För två år sedan startade POInT-studien i Sverige som ska undersöka om oralt insulin kan förhindra ett insjuknade i typ 1-diabetes. Nu har forskarna fullt fokus på att samla in och förbereda deltagarnas prover för analys. De första resultaten väntas först om några år. – Det ska bli spännande, säger Carina Törn, docent och laboratoriesamordnare på Lunds universitet. Parallellt med arbetet som labor

Enligt resvaneundersökningen från i höstas är det ett bättre utbud av kollektivtrafik och stöldsäker cykelparkering vid arbetsplatsen som ligger i topp för att de som bilpendlar i dag ska kunna lämna bilen hemma och resa mer miljömässigt hållbart. Den fördjupade rapporten visar också på skillnader i resmönster mellan olika fakulteter. Rapporten har framför allt fokus på pendling till Lund eftersom

Exercise, even in small doses, changes the expression of our innate DNA. New research from Lund University in Sweden has described for the first time what happens on an epigenetic level in fat cells when we undertake physical activity. “Our study shows the positive effects of exercise, because the epigenetic pattern of genes that affect fat storage in the body changes”, says Charlotte Ling, Associ

Most researchers want to do things correctly and much of the time this is straightforward: you do not need instructions in order to understand that you are to write your own text and not plagiarise others. But not all rules and processes are as obvious and some change over time. In interviews with researchers connected to the HR Excellence in Research project, it emerged that many struggle to alwa
