Bakterien 'Staphylococcus aureus', den gula stafylokocken, är vanligt förekommande i vår omgivning, på huden och i näsan. Den kan orsaka lindriga infektioner, men också allvarlig infektion om bakterien kommer in i blodbanan; vilket drabbar ungefär 2000 personer årligen i Sverige. Bakterierna kan slå sig ner i kroppen, till exempel i leder eller på hjärtklaffar och kräver vanligen minst 10 dagar in

Each month, we publish a short update on the department’s air travel. In January, flying corresponded to 0.10 tonnes of CO2e per full-time employee. That is close to the level we need to stay at to reach our departmental target: to halve emissions from air travel compared with 2024, an important step towards contributing to the Paris Agreement’s 2030 goals. But this figure should be interpreted wi

An increasing number of people want to help bees and other pollinators by growing flowers that are rich in pollen and nectar. But which flowers are the most beneficial? If the point is to aid threatened bee species and biodiversity, then a variety of native plants is the way to go. If you are a farmer, with large areas of insect-pollinated crops, it might be easiest to aim for a few species of flo
