UK politicians’ approach to climate change has shifted dramatically over time from cautious support delivered ‘by stealth’ to a more open approach described as ‘pragmatism’.


Dr Lefteris Danos of @LancUniChem has reviewed the development of photosensitised silicon solar cells, a technology that merges the robustness of silicon with the light-harvesting ability of molecular dyes.


Farmed salmon has become the UK’s most eaten seafood, but new Lancaster University research reveals its popularity has been driven by deliberate strategies from retailers and industry, and has not raised overall fish consumption.


Researchers have found the first direct evidence that tiny particles of air pollution stick to our red blood cells, meaning they can travel freely around the body.


Lancaster University has created a new spinout company, Photarix, to pioneer secure communications in the quantum era. Quantum Key Distribution is a super-secure way to encrypt data that makes eavesdropping impossible.


MARS is a UK Centre for research and teaching in mathematics underpinning applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to real-world systems. Why not join us?


In the first study to investigate the role of solar farms in future biodiversity conservation, researchers from @UK_CEH and @UniofReading, set out to discover if the UK’s existing solar farms could support bumblebees in the face of a changing countryside.


A pioneering new space weather forecasting modelling suite will enable operational modelling of the upper atmosphere at the Met Office for the first time in a breakthrough for UK atmospheric science.


A Lancaster University and @LivUni study has shed light on how emergency services coordinate during live exercises and how that collaboration could be strengthened.


Lancaster University welcomes a landmark new study showing that University Maths Schools are having a transformative impact on the lives of young people across England. Maths Schools boost attainment and progression, and widen participation in mathematics and STEM.


Lancaster University researchers have contributed to the 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission Report on Healthy, Sustainable, and Just Food Systems. The report presents the most comprehensive global scientific evaluation of food systems.


The central north Amazon is at the forefront of rapid growth in climate extremes, despite the extensive areas of high forest cover, natural savannas and vast indigenous territories not previously considered as being the most affected.


Professor of Nanoscience Oleg Kolosov has been awarded the 2025 @PhysicsNews David Tabor Medal and Prize. He received his award for innovations in the field of scanning probe microscopy that have helped to elucidate the physical properties of nanostructures.


Lancaster University has been shortlisted for the Knowledge Exchange/Transfer Initiative of the Year Award in the Times Higher Education Awards 2025.


Hidden in plain sight, dried fish are an overlooked yet vital nutrient-packed superfood helping to feed millions of people across Africa, a new study reveals.


Steve Hodges, Distinguished Professor in Computing and Digital Systems, was awarded one of the Institution of Engineering and Technology's most significant awards – the Mountbatten Medal.


Dr Oliver Bates from Lancaster University and colleagues explore ways in which human-computer interaction (HCI) can help us to break free from the hopelessness brought about by the interrelated crisis of our time.


A new mobile research platform designed by Lancaster University scientists to track how carbon moves through UK farmland will support more sustainable, climate-smart agriculture.


Researchers from Lancaster University have found many currently available breast cancer symptom-management apps do not meet important clinical or user needs.


Over a hundred of the friends, family and colleagues of George Pickett gathered at Lancaster University to unveil a plaque in his memory at IsoLab.
