The night vision of frogs and toads appears to be superior to that of all other animals. They have the ability to see colour even when it is so dark that humans are not able to see anything at all. This has been shown in a new study by researchers from Lund University in Sweden. Most vertebrates, including humans, have two types of visual cells located in the retina, namely cones and rods. The con

En satsning på de typ 1 diabetiker som hade den sämsta blodsockerkontrollen i Skaraborg gav tydliga resultat. Var tredje patient hade ett HbA1c över 70 och målet var att halvera antalet. Ett år senare hade siffran sjunkit från drygt 30 till 13 procent. Diabetesmottagningarna vid Skaraborgs sjukhus (Skövde, Lidköping, Falköping och Mariestad) deltog i Hissen-projektet. 2014 hade de totalt cirka 1 5

How can a bee fly straight home in the middle of the night after a complicated route through thick vegetation in search of food? For the first time, researchers have been able to show what happens in the brain of the bee. Bees and many other animals use what is known as optical flow to determine how fast they are going and how far they have moved through their environment. When ignoring all other

It can take a long time between words and action at the University, sometimes a little too long. This is one of the reasons the University management has developed a platform for strategic work. It speaks to what is most important to the University right now and will help it to act much faster as the world changes. Pandemic, war in Europe, fake news, increased polarisation at home and abroad and,

IT IS HIGH TIME that we start thinking about how we define life, according to a group of Lund University researchers. An army of intelligent robots is growing in front of us, but also opportunities to alter people’s DNA, create super babies and, perhaps, to encounter life in space.“Human beings have always dreamed of playing God. With the help of new technology, we are able to reduce unnecessary s

Frontotemporal demens startar relativt tidigt jämfört med andra demenssjukdomar och kunskapen om vad som orsakar sjukdomen är förhållandevis liten. Ny forskning från Lunds universitet visar att de veckningar i hjärnan som formas under senare delen av graviditeten kan ha betydelse för i vilken ålder som sjukdomen bryter ut.

The most important mineral in today's electric car batteries is lithium. China completely dominates the market, with no extraction taking place in Europe. However, a new study shows that there is great potential for European lithium production, which would bring improvements in competitiveness, the climate and security. The study also points out that there are complex international trade dependenc

Is it possible that a single biomarker can detect all types of diseases related to dopamine deficiency in the brain? Yes, that's what a research group in Lund is discovering. "We have observed that an enzyme in cerebrospinal fluid and in blood is a useful marker for identifying all types of Parkinson's-related diseases with high accuracy," says Oskar Hansson, who led the study.
