Forskare vid Lunds universitet har tillsammans med kollegor vid synkotronanläggningen NIST i USA, på atomnivå kartlagt vad som sker i en viruspartikel när temperaturen höjs. – När temperaturen höjs, byter virusets genetiska material form samt densitet och blir mer vätskeliknande – vilket leder till att det snabbt injiceras i cellen, säger Alex Evilevitch, som lett studien som nu publiceras i PNAS.

In 2020, the UN General Assembly received a report on academic freedom from the UN Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion and expression. Based on the report, a working group has consulted widely and drafted 9 ’Principles for Implementing the Right of Academic Freedom’. These principles are now released to guide the protection of academic freedom. Dis

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. This year’s Association of American Geographers’ conference got me thinking about maps. I’ve been to a fair few geography conferences but, funny enough, have never really come across very many maps. Or, rather, have given them very little thought. This year, wherever I turned there they were. And they were truly, deep

Our city centres and their development are a subject of constant debate. Ulf Johansson suggests that, if we let the market decide, our city centres will eventually be emptied of retail. Most recently, representatives from our food retailers suggested to municipalities that regulations on establishment locations be relaxed, advocating for the mantra of letting the market rule (Dagligvarunytt 2022a,

In addition to memory problems and other cognitive symptoms, most people with Alzheimer’s disease also suffer from mental health issues. It has long been unclear whether these occur because of tissue changes in the brain, or whether they represent psychological reactions to cognitive symptoms. A study from Lund University in Sweden has provided new insight, and is published in Biological Psychiatr
