Efforts to combat climate change tend to focus on supply-side changes, such as shifting to renewable or cleaner energy. In a Special Issue in the Energy Efficiency Journal that follows the IPCC Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5 ˚C, researchers argue that demand-side approaches can play a crucial role given the aspirational target outlined in the Paris Agreement. “We need to aggressively redu

It takes a long time, up to several decades, before the benefits of organic farming take full effect on land that was previously cultivated conventionally, a new study from Lund University suggests. After thirty years, the plant species richness around the cultivated crop had doubled on organic farms compared to conventional farms. It is well known that organic farming benefits biodiversity and ca

Scientists have found an alternative way to produce atoms of the superheavy element livermorium. The new method opens up the possibility of creating another element that could be the heaviest in the world so far: number 120. The search for new elements comes from the dream of finding a variant that is sufficiently stable to be long-lived and not prone to immediate decay. There is a theory in nucle

Carbon offsetting is an environmental strategy based on financing climate measures in developing countries to compensate for greenhouse gas emissions in industrialised countries. In recent years, it has become a popular strategy among companies as well as private individuals to reduce their carbon footprint.Tree-planting has become one of the most popular – albeit most controversial – forms of the

The next EU framework programme focuses on “missions” rather than the previous “societal challenges”. This in itself will be a challenge for a university focused on basic research such as LU and will require new working methods among funding bodies and researchers applying for grants, according to research liaison officer Sophie Hydén Picasso.

Christopher Douse, a new group leader at the Faculty of Medicine at Lund University, has been awarded the Ben Barres Early Career Acceleration Award by The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. This award includes a $1.2 million grant to support his lab’s exploration of the repetitive portion of the human genome, so-called ‘genomic dark matter’, and its role in human brain development and degeneration.

Cardiovascular and lung disease increase the risk of complications in COVID-19. Therefore, the Heart-Lung Foundation has granted SEK 3.1 million for five research projects at Lund University that will contribute to more knowledge about the effects of COVID-19. One of the researchers, Jonas Erjefält, professor in Medical Inflammation, has been granted SEK 1 million for mapping of immunological dise

A computational science hub, COSHE, has been established at Lund University. The aim is to become a creative hub for computational science with a focus on interdisciplinary research in the fields of health, climate and the environment. COSHE works with machine learning, statistical learning methods, physical system modeling and quantum computing. The research groups behind COSHE already have parti

A large proportion of our elite athletes are suffering psychological distress during the COVID-19 pandemic, with more women than men reporting adverse reactions. This is demonstrated by the study Psychological Distress and Problem Gambling in Elite Athletes during COVID-19 Restrictions: A Web Survey in Top Leagues of Three Sports during the Pandemic, published in the International Journal of Envir

In a collaborative study, researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center and University College London have developed a novel method of isolating ‘young’ stem cells still present in old mice. They show that activity of mitochondria, the power generators of the cell, is a stronger indicator of stem cell fitness than age and is a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of age associated disease. The
