Det finns en liten cyklop bland dina äldsta förfäder. Det visar ny forskning om ögats evolution. Vi människor delar dessa uppseendeväckande släktrötter med alla andra ryggradsdjur. Forskare vid Lunds universitet har i en ny studie kommit fram till att alla ryggradsdjur har utvecklats via en avlägsen förfader som hade ett enda öga, placerat högst upp på huvudet. Forskningsstudien visar också att re

I jorden under våra fötter pågår ett myllrande liv, avgörande för både mat och klimat. Ändå tar vi ofta detta dolda ekosystem för givet. Med ny teknik, forskning och kultur öppnar markekologen Edith Hammer och hennes kollegor, tillsammans med konstnärsduon (p)Art of the Biomass, ett helt nytt fönster till underjorden och en värld få av oss har sett. –Vissa hyser till och med negativa känslor till

När fiskar från olika miljöer möts är det inte alltid romantik i vattnet. Ny forskning från Lunds universitet visar att aggressiva honor aktivt kan stoppa hanar från ”fel” miljö – ett beteende som i förlängningen kan bidra till att nya arter uppstår. Att förstå hur arter bildas är en av biologins mest grundläggande frågor. I en ny studie har forskare undersökt olika populationer av den säregna mos

Var har brottsmisstänkta befunnit sig innan brottet begicks? Var tillverkades en bomb eller ett parti narkotika? En ny teknik som spårar fragment av miljö-DNA kan ge ledtrådar till svaren. Genetikern Eran Elhaik vid Lunds universitet har utvecklat ett AI-baserat verktyg som kan bidra till kriminaltekniska utredningar. Tekniken bygger på att använda miljö-DNA.– Användningen av miljö-DNA öppnar en n

En liten insekt som lever på snö äger en oväntad superkraft: den kan producera egen värme för att klara minusgrader. Upptäckten ger ny förståelse för hur liv kan fungera i extrema miljöer. Snöflugan, en märklig harkrank som är aktiv mitt i vintern, rör sig på snön i temperaturer mellan cirka 0 och -7 grader. För de flesta insekter innebär sådana temperaturer en säker död. Men snöflugan har utveckl
