Vetenskap & Hälsa: Aktivering av gamla virus orsakar inflammation senare i livet

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Är du intresserad i vår forskning? Läs om vår studie som visar att dysreglering av endogena retrovirus under hjärnans utveckling kan leda till både inflammation i hjärnan och genuttrycksmönster som är förbundna med olika neurologiska sjukdomar senare i livet.

What makes us human? The answer may be found in overlooked DNA.

Read about our research on a previously overlooked part of our DNA, so-called non-coded DNA. Our DNA is very similar to that of the chimpanzee, which in evolutionary terms is our closest living relative. Stem cell researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now found a previously overlooked part of our DNA, so-called non-coded DNA, that appears to contribute to a difference which, despite all ou

Outforskat DNA förklarar skillnaden mellan människa och schimpans

Läs här om vår forskning om en tidigare förbisedd del i vårt DNA, så kallat icke-kodat DNA. Vårt DNA är mycket likt schimpansens, som evolutionärt är vår närmaste levande släkting. Nu har stamcellsforskare i Lund hittat en tidigare förbisedd del i vårt DNA, så kallat icke-kodat DNA, som tycks bidra till en skillnad som trots alla våra likheter kan förklara varför våra hjärnor fungerar olika.  Läs

Frida Reisdal is exam coordinator at the Faculty of Medicine

What does your work consist of? As a coordinator, I have an overarching perspective since I work with all the faculty’s programmes. My job is partly to coordinating all written exams in the QPS system, and optimise the processes around this, and partly to provide training and support to the faculty's teachers and administrators. Currently I am focused on the written exams, but further on I will wo

Guest lecture: Karin Rehnqvist

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. This lecture (in English) is a result of a collaboration between the choral teachers at the Academies of Music in Sweden. Due to the corona pandemic, we see the need of strengthening the choral life, and we also see new possibilities to use digital tools to arrange exchange projects to enrich the choral education. W

UN Climate Report on April 4th: “What matters now is zero emissions”

In connection with a new report on measures to mitigate climate change, researchers at Lund University in Sweden see some hopeful signs. Among other things, Lars J Nilsson, Professor of Environmental and Energy Systems at Lund University, thinks there are good prospects for achieving zero emissions by 2050 in industries such as steel, cement, and chemicals, which are currently responsible for majo

National symposium in Norrköping focuses on climate research

What is happening to the climate and what role does climate research play in society? The strategic research areas MERGE and BECC, the Bolin Centre for Climate Research and SMHI are together arranging a climate symposium in Norrköping on 16-18 May 2022, the Swedish Climate Symposium. The conference means that Sweden's largest players in climate research gather for the first time for a major sympos

How is nature to be valued? New report on the way from IPBES

Is it possible to put a value on nature and the vital ecosystem services it provides for us? What are the pros and cons of different valuation models? These are the key questions addressed in a new report by IPBES, the UN’s biodiversity panel, to be published on 11 July. The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) can be described as the equivalent

The Vice-Chancellor says yes to the ClimBioSis profile area

A Vice-Chancellor’s decision has been taken on five profile areas for Lund University. One of the areas is ClimBioSis, which involves several CEC researchers. Thirty researchers from over a dozen departments at Lund University were behind the profile area application for Sustainable solutions in the climate change – biodiversity – social nexus – ClimBioSis. “The application is based on a fantastic

Climate change makes carbon sinks more vulnerable

New data by the research infrastructure ICOS confirms that natural carbon sinks such as the ocean and forests are not stable. Climate change makes these sinks more vulnerable, in some cases even turning them into carbon emitters. This compromises current climate targets and action plans, reserachers say. Fluxes, the European Greenhouse Gas Bulletin, is a new publication by the reserach infrastruct

Less bird diversity in city forests

A new study led by Lund University in Sweden shows that cities negatively affect the diversity of birds. There are significantly fewer bird species in urban forests compared with forests in the countryside – even if the forest areas are of the same quality. The researchers examined 459 natural woodlands located in or near 32 cities in southern Sweden. They counted the occurrence of different bird

Complex consequences of a warmer Arctic

Effects of a warmer Arctic are not only negative for the climate, according to a new thesis from the Centre for Environmental and Climate Science at Lund University, Sweden. Modelling showed that moving the tree line upwards could increase carbon storage, as trees sequester more carbon in their biomass than tundra plants. But the results are uncertain. The Arctic – the area north of the Arctic Cir

A clear-cut forest provides essential information for climate research

The machines have started rolling in at Norunda and are cutting down trees, one by one. Norunda is Sweden’s oldest measuring station for greenhouse gases and it is unique. Following several decades of being surrounded by a hundred-year-old forest, it will instead be surrounded by a clear-cut. - We expect a significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions, says professor Natascha Kljun at CEC.

Interdisciplinary research school on Skåne’s beaches

The coast is changing. The sea is encroaching further inland, and the shoreline of childhood memory no longer looks the same. Climate change is impacting beaches and the sea, but time is also a factor. Someone who knows a lot about changes to the Skåne coastline is Caroline Hallin. She is a coastal engineer whose research focuses on erosion, storm surges and nature-adapted coastal protection at th
