Increased carbon dioxide levels in air restrict plants ability to absorb nutrients

The rapidly rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere affect plants’ absorption of nitrogen, which is the nutrient that restricts crop growth in most terrestrial ecosystems. Researchers at the University of Gothenburg have now revealed that the concentration of nitrogen in plants’ tissue is lower in air with high levels of carbon dioxide, regardless of whether or not the plants’ growth is

Sea traffic pollutes our lungs more than previously thought

New data presented by researchers at Lund University and others in the journal Oceanologia show that the air along the coasts is full of hazardous nanoparticles from sea traffic. Almost half of the measured particles stem from sea traffic emissions, while the rest is deemed to be mainly from cars but also biomass combustion, industries and natural particles from the sea. “This is the first time an

Many diabetics could manage without insulin injections

All diabetics who developed the disease before the age of six months should be tested for a certain genetic mutation. Some of them might not need insulin injections but could manage their disease just as well, or better, with a simple tablet. “Neonatal diabetes is an uncommon form of diabetes caused by a genetic mutation, which means that insulin is not secreted in the right way”, says Sten Ivarss

People are trying to silence me

Kurds, human rights, nationalism and democracy are sensitive subjects. At least in Turkey today. When political scientist Umut Ozkirimli engages in his third mission as an academic, i.e. taking part in public debate, he gets death threats. At the moment, he receives as many as ten such threats per day. Umut Ozkirimli. Umut Ozkirimli, a political scientist from Turkey specialising in human rights,

Student innovation teaches children about sustainability

Students within the master’s programme in Environmental Studies and Sustainability Science (LUMES) have created a card came for children about the different sustainability issues connected to the lake Vombsjön and its surroundings. The game was developed within the course, Knowledge to Action (K2A), where students get to apply their knowledge to real world problems. – We developed a card game whic

Possible substitute for antibiotics to treat dangerous infections

A recently published paper identifies a new therapeutic target for the treatment of bacterial infections that regulates the immune response. Researchers at Lund University have now found an "off" switch for destructive inflammation in infected kidneys that does not impair the anti-bacterial defense Infections continue to threaten human health. With remarkable genetic flexibility, pathogenic organi

Rare pattern observed in migrating common swifts

Compared with other migratory birds, the common swift follows a very unusual pattern when it migrates from the breeding areas in Europe to its wintering locations south of the Sahara. This is what researchers have observed in a major eleven-year international study of the birds. “Our study is very significant for understanding how organisms, in this case the common swift, can migrate from one part
