda,” says Mehreen Za

Does green growth exist? Can we achieve a sustainable society with a GDP that grows year after year? Not if you ask Timothée Parrique. He is the economist who defied all the good advice and chose to research degrowth. Now his thesis has been downloaded 27,000 times, and he is a sought-after lecturer worldwide. At the end of February this year, renowned economist Paul Krugman wrote a column in the

Kajsa Brolin forskar om hur våra gener och vår miljö påverkar risken att utveckla Parkinsons sjukdom. Den 27 mars lägger hon fram sin avhandling som till stor del baseras på MultiParks egen biobank som innehåller prover från över 1000 skånska parkinsonpatienter. Här berättar hon om en nyligen upptäckt genetisk riskfaktor som verkar finnas specifikt i Skåne. Och skyddar verkligen kaffe mot Parkinso

20 years of measurements are only the beginning. Long-term measurements over several decades are crucial to enable predictions of how airborne particles affect the future climate, according to Lund University researcher Erik Ahlberg. “Long-term measurements are important to prove that various climate initiatives actually work.

Lymphedema after head and neck cancer is considerably more common than previously assumed and can persist long after cancer treatment has finished. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered that patients with a low level of physical activity face a higher risk of developing lymphedema.

Genom att studera vilka växtarter som borde finnas i ett lokalt ekosystem men som saknas – så kallad mörk biodiversitet – kan forskare få en tydligare bild av människans påverkan på naturen. En ny global studie visar att mänsklig aktivitet på stor geografisk skala påverkar den lokala artdiversiteten långt mer än man tidigare trott. I regioner med låg mänsklig påverkan innehåller de lokala ekosyste
