Newly discovered molecular mechanisms show how bacteria manage to survive antibiotic treatment and cause chronic and recurrent infections

By reconstructing past global warming and the carbon cycle on Earth 56 million years ago, researchers have used computer modeling to estimate the potential perspective for future global warming

The diet in many developing countries is lacking zinc, but researchers have just solved the riddle of how to get more zinc into crop seeds

Researchers at the University of Copenhagen have discovered a previously unknown weakness; an "Achilles heel", of bacteria. Their discovery may be the first step in developing an entirely novel form of antibiotics

A biomedical firm that traces its origins to research done at the University of Copenhagen has been acquired by an American drug maker. The sale underscores the role the University plays in the establishment of spin-out firms and in helping society benefit from research.

Saving sunshine for a rainy day is not trivial

New research from the University of Copenhagen and Copenhagen University Hospital shows that low blood vitamin D levels increase mortality. The study included 96,000 Danes and was recently published in the distinguished British Medical Journal.
