Santa’s home would logically be located in the small town of Jokkmokk in northern Sweden, according to researchers at Lund University in Sweden, who have used satellite images of the Earth to calculate the mean centre of the global population. WATCH VIDEO STORYThe results contradict the idea that Santa’s hometown is in Rovaniemi, Finland. In fact, the same calculation using images from 1992 – the

Over millions of years retroviruses have been incorporated into our human DNA, where they today make up almost 10 per cent of the total genome. A research group at Lund University in Sweden has now discovered a mechanism through which these retroviruses may have an impact on gene expression. This means that they may have played a significant role in the development of the human brain as well as in

A celestial body with a diameter of five kilometres crashed into the Earth’s surface, causing the formation of the so-called Siljan Ring in Dalarna, Sweden. The original impact crater was approximately 60 kilometres in diameter and the bedrock was covered by a layer of sediments 2.5 km thick when the projectile struck, according to a doctoral thesis from Lund University in Sweden.

Children aged 9 are several times more sensitive to disruptive advertising than adults. This is shown by studies conducted at Lund University in Sweden, in which children’s eye movements were measured. Together with the Lund University Humanities Lab, media and communications researcher Nils Holmberg has developed a combination of methods for measuring how much children’s concentration is disrupte

Today, a stroke usually leads to permanent disability – but in the future, the stroke-injured brain could be reparable by replacing dead cells with new, healthy neurons, using transplantation. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have taken a step in that direction by showing that some neurons transplanted into the brains of stroke-injured rats were incorporated and responded correctly when th

Researchers have discovered minerals from 43 meteorites that landed on Earth 470 million years ago. More than half of the mineral grains are from meteorites completely unknown or very rare in today’s meteorite flow.
