Øystein Opedal, associate senior lecturer at the Department of Biology, has been awarded an ERC Starting Grant. Congratulations, Øystein! Can you tell us a little about your project?“The project aims to better understand how plants adapt to new pollination environments, such as declining pollinator populations or local changes in the diversity of pollinator species. We know quite a lot about how p

Turning scientific knowledge into solutions that improve people’s lives is the ultimate goal of research. But the path from novel scientific data to an innovation that may impact health care is long; many promising ideas never get a fair chance. For 16 years, MultiPark Innovation has supported researchers in their first efforts in transforming discoveries into inventions that may benefit patients

Trots att insulin och hjälpmedel i stort sett är gratis och trots att också vården nästan är gratis. Nu visar en dansk kartläggning att mammans socioekonomiska status fortfarande är en avgörande faktor för hur väl barnens

De flesta forskare vill göra rätt och i många fall är det enkelt: man behöver inte läsa instruktioner för att förstå att man ska skriva sin egen text och inte plagiera andras. Men alla regler och processer är inte så självklara och vissa ändras över tid. I intervjuer med forskare för projektet HR-Excellence in Research har det framkommit att många upplever det svårt att veta vilka regler som gälle

Forskarna förklarar ”fetmaparadoxen” med att de som drabbas av diabetes trots normalvikt är särskilt sårbara individer och att det sannolikt ligger genetiska faktorer bakom.

An increasing number of people want to help bees and other pollinators by growing flowers that are rich in pollen and nectar. But which flowers are the most beneficial? If the point is to aid threatened bee species and biodiversity, then a variety of native plants is the way to go. If you are a farmer, with large areas of insect-pollinated crops, it might be easiest to aim for a few species of flo
