This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Climate change, a growing population and increased urbanisation place great demands on our cities. Meeting these challenges requires collaboration to develop smart cities. But what does a smart city really mean and how do we create one?A smart city is a sustainable city. A city in which people want to live, where comp

Researchers at Lund University have developed a new framework that can lead to the Öresund Link, thanks to the right maintenance at the right time and smart monitoring, having a total lifespan of 200 years. This is twice as long as envisaged when the bridge was inaugurated 25 years ago. The results come from the interdisciplinary research project EXTEND, which is led by Sebastian Thöns and Ivar Bj

I en liten undersökning har forskare från universitet i Michigan, USA, visat att kroppens känslighet för insulin ökade med mer än 30 procent efter tre måltider inom 24 timmar med lågt innehåll av kolhydrater. En kost med högre andel kolhydrater förbättrade inte insulinkänsligheten vilket enligt forskarna kan leda ti

A team of researchers from Lund University and the Lund Stem Cell Center have developed a new memory-efficient tool for single-cell genomic analysis called Scarf. Now available in Nature Communications, this innovative, bioinformatics software has the potential to help researchers navigate a growing treasure trove of data and set them on the path to answering new scientific questions related to hu

When the Covid-19 pandemic swept across the world in 2020, the mRNA vaccines came to the rescue of many people – but in the background there was another, lesser known, hero: the lipid nanoparticle. Without these tiny “fat droplets”, the vaccines could never have been delivered into the body’s cells. And the fact is that these small particles will probably have more assignments in the future. It co

Professor Emily Boyd will present immobility as a climate adaptation strategy at the United Nations Climate Change Conference, COP30, in Belém, Brazil. “The majority of people want to stay in place. We need to acknowledge and explore that as we adapt societies to climate change.” She explains that she was motivated to start researching the findings she is now presenting at COP30 with international

Ten years have passed since the countries of the world signed the Paris Agreement. Political scientist Fariborz Zelli sums up the surprises – both positive and negative – in climate policy over the past ten years and also looks ahead. What has been the biggest success of the Paris Agreement so far?I would say the biggest success is that the UN has succeeded in keeping its central role in global cl

An evolutionary perspective should be taken into account to ensure long-term crop pollination. This is the conclusion of an article published by BECC and CEC-affiliated researchers at Lund University. The researchers build on recent findings that evolutionary processes, in response to landscape change, are happening faster than previously thought. The article presents a model that can help us unde

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Hyperglycemia starts a complex chain of events that damages blood vessels and cause cardiovascular disease. Scientists at Lund University Diabetes Centre (LUDC) have now been able to demonstrate why this happens, as well as how the destructive chain can be broken. This discovery represents a crucial step towards an ef

De frågar inte varför diabetespatienter får komplikationer utan varför en minoritet slipper. Vad det är som skyddar dem? PROLONG-undersökningen kanske ger svaret. - Majoriteten av alla diabetiker får med tiden allvarliga eller dödliga följdsjukdomar, men inte alla, 10-15 procent klarar

Researchers from Lund University, building on previous studies, have been working to understand why stem cells are transforming into cancer. Previously they revealed that small RNA molecules, long considered “junk” or degradation byproducts of RNA-sequencing, are emerging as key regulators of important cellular processes, like protein synthesis. Their latest discovery is published in Nature Cell B
