This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In recent years, researchers have tried to capture the electrical current that bacteria generate through their own metabolism. So far, however, the transfer of the current from the bacteria to a receiving electrode has not been efficient at all. Now, researchers from institutions including Lund University have achieve

Stem cell transplantation is a cornerstone in the treatment of blood malignancies. In order to succeed, stem cells need to be harvested from a donor. This requires that hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) are mobilized from the donor’s bone marrow into the blood. In a new study, the Nilsson lab discovered DNA sequence variants that regulate HSPC levels in human blood, exposing potential

Growing forests can limit climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store the carbon in their biomass as they grow. How much carbon a forest stores varies between tree species, the forests age, weather conditions and how the forest is managed. Young growing forests store a lot of carbon, as the forest gets older the carbon sequestration capacity decreases. When trees are f

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Leading California-based company within quantum dot light-emitting materials and technology, Nanosys, has acquired the NanoLund spin-off company Glo AB – thus forming one of the world’s leading companies in the field of displays. Glo was founded in 2003 based on research and key know-how within the field of III-Nitrid

In a pioneering nano experiment, a research team in Lund has successfully constructed a new and very efficient microwave photon detector. The discovery could accelerate the development of future quantum computers. Microwaves are a collective term for electromagnetic radiation in the higher radio frequency bands; they can be used for everything from warming up fish dishes to searching for extraterr

With the help of mirrors, placed only a few hundred nanometers apart, a research team has managed to use light more efficiently. The finding could eventually be useful for controlling solar energy conversion during photosynthesis, or other reactions driven by light. For example, one application could be converting carbon dioxide into fuel. The sunlight that hits Earth for one hour is almost equiva

Anders Persson, Senior Lecturer at the Department of Biology, will receive SEK 2.8 million from the Kamprad Family Foundation. The grant will support research on artificial reefs aimed at helping the endangered Baltic cod.Congratulations on the grant, Anders – how does it feel?– It’s amazing! We’re a small group that has been working for a long time to develop methods for studying reefs, mostly wi

Last week the new batch of LUMES students had their first field day for the course Earth Systems Science in Lund’s botanical garden. We took the opportunity to talk to three of them about the course and their impressions of the LUMES programme, so far. Earth Systems Science is one of the first courses of the LUMES programme. The course focuses on the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of t

Sparta, Östgöta Nation, AF-Borgen – and the kitchen and basement of LTH’s Assistant Dean Annika Mårtensson’s. These are some of the locations featured in the film “Ett ärligt liv” (An Honest Life), which is set in Lund and premiered recently. “An Honest Life” is a story that is, to say the least, intertwined with both Lund as a city and the university environment as such. The film is based on a no
