Sveriges mål om klimat och om biologisk mångfald riskerar att missas utan kraftfullare åtgärder

Sverige riskerar att missa viktiga klimat- och miljörelaterade mål om inte ambitionerna höjs de kommande åren. Det konstaterar flera forskare från Lunds universitet i ett yttrande till Miljömålsberedningens förslag om en strategi för hur Sverige ska leva upp till EU:s åtaganden inom biologisk mångfald respektive nettoupptag av växthusgaser från markanvändningssektorn. Remissvar publicerat 15 juli

Ny AI-modell från Lund med stor potential att minska kirurgi vid bröstcancer

I ett projekt vid Lunds universitet tränas en AI-modell till att hitta de bröstcancerpatienter som kan avstå ingrepp i armhålan. Modellen analyserar tidigare outnyttjad information i mammografibilder, och ringar med hög träffsäkerhet in den individuella risken för metastaser i armhålan. I en nyligen avslutad studie visar modellen att drygt 40 procent av dagens kirurgiska ingrepp i armhålan skulle

Mer miljönytta för pengarna i EU:s jordbrukspolitik

Hur kan jordbrukspolitiken bli mer samhällsekonomiskt effektiv? En ny avhandling från Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC), Lunds universitet, visar hur styrmedel med regional anpassning kan ge mer miljönytta för pengarna. Doktoranden Cecilia Larsson beskriver jordbruket som en sektor där olika samhällsmål ständigt måste vägas mot varandra. Jordbruket kan bidra till livsmedelstrygghet, lev

Fler blomrika livsmiljöer behövs för pollinatörer i jordbrukslandskapet

Pollinatörer som bin, humlor och fjärilar har för lite livsmiljöer (habitat) som dessutom ofta är av otillräcklig kvalitet. En ny studie genomförd av forskare från mer än 20 lärosäten – däribland CEC och Biologiska institutionen vid Lunds universitet – visar att dessa insekter kan dra nytta av att öka arealen av deras habitat betydligt mer än vad som idag föreskrivs i EU:s strategi för biologisk m

Migratory birds take breaks to boost their immune system

Exercising too much and not getting enough rest is bad for your health. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the same is true for migratory birds. They need to rest not only to renew their energy levels but also in order to boost their immune system. After a period of physical exertion, vertebrates, including humans, usually need a period of recovery. Apart from the obvious – lowe

Epilepsy could become easier to pinpoint with blood test

Researchers from Lund University in Sweden have discovered higher levels of immune proteins in the blood before and after an epileptic seizure. The possible biomarkers can be identified using a simple blood test. Diagnosing epilepsy is currently resource intensive, and distinguishing it from other conditions can be challenging. Better diagnostic methods as soon as the patient seeks medical care af

Three crops we might see on supermarket shelves more often

Despite sweet lupin, buck wheat and amaranth being nutritious and climate-smart crops, we eat them only rarely. Engineering students studying food technology at Lund University in Sweden have recently developed completely new experimental products in which those crops play a key role – and perhaps provide a clue to the range on offer in the food shops of the future. Each year a group of students o

Cities will need more resilient electricity networks to cope with extreme weather

Dense urban areas amplify the effects of higher temperatures, due to the phenomenon of heat islands in cities. This makes cities more vulnerable to extreme climate events. Large investments in the electricity network will be necessary to cool us down during heatwaves and keep us warm during cold snaps, according to a new study led by Lund University in Sweden. “Unless we account for extreme climat

Revealed: Molecular “superpower” of antibiotic-resistant bacteria

A species of ordinary gut bacteria that we all carry flourishes when the intestinal flora is knocked out by a course of antibiotics. Since the bacteria is naturally resistant to many antibiotics, it causes problems, particularly in healthcare settings. A study led from Lund University in Sweden now shows how two molecular mechanisms can work together make the bacterium extra resistant. “Using this

Bird feeding helps small birds fight infection

Seeds and fat balls do more than just fill small birds’ stomachs. New research from Lund University in Sweden shows that feeding during the wintertime causes birds to be healthier, since they do not have to expend as much energy fighting infections. A small change in body temperature can be fatal for humans. Small birds, meanwhile, lower their body temperature at night by several degrees during th

Nature as a model for greener cities

Swapping concrete and asphalt for trees, ponds and green roofs is an example of how cities can be adapted to cope with heavy rain and climate change. But time is running out. For nature-based solutions to have a global impact, we need to act fast, according to researchers. A late summer’s day in August 2014, 100 mm of rain fell over the course of a 24-hour period in the Sofielund area in Malmö. Ba

Flowers that benefit both bees and biodiversity

An increasing number of people want to help bees and other pollinators by growing flowers that are rich in pollen and nectar. But which flowers are the most beneficial? If the point is to aid threatened bee species and biodiversity, then a variety of native plants is the way to go. If you are a farmer, with large areas of insect-pollinated crops, it might be easiest to aim for a few species of flo
