One of the world's greatest challenges is to feed the world's population in a sustainable way. Organic farming is one option, but the downside is that it produces lower yields than conventional farming. Studies led by Lund University now show that the yield difference between organic and conventional farming is smaller than previously thought, but the yields are still significantly smaller than fo

The robot at the hospital somewhere in Sweden is connected and ready to operate. The surgeon, who is in another country, controls the advanced surgery. This is the future: wireless surgery via the internet. But will we be able to trust the speed and security of this wireless connection through the cloud?It should work, with the help of the faster 5G technology and by bringing the cloud closer to t

Research is like solving a puzzle, some might say. One of the biggest of these is the body’s proteins – with over 90,000 pieces to keep track of. LUM meets three professors of protein to understand what makes the subject so fascinating and how they are working to understand when proteins go wrong in the body. If a research field were to be evaluated based on the number of Nobel Prizes it has been

The Planetary Health Diet. That's the diet that will keep us healthy and put food on the table for a future world population of 10 billion. But will it reduce strokes, premature deaths and greenhouse gas emissions? To find out, Agenda 2030 PhD student Anna Stubbendorff compared different dietary indices. Her own index came out on top, and the results are now published in the prestigious Lancet Pla

Researchers at Lund University and DTU in Copenhagen have discovered enzymes in the colon that, when mixed with red blood cells, can cut away parts of the carbohydrates that separate our ABO blood groups from each other. The method brings us closer to the dream of a universal blood for everyone. It has long been known that blood from different individuals cannot be mixed randomly without the risk

“Do you want to see what a box jellyfish sees and experiences when it rides a roller-coaster?” “We humans believe that what we see is reality, but it isn’t. It is an eminently human reality, filtered through our eyes. The visual world of animals shows different realities”, says Dan-Eric Nilsson.

När ett barn visar sig ha nedsatt hörsel – tänk då på att orsaken kan vara mitokondriell sjukdom. Det rådet ger Lundaforskare som tillsammans med amerikanska kollegor undersökt ett ovanligt stort antal personer med mitokondriell sjukdom. De har sett att det är avgörande var i DNA mutationen finns för när hörselnedsättningen debuterar. På det amerikanska sjukhuset Children´s hospital of Philadelphi

I en ny registerstudie från Lunds universitet har forskarna studerat 4 207 barn till 2 380 fäder behandlade för testikelcancer. Resultaten i studien, som publiceras i PLOS Medicine, visar att själva cancerbehandlingen inte medför en ökad risk att få barn med missbildningar. Det är välkänt att behandling med medicins
