Thousands of new findings contribute to a global virus map

An extensive study has mapped RNA viruses in a large number of cities around the world. The researchers identified nearly 55,000 different types of virus, the vast majority of which had never been observed before. The virus atlas could be useful in both biological risk assessment and crime scene investigations. Surprisingly little is known about how virus populations are distributed across the pla

Peatlands may exacerbate global warming

According to new research, northern peatlands are likely to play a greater role in future climate change than previously thought. The study shows that large areas of peatland could start emitting carbon dioxide as early as the mid-2000s. To date, peatlands have mainly been regarded as natural environments capable of mitigating climate change, thanks to the fact that peat stores enormous quantities

Vildare skogar – bra för både planeten och människan

Att låta naturen på egen hand sopa igen spår efter mänsklig framfart, så kallad rewilding, har flera fördelar. Ekosystemens motståndskraft blir bättre, den biologiska mångfalden ökar och samspelet mellan natur och samhälle gynnas. Det visar en ny studie från Lunds universitet. Rewilding, eller återförvildande, är en metod som bland annat syftar till att återetablera djur- och växtarter som försvun

Mapping lacustrine algal blooms globally

In May and June 2020, more that 300 dead elephants were found in Botswana´s Okavango Delta. Initially it was suspected that poaching was the reason, but it was later shown that they were poisoned by cyanobacteria. This is an increasing environmental problem, and recent work to create a global dataset on algal blooms shows significant changes in the last twenty years. Toxic algal blooms in water, k

Greyzone Genomics: Assessing the Risks of DNA Technology in Global Power Struggles

As advancements in genetic technology continue to benefit human health, concerns are mounting over their potential misuse in geopolitical conflicts. While discussions on the risks of genetic technology in international affairs have often focused on dramatic scenarios – such as so-called "genetic bioweapons" – a team of interdisciplinary researchers argues that the reality is far more complex: less

Lund Research Into Spinal Cord Injuries Continues to Have Global Impact

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. For a decade now, the Rehabilitation Medicine research group’s work on spinal cord injuries (SCI’s) has had a far-reaching impact. In many areas, this is research at the global cutting edge; not least, in terms of following the same group of individuals as they live – and age – with spinal cord injuries. Research grou
