By studying green algae in Swedish lakes, a research team, led by Lund University in Sweden, has succeeded in identifying which environmental conditions promote multicellularity. The results give us new clues to the amazing paths of evolution. The evolution of multicellular life has played a pivotal role in shaping biological diversity. However, we have up until now known surprisingly little about

The rare metal terbium has been found in an exoplanet’s atmosphere for the first time. The researchers at Lund University in Sweden have also developed a new method for analyzing exoplanets, making it possible to study them in more detail. KELT-9 b is the galaxy’s hottest exoplanet, orbiting its distant star about 670 light years from Earth. The celestial body, with an average temperature of a sta

Small bats are bad at converting energy into muscle power. Surprisingly, a new study led by Lund University reveals that this ability increases the faster they fly. The researchers have studied the efficiency of migratory bats – a species that weighs about eight grams and is found in almost all of Europe. Efficiency, in this case, is the ability to convert supplied energy into something we need. F

A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the ability of microorganisms to adapt to climate warming will slow down global warming by storing carbon in soil. In the study, researchers collected soil samples from across Europe in a wide range of temperatures, from minus 3.1 to 18.3 degrees Celsius. The samples revealed that microorganisms in soils – such as bacteria and fungi – are stron

Insects heavily rely on bacteria for essential nutrients that are lacking in their diet. This has allowed insects to access a wide variety of food, leading to remarkable species diversification in some cases, according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden. Insects are crucial for biodiversity and among the most successful species on the planet. However, until now, it has been unclear how

Great tits in urban environments have lower levels of stress hormone than those living in woodland habitats. This according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden. Certain animals are able to adjust well to environments that have been created or altered by human activity. We live in an age in which urbanisation is proceeding at an ever-faster rate, something that also affects fauna. The gre

The dry summer of 2018 hit Swedish forests hard - and hardest affected were the managed secondary forests. This according to a new study from Lund University. Northern boreal forest ecosystems are predicted to experience more frequent summer droughts in the future. The majority of Swedish forest are secondary forests that are managed commercial forests with little diversity in species and structur

Why are certain people more severely affected than others by invasive streptococcal infections? According to a new study from Lund University in Sweden, the answer lies in our genome. Carriers of a certain variant of the STING gene are at greater risk, particularly if they encounter the bacterial strains that have increased in the western world since the 1980s. The findings, published in Nature Co

Corrosion-resistant metallic materials are required in applications such as rocket engines, nuclear power stations and chemical industry. An alloy of nickel, chromium and molybdenum is often used. However, a new study shows that this alloy rusts in a previously unknown way. Buildings, modes of transport, artworks and music instruments – we encounter metallic materials almost everywhere in society.

A new study conducted by researchers in Europe shows that urban great tits have paler plumage than their countryside counterparts. Since the yellow pigment of the breast feathers of great tits comes from the food they eat, the paler yellow plumage of urban birds indicates that the urban environment affects the entire food chain. As urban areas expand, animals increasingly find themselves living in

One result of climate change is that spring is arriving earlier. However, migratory birds are not keeping up with these developments and arrive too late for the peak in food availability when it is time for breeding. By getting the birds to fly a little further north, researchers in Lund, Sweden, and the Netherlands have observed that these birds can give their chicks a better start in life. Globa

För att öka samverkan mellan olika aktörer i det omgivande samhället, utbildning och forskning startar nu ett nytt Advisory Board på Institutionen för service management och tjänstevetenskap. Målet är att skapa en mötesplats för att lyfta gemensamma frågor, hitta nya samarbeten och ha ett ömsesidigt utbyte.- För oss är det viktigt att få input och nya perspektiv som kan bidra till att utveckla båd

Elisabeth Högdahl har tillsammans med Anja Petersen skrivit ett kapitel i den nya antologin "Creating the City. Identity, Memory and Participation. Conference proceedings", utgiven av Malmö universitet. Kapitlet handlar om hur olika former av historiebruk bidrar till att skapa bilder av städer där vissa fenomen och människor innesluts, medan andra hamnar utanför normen för hur historia ska och bör

De som arbetar inom skola och socialtjänst möter och formar kommande generationer. Det ställer krav på att deras resurser används effektivt, så att de kommer till största möjliga nytta för barnen som förvaltningarna har gemensamt ansvar för. I ett utvecklingsarbete har därför en modell tagits fram för att kunna räkna på tid, kostnader och samverkan mellan skola och socialtjänst under barnavårdsutr
