BECC yearly meeting

An exciting, interesting and well-visited BECC annual meeting went off October 17-18 at Falkenberg Grand Hotel. The program was filled with lessons from the past and implications for the future regarding biodiversity conservation and policy. The meeting ended with perspectives from a climate journalist and his great tips on how to communicate climate research to the public (and journalists!).

EU payments to farmers fail to deliver on competitiveness and sustainability

Over 40 billion euro is given annually to European agriculture as direct payments under the Common Agricultural Policy. Yet, the policy fails to deliver on what EU citizens are promised. This is a key message from new research by AgriFood Economics Centre and Centre for Environmental and Climate Research at Lund University. Direct payments are area-based income support under the Common Agricultura

Colourful photo reveals cannibalism in galaxy cluster

Astronomers have managed to take unusually colourful images of a group of galaxies using a telescope in Hawaii. The photos reveal new facts about this spectacular galaxy cluster. Remnants of star matter attest to a phenomenon known as galactic cannibalism. At a distance of approximately 250 million light years from our planet lies a galaxy cluster called Stephan’s Quintet. It consists of several c

Unique study of 1,000 modern burials

When the city of Copenhagen decided to build a new underground station in the Assistens Cemetery where many famous Danes are buried, they had to remove part of the entire north-eastern corner of the cemetery and re-bury the people who had been laid to rest in this area.

Plant substance inhibits cancer stem cells

Lab experiments show that the chemical compound damsin found in the plant Ambrosia arborescens inhibits the growth and spread of cancer stem cells. The similar but synthetically produced ambrosin has the same positive effect, according to researchers at Lund University and University Major of San Andrés in La Paz, Bolivia. The plant Ambrosia arborescens grows at a high elevation in large parts of

How plant cells regulate growth shown for the first time

Researchers have managed to show how the cells in a plant, a multicellular organism, determine their size and regulate their growth over time. The findings overturn previous theories in the field and are potentially significant for the future of agriculture and forestry - as it reveals more about one of the factors which determine the size of plants and fruits. “We have looked at how the cells in

Faculty management strengthens links with LINXS

In March this year, LINXS received a new organisational placement within the Faculty of Science. Rather than being part of the Department of Chemistry, LINXS is now established as a separate unit reporting directly to the Dean. The decision follows a strategic review and an external evaluation of the organisation conducted last year, both of which yielded very positive results.Established in 2017,
