Through the DNA analysis of old air samples collected by the Swedish Armed Forces, researchers at Lund University in Sweden can show that spore dispersal of northern mosses has shifted over the past 35 years. It now starts several weeks earlier, revealing how quickly nature’s calendar can reset in line with a warmer climate. When the Swedish military began collecting air samples in the 1960s to re

Anne‑Lise Viotti, researcher at the Division of Atomic Physics, has been awarded a five‑year research grant of SEK 15 million from ÅForsk. The funding will enable her group to deepen and further develop their work on ultrafast extreme ultraviolet (XUV) light, an area with significant potential for both fundamental science and future technological applications. Paving the way for new understanding

Edouard Berrocal, a university lecturer at the Department of Physics, has developed a new method to test hazy liquids using scattered light. Read about how he combines his academic career with his role as the founder of Spec-Imaging AB. Spec-Imaging is the company that builds on Edouard Berrocal’s research. Previously, it was often not possible to make reliable measurements of hazy, or what are ca

Care and circular consumption, can they go hand in hand? For some, it’s what drives their consumption of items and clothes. Réka Tölg, a doctoral student at the Department of Service Studies, has recently published two papers on the topic of clothing consumption, circularity and care, one by herself and one with fellow Service Studies colleague Professor Christian Fuentes. These papers focus on ho

A new research study has shed light on the underground interaction between tree roots and fungi. In order to understand how this important symbiosis came about, an international team of researchers have sequenced the genomes of different fungi that live underground. The study shows that in the course of evolution, the symbiotic fungi have lost many genes present in their free-living ancestors, and

A groundbreaking study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the Australian Bogong moth uses the stars and the Milky Way as a compass during its annual 1,000-kilometre journey to cool inland caves. It also reveals that the Earth’s magnetic field plays an important role in the enigmatic moth’s navigation. It is absolutely amazing considering the length of the journey. It’s the equivalent of a h

As artificial intelligence reshapes the retail industry, it is crucial not to lose sight of its essence. Researchers, students, and industry representatives gathered for a NEXUS seminar moderated by marketing researcher Patrik Stoopendahl at LUSEM. The discussion centered on how new AI capabilities can be integrated into retail without losing what has always been fundamental: customer understandin

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Workplace incivility should be treated with the utmost seriousness. This is the finding of three psychologists at Lund University in Sweden who surveyed nearly 6 000 people on the social climate in the workplace. Their studies show that being subjected to rudeness is a major reason for dissatisfaction at work and that

Den vanligaste cancerformen hos barn är en viss typ av lymfatisk leukemi. Idag överlever de flesta barn som drabbas, men behandlingen är tung. I ett försök att hitta en mer skonsam behandling har forskare vid Lunds universitet utvecklat en immunterapi som i avancerade experimentella modeller effektivt dödar cancerceller i en undergrupp av leukemi. För bara 80 år sedan dog i stort sett alla barn me

The stiffness of tumour tissue plays a role in how cancer spreads. Furthermore, stiff tumour tissue leaves traces in the affected cells. This is shown by two recent research studies from Lund University.
