The international application period is over and we can conclude that once again, LUSEM has some of the most popular master's programmes both within Lund University and nationally. What do the programme managers themselves think about the two most popular programmes, and what do the present and former students say? For many years, our Master's programme in International Marketing & Brand Managemen

First patient receives milestone stem cell-based transplant for Parkinson’s Disease

On 13th of February, a transplant of stem cell-derived nerve cells was administered to a person with Parkinson’s at Skåne University Hospital, Sweden. The product has been developed by Lund University and it is now being tested in patients for the first time. The transplantation product is generated from embryonic stem cells and functions to replace the dopamine nerve cells which are lost in the p

Lost genes make fungi dependent on trees

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A new research study has shed light on the underground interaction between tree roots and fungi. In order to understand how this important symbiosis came about, an international team of researchers have sequenced the genomes of different fungi that live underground. The study shows that in the course of evolution, the

Secondary forests could be a key factor in climate management – if we protect them in time

By analysing over 100,000 field measurements as well as environmental data, an international research team has created maps that show how and when naturally regrowing forests bind most carbon. To fulfil climate goals and avoid the most serious consequences of global heating, we need to both reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and remove carbon dioxide that is already in the atmosphere. Naturally

A new research study has shed light on the underground interaction between tree roots and fungi. In order to understand how this important symbiosis came about, an international team of researchers have sequenced the genomes of different fungi that live underground. The study shows that in the course of evolution, the symbiotic fungi have lost many genes present in their free-living ancestors, and

Drill cores from Mexican crater provide new knowledge about dinosaurs’ extinction

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Sixty-six million years ago, a gigantic celestial body crashed to Earth on the Yucatán peninsula, forming a crater 200 kilometres across. The impact plunged Earth into darkness and killed off the dinosaurs. Now, researchers from Lund University in Sweden, among others, are analysing drill cores from the crater to reco

Ahead of COP30: “The Amazon should be out of question for extractivism; it is too valuable in terms of its biocultural diversity”

Researcher and Associate Professor Torsten Krause has spent the last 16 years doing research with a focus on the Colombian and Ecuadorian Amazon region: investigating forest governance, the use of tropical wildlife, traditional ecological knowledges and human and environmental rights. The longer he his active in this region, the more convinced he is of the need for radical and systemic changes to

Organizational Octopuses: Exploring Multi-Stakeholder Partnerships in South Asia

Marie Stissing Jensen, PhD student at Lund University and SASNET grantee, travels Sri Lanka and Nepal to better understand the ecosystem of Multi-Stakeholder Partnerships. They have been deemed vital for realizing the 2030 Agenda goals, due to their perceived ability to overcome ‘silo-thinking’ between sectors – but how and to what extent do they do this, and what exactly are their activities in t

Current frameworks to assess human-nature relationships are too simplified and risk compromise human dependence on nature

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. We need new ways of understanding and accounting for how people depend on nature to protect and preserve our environment.

Hunting jeopardizes forest carbon storage, yet is overlooked in climate mitigation efforts

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The loss of animals, often due to unregulated or illegal hunting, has consequences for the carbon storage capacity of forests, yet this link is rarely mentioned in high-level climate policy discussions, according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden and the University of Copenhagen in Denmark. Many wildlife s
