The Arrival Day for international students who are to begin their studies at Lund University in the spring of 2022 is Monday 10 January, 2022. All the events during the reception day and introductory weeks have been adapted due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Lund University expects around 600 international students this spring. Just like the previous number of semesters during the ongoing pandemic, it

For the first time, researchers have been able to prove that city lights limit the ability of nocturnal animals to navigate by natural light in the night sky. Instead, they are forced to use streetlamps, neon light or floodlights to orient themselves. The findings are published in Current Biology. Some animals, including migratory birds, seals and moths, use light from the moon, stars and Milky Wa

What does online shopping mean for those living in rural areas? A lot, according to researchers in logistics at Lund University. Poorer access to products and services in the countryside makes shopping online an important option. But with an increasing number of e-business services adapted to big cities, rural areas risk being forgotten. E-commerce and logistic services generally work well for tho

An international research team has found a new method for predicting entire pollen seasons, something that can help healthcare and allergy sufferers plan to reduce problems. No similar tool has previously been used in the area. The researchers also show that pollen seasons may be 60 per cent more severe in the future due to climate change. For about one in four Swedes, the arrival of spring and su

This summer, Lund University doctoral student Sofia Blomqvist will be investigating how pollinating insects such as bumblebees and solitary bees are faring in flower-rich roadside habitats. However, there is one problem: bumblebee nests are very difficult to find. Now she hopes to be able to train Ylle the dog to help her. Sofia Blomqvist’s objective is to repeat a previously criticized scientific

In a study led by Lund University, researchers can show for the first time that traumatic brain injuries activate dormant endogenous retroviruses that have been inserted into human DNA over the course of millions of years. The activation of these viruses may be the driving force behind the inflammation that worsens the brain injury. The study is published in Cell Reports. In the event of head trau

Solar storms can be far more powerful than previously thought. A new study has found evidence for the third known case of a massive solar storm in historical times. The researchers believe that society might not be sufficiently prepared if a similar event were to happen now. Our planet is constantly being bombarded by cosmic particles. However, at times the stream of particles is particularly stro

A donated heart can now be transported and preserved for longer than what has previously been possible. The new method, which consists of a specially designed heart box, was used for a transplant for the first time as early as the summer of 2017. Now it has been evaluated in a first clinical study, and the results are published in Nature Communications. The results from the study show clear signs

Extensive power outages and satellite blackouts that affect air travel and the internet are some of the potential consequences of massive solar storms. These storms are believed to be caused by the release of enormous amounts of stored magnetic energy due to changes in the magnetic field of the sun’s outer atmosphere - something that until now has eluded scientists’ direct measurement. Researchers

Students from the 30th batch of the EMP program at the IIIEE will be part of the Lund University delegation to the Bonn Climate Conference (SB60) this Summer, translating knowledge into practice. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is an international treaty addressing climate change and reducing greenhouse gasses. It provides a framework countries can follow to coll

COP29, the United Nations Climate Change Conference, has just started in Baku, Azerbaijan. Running from 11th to 22nd November, a key priority for this year's climate conference is to secure a new goal on climate finance, ensuring every country has the means to take much stronger climate action, slashing greenhouse gas emissions and building resilient communities.

A few sharp minds working together for almost an entire summer. The task: to tackle the problem that a couple of days of work generates so much data, that it would take months to analyse. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction is a technique that allows us to obtain precise and detailed structural information of materials and their properties, and to fundamentally understand physical processes at the atomi
