They want to inspire and strengthen connections between communicators at the Faculty of Science and LTH

For more than a year, communicators at the Faculty of Science and LTH have been meeting regularly. The focus has been on professional development, with lectures on topics ranging from crisis management to IT security. The initiative started when Cecilia Schubert, communicator at the Faculty of Science, and Hanna Nilvall, head of the Communication and Collaboration Unit at LTH, identified a need to

Dean’s Corner with Charlotta Turner: ‘We finally have a common place for the natural sciences!’

We have a new name for the Astronomy Building – Universum! To me, it expresses that this will be a place where everyone in the faculty can gather, where disciplines meet, and where we feel at home, while also honouring what has always been here: astronomy.I am deeply relieved and glad we reached consensus on the name, especially as it emerged several times among the suggestions in our naming compe

New bioink brings 3D-printing of human organs closer to reality

Researchers at Lund University have designed a new bioink which allows small human-sized airways to be 3D-bioprinted with the help of patient cells for the first time. The 3D-printed constructs are biocompatible and support new blood vessel growth into the transplanted material. This is an important first step towards 3D-printing organs. The new study has been published in Advanced Materials. Chro

New insights into toxic protein aggregate formation in Parkinson’s disease - size matters

In a collaborative study with other European research groups, scientists from Lund University in Sweden have shed new light on how the protein aggregates that accumulate in the Parkinsonian brain may contribute to neuronal injury during disease progression. The study is published in Cell Reports. The brain is a complex organ composed of billions of neurons, whose proper function is dependent on a

Researchers reveal keys to the molecular machinery governing immune cell production

In a recent study, researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center uncover developmental differences in the molecular machinery of the cells that maintain the blood system. These findings provide new insights into how the blood system develops throughout life and identify mechanisms that, if disrupted, may lead to malignancies. The study is published in Cell Reports. The body makes several million blood ce

What makes the human brain different to the brain of chimpanzee?

Johan Jakobsson and his team tries to understand how the human brain is so different in complexity and size to the brains of other great apes, even though our coding genome is almost identical. In an attempt to answer that, they used induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to generate neural progenitors from both humans and chimpanzees, which is our closest living relative in evolutionary terms.
