In his research in zebrafish, Olov Andersson of Karolinska Institutet strives to generate insulin-producing cells and new treatment methods for diabetes. This has led to his selection as a recipient of the Leif Groop award for outstanding research, awarded by the Lund University Diabetes Centre and sponsored by Novo Nordisk Sweden. “It is terrific for our research to be recognised in this way, par

It takes a long time, up to several decades, before the benefits of organic farming take full effect on land that was previously cultivated conventionally, a new study from Lund University suggests. After thirty years, the plant species richness around the cultivated crop had doubled on organic farms compared to conventional farms. It is well known that organic farming benefits biodiversity and ca

Mammography screening supported by artificial intelligence (AI) is a safe alternative to today’s conventional double reading by radiologists and can reduce heavy workloads for doctors. This has now been shown in an interim analysis of a prospective, randomised controlled trial, which addressed the clinical safety of using AI in mammography screening. The trial, led by researchers from Lund Univers

Where, how often, and how much it is going to rain or snow in the future is difficult to predict. Anders Ahlström studies the importance of precipitation for ecosystems on Earth – and contributes with new knowledge in a complex and fraught area. Across the world, researchers are in agreement on future warming patterns. However, future precipitation is more difficult to predict, and climate models

A new instrument on the four-metre VISTA telescope at the European Southern Observatory in Chile has recently captured its first starlight. This marks the beginning of a new era in astronomy, as researchers prepare to map the sky in unprecedented detail. The instrument does not take ordinary images of the night sky. Instead, 4MOST – the Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope – collects spectra, that

Joan Yuan, researcher and associate professor in immunology, receives the Eric K. Fernström prize for younger, particularly promising and successful researchers at Lund University in 2024. Her research is about how the immune system is formed and how it affects us throughout life. Award justification: "For her decisive discoveries that have changed our understanding of hematopoiesis and the immune

Johannes Stripple was one of nearly 1,000 people who ran a relay race, organised by the Swedish theatre company Riksteatern, from the Arctic to Paris – for life and the climate. Each participant had their own reasons why they wanted to participate in this climate initiative. For Johannes Stripple, it was about the frustration that so little progress has been made in the climate policy negotiations

Climate networks aim to strengthen municipalities’ efforts to combat climate change. But membership benefits need to be much clearer communicated in order to utilise the networks’ full potential; and should highlight the importance of network membership to drive local climate politics forward, argues researcher Henner Busch. Today, there exist a number of different transnational climate networks.

Within third-cycle education, as in the University as a whole, we are all different and as such we need to work according to the different subject conditions of the faculties. At the same time, we are more alike than we sometimes believe and there are advantages to having the same procedures and rules where possible, particularly when we see more interdisciplinary projects crossing departmental an

Patients suffering from myocardial infarction who receive early add-on lipid-lowering medication have a significantly better prognosis than those who receive add-on treatment late, or not all. Based on the results of a study from Lund University in Sweden, many new heart attacks, strokes and deaths could be prevented. Cardiovascular disease is by far the most common cause of death worldwide, and m

If we can understand how and why light and matter behave as they do, we are one step closer to solving some of the most fundamental problems in physics. Finding the answers to these questions drives Ville Maisi, Associate Professor of Solid States Physics at NanoLund. As long as he can remember he has been interested in electric circuits and physics.

In a recent paper, Fredrik N G Andersson explores the connection between economic inequality and the environment. He discovers that the relationship is complex, varying by time, location, and the specific environmental indicator. The most pronounced correlation is found between income inequality and energy use, which subsequently impacts greenhouse gas emissions. Structural shifts in the consumpti
