Last Tuesday, our PhD Candidate Lisa Heldt “nailed” her freshly printed PhD thesis. This traditional “spikning” takes place three weeks and three days before the official defense and it involves the PhD Candidate nailing (att spika in Swedish) their physical thesis to a public board where it can be read and scrutinized by the public before the official defense ceremony. At the same time, the spikn

Moonlight determines when the red-necked nightjar feeds, migrates and raises its young. A groundbreaking long-term study from Lund University shows how the migratory bird’s entire annual cycle follows the moon’s rhythm. “… the lovely, melancholy moonlight, which makes the birds dream in the trees…”The French poet Paul Verlaine was seemingly wrong in his famous poem Clair de Lune. Moonlight does no

We tend to attribute today's zoological menagerie of dog breeds to Victorian gentlemen with a penchant for selective breeding. The truth, however, goes back much further. An international study shows that the rich morphological variety among dogs began to take off 11,000 years ago – long before nineteenth century kennel clubs. Look at the dogs of today: the dainty Chihuahua, which most resembles a

At present, viscose textiles are made of biomass from the forest, and there is no such thing as fully recycled viscose. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now succeeded in making new viscose – from worn-out cotton sheets. Old textiles around the world end up at the rubbish tip and are often burned. In Sweden, they are generally burned to produce district heating. Extensive development w

Obesitas diagnosticeras ofta genom mätning av BMI, men metoden har flera begränsningar. Forskare vid Lunds universitet och AstraZeneca visar att mätning av både kroppsfettprocent och midjemått bättre fångar risk för sjukdom jämfört med mätning av enbart BMI. På senare år har forskning visat att det finns flera begränsningar med mätning av enbart BMI när det gäller att bedöma mängden och fördelning

How we feel about nature affects the gardening choices we make and how much those choices benefit pollinators. A new study from Lund University highlights this connection, particularly in the context of widespread urbanisation, which is reducing both green spaces and people’s contact with nature. The researchers also show that for pollinators in cities, gardens with plantings kept over many years

In the Colombian rainforest, cattle ranching is spreading and leading to forest fires and deforestation. This threatens the environment, climate and indigenous people in the Amazon. More efficient use of existing pastures and alternative livelihoods are some of the factors needed to protect the rainforest, according to a new thesis by Jesica López.

Metformin beskrivs ofta som en trotjänare för behandling av typ 2-diabetes, men alla blir inte hjälpta av läkemedlet. Forskare vid Lunds universitet har upptäckt en kombination av biomarkörer som kan förutsäga vilka personer som får nytta av behandlingen. Nu fortsätter arbetet med att bekräfta resultaten i en större patientgrupp, med målet att utveckla ett test som kan användas av sjukvården. Läke
