Ultrashort laser pulses - that are shorter than a millionth of a millionth of a second -have transformed fundamental science, engineering and medicine. Despite this, their ultrashort duration has made them elusive and difficult to measure. About ten years ago, researchers from Lund University and Porto University introduced a tool for measuring pulse duration of ultrafast lasers. The same team has

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In a collaborative study, researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center and University College London have developed a novel method of isolating ‘young’ stem cells still present in old mice. They show that activity of mitochondria, the power generators of the cell, is a stronger indicator of stem cell fitness than age and is

Remnants of plastic left by humans can now be found practically everywhere in nature – in waterways, within animals, and even amidst the clouds. In her thesis, Micaela Mafla-Endara examined how nanoplastics that end up in the soil affect the microorganisms living there. The answer is clear: there is an effect on the organisms and how they behave. One could say that Micaela Mafla-Endara and her tea

The most important mineral in today's electric car batteries is lithium. China completely dominates the market, with no extraction taking place in Europe. However, a new study shows that there is great potential for European lithium production, which would bring improvements in competitiveness, the climate and security. The study also points out that there are complex international trade dependenc

Continuous-cover forestry methods are gaining attention as a way to enable forests to deliver a broader range of benefits. The aim is to make forestry more sustainable, but significant challenges remain. These will now be addressed in a new project where five organizations are testing continuous-cover forestry in practice. In Bockeboda, just outside Kristianstad, the future of continuous-cover for

Russia's invasion of Ukraine was clearly illegal. Yet it is unlikely that Vladimir Putin will be held accountable. Most people agree that war is morally wrong. But what is the legal framework? The UN Charter, which in 1945 laid the foundations for the UN's missions, powers, rules of procedure and organisation, prohibits military force between states. However, there are exceptions, such as when the
