During the week beginning with December 4, all mailboxes will be migrated to a new e-mail service, Exchange online. The benefit of moving to Microsoft's online servers, instead of e-mails going through e-mail servers at Lund University, is that we get access to better monitoring and management systems for malicious e-mails. As a user, you will not notice any difference, except that the text ***SPA

When humans are ill, we tend to be less active. This also applies to wild animals, but so far, it has not been known how long the reduced activity lasts or which activities are affected the most. New research from Lund University in Sweden shows that birds' activity decreases for up to three weeks when they become ill - something that could mean the difference between life and death.

Most milk powders you buy have been produced through spray drying. This means that the milk after some preprocessing is injected under high-pressure through a small hole into a warm room. Then almost instantly, the liquid evaporates leaving the powder. The final product now has a longer shelf life, lower transport weight and can be stored in room temperature. However it is a very energy consuming

Contained within Greenland’s millennia-old ice are the traces of gigantic solar storms. Geology professor Raimund Muscheler is now undertaking a major initiative to chart the storms back through time, to improve our knowledge of potentially dangerous solar flares. Our sun is currently in an active phase which is seeing an increased number of solar storms. During such events, particles from the sun

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
