Migratory songbirds climb to extreme altitudes during daytime
Great reed warblers normally migrate by night during its month-long migration from northern Europe to Sub-Saharan Africa. However, researchers have now discovered that during the few occasions when it continues to fly during daytime, it flies at extremely high altitudes (up to 6300 meters). One possible explanation for this unexpected and consistent behaviour could be that the birds want to avoid

Spring meeting 2019 – BECC MERGE jointly on the Sustainable Development Goals
During 7-8 of May, 80 researchers within BECC and MERGE met to learn about the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, and how their research can be linked, and contribute, to the implementation of the goals. We are just as far from reaching the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) as Burkina Faso. We just have different challenges.This is one of many terse quotes delivered by Katherine Richardson, pr

Remarkably preserved fossil sea reptile reveals skin that is still soft
The remains of an 180 million-year-old ichthyosaur (literally ‘fish-lizard’) have been analysed, and the fossil is so well-preserved that its soft-tissues retain some of their original pliability. The study, published in Nature, contributes to our understanding on how convergent evolution works, and shows that ichthyosaurs adapted to marine conditions in a way that is remarkably similar to that of

Play for change – more biodiversity and less food waste on the gaming table
Can games serve as a method for spreading knowledge and inspiring action? If you ask Karl Sterner Isaksson and Jagdeep Singh, the answer is an obvious yes! They are both currently working on games about biodiversity and food waste, respectively, and they see games as a way to transform complex environmental challenges into something understandable, engaging – and fun!

Understanding the behaviour of light and matter - key to future technologies
If we can understand how and why light and matter behave as they do, we are one step closer to solving some of the most fundamental problems in physics. Finding the answers to these questions drives Ville Maisi, Associate Professor of Solid States Physics, Department of Physics. As long as he can remember he has been interested electric circuits and physics. With the support of a new ERC Consolida

Immunotherapy delays type 1 diabetes diagnosis in people at high risk
Presented on June 9 at the 2019 American Diabetes Association’s 79th Scientific Sessions and published in the New England Journal of Medicine (nejm.org), findings from TrialNet’s Teplizumab (anti-CD3) Prevention Study show a drug that targets the immune system can delay type 1 diabetes a median of 2 years in children and adults at high risk. “This is great news for millions of people worldwide imp

Big data, muffins and space travel
What do muffins and space travel have in common? Answer: They affect our genes through altered DNA methylation patterns. Two researchers who studied this recently met at the public defence of a doctoral thesis at Lund University. Andrew Feinberg from Johns Hopkins University's School of Medicine in Baltimore, USA, has often been called the "father of epigenetics”. When the US Space Agency NASA de
