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 major international study shows that if cardiac arrest patients are treated like heart attack patients only, this will potentially have negative consequences on their rehabilitation and return to working life. These patients often lack follow-up of the injuries they may have suffered to the brain in connection with

Solo living in your own home places a greater strain on the planet’s resources than living with others, as everyone needs their own appliances – a toaster, a washing machine and so on. The Nordic countries stand out: almost half of all households are solo living households. Sustainability researcher Tullia Jack interviewed people who live alone about the reasons for this and hopes for new forms of

PhD student Steinunn Knúts Önnudóttir not only has a background as a director, writer, theologian, life coach and actor. When she started her PhD in Lund, she was also an academic dean in her native Iceland. With the question 'How little is enough?' she has explored how little it really takes to create an artistic, transformative experience. Friday is the day of her defence. Steinunn Knúts Önnudót

Insulin secretion into the bloodstream requires a protein called CD59. New research led by Lund University shows that the two protein variants that are responsible for this function of CD59 are affected in diabetes. The study has been recently published in PNAS. Insulin affects many bodily functions, and is required for survival. It causes cells to take up glucose from the blood, storage of energy

Researchers from Lund University in Sweden collected wild flatworms from Malmö’s largest park, Pildammsparken. These creatures are masters at regenerating after injury. Now, for the first time, the worms’ unique ability to regenerate has been harnessed to help accelerate wound healing in human skin models. A research team at Lund University was recently contacted by researchers at a Korean skincar

For the first time, an international team of scientists have calculated the total land area that the countries of the world have included in their individual plans for climate action, known as nationally determined contributions. The results show a big divide between the countries' expected land use and the actual potential of land to mitigate climate change. “By totalling the aggregate land area
