In an unusual research project, a geochemist and a tumour biologist have joined forces to explain the emergence of animals in a new way, thereby questioning one of the cornerstones of evolution. Geochemist Emma Hammarlund is excited to see w

The war in Gaza is testing alliances and shaking up politics, both globally and regionally. What does this mean for the West's relationship with the Middle East? How are inter-regional dynamics affected? And what is the impact of the war in Israel? Read an interview with Karin Aggestam, Political Scientist and Director of the Centre for Advanced Middle Eastern Studies. What geopolitical consequenc

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. New research shows that it is possible to predict the development of type 1 diabetes. By measuring the presence of autoantibodies in the blood, it is possible to detect whether the immune system has begun to break down the body’s own insulin cells. “In the TEDDY study we have found that autoantibodies often appear dur

Extreme weather poses a big threat to birds. Yet there is a lack of both knowledge and methods for measuring its negative effects. In a new study, researchers from Lund University in Sweden have identified knowledge gaps and propose practical tools for analysing the risks to birds. Extreme weather has become increasingly common worldwide, often in the form of combinations of heat and drought. Thes

In high-demand public services where priority pricing aims to ration access, like medical appointments or visa renewals, a new study by Prakriti Thami reveals that this approach may not always benefit consumers. In settings where public services are capacity-constrained and timely access is critical, such as medical appointments, passport renewals, or visa processing, priority pricing is often use

Hur trovärdiga är forskningsresultat egentligen? En ny biologistudie visar att samma data kan ge olika svar beroende på analysmetod – vilket väcker frågor om vetenskapliga slutsatsers stabilitet. För att stärka trovärdigheten behöver forskare bli bättre på att redovisa metoderna. Ända sedan 1600-talet, när den moderna naturvetenskapliga forskningen såg dagens ljus, har metoderna förfinats och förb

A new study from Lund University in Sweden has shown no correlation between obesity and how close you live to fast food restaurants or gyms. Studies from other countries have previously indicated that these factors may be important in adult obesity. The areas where we live are known to be important for our health. For example, obesity is more prevalent in deprived neighbourhoods. Deprived neighbou

Turning scientific knowledge into solutions that improve people’s lives is the ultimate goal of research. But the path from novel scientific data to an innovation that may impact health care is long; many promising ideas never get a fair chance.
