Organic farms had doubled plant diversity – but only over time

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

Successful experiment paves the way for new element

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

Can we limit global warming to 1.5 °C?

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. 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 a

New study: Can a gluten-reduced diet in the first years of life prevent celiac disease?

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Can a reduced intake of gluten during childhood affect the development of coeliac disease (gluten intolerance)? Researchers at Lund University will investigate this question in the new study GRAIN (Gluten Reduction After INfancy and the risk of celiac disease). – We’ve seen in previous studies that the amount of glute

Nature-based solutions have great potential in the Nordic countries

Implementing nature-based solutions requires better management and funding with clear political priorities. This is the conclusion of a new study by the Nordic Council of Ministers, in which researchers from Lund University participated. Nature-based solutions to climate change and the loss of biodiversity are increasingly highlighted, most recently during the UN Climate Change Conference (COP27)

“It’s no harder for researchers to combine career and family”

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. “Yes, academic life is uncertain and competitive. However, that’s the case even for those who don’t have families. I don’t think it’s any harder to have children if you are a researcher than in any other line of work.” Olga Göransson is also a member in the network WINGS (Women in Great Sciences). So says Olga Göranss

When “Challenges” become “Missions” – what will be LU’s share of the pie?

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. 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 off
