Christina Isaxon has always been interested in how small particles in the air affect our health. As society’s use of nanomaterials increases, research questions about safety are becoming urgent. ‟We need to know more about the conditions in which nanoparticles can affect us and how we can safely handle these materials.” Her research is about understanding how nanoparticles are generated and releas

Collaboration between the worlds of industry and academia promotes the dissemination of knowledge and technology in society. This is why the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research (SSF) is investing SEK 30 million in industrial doctoral students. The grant covers the study period for the doctoral students and must result in a doctoral degree. Doctoral student Jelena Pesic and her supervisor Len

Science should be able to be reproduced, but in reality this is a step that is often overlooked. Researcher Burak Tunca at the School of Economics and Management sees several possible measures that could make research better – and more open. “Researchers should always pre-register their studies and be open with their data. That way we can avoid bias and hypotheses being changed during the course o

A completely new classification of diabetes which also predicts the risk of serious complications and provides treatment suggestions. We are now seeing the first results of ANDIS – a study covering all newly diagnosed diabetics in southern Sweden — published in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology. The major difference from today’s classification is that type 2 diabetes actually consists of several

Several inaccuracies in historical CPIs in popular online databases have been discovered, according to new research by Jonas Ljungberg at Lund University, published in Cliometrica. This can have major consequences for both research and the decisions politicians make regarding economic policy. Jonas Ljungberg needed access to different European countries' consumer price indices (CPIs) for the last

Accordions är bra för att samla ihop och strukturera stora mängder information på ett överskådligt sätt. Men är de riktigt långa kan besökaren behöva lite extra hjälp. När du har skapat långa accordions på din webbplats, kan det vara bra att lägga in en "hela vägen upp"-knapp som gör det lättare för dina besökare att navigera. Detta är också bra om du har flera flikar i en accordion och besökaren

Currently, a lot is known about which genes are responsible for our individual blood groups, however not much is understood about how and why the levels of the blood group molecules differ between one person and another. And this can be important for blood transfusion safety. Now a research group in Lund has developed a toolbox that finds the answer – and in doing so, has solved a 50-year-old myst

Researchers have succeeded in restoring lost brain function in mouse models of stroke using small molecules that in the future could potentially be developed into a stroke therapy. “Communication between nerve cells in large parts of the brain changes after a stroke and we show that it can be partially restored with the treatment", says Tadeusz Wieloch, senior professor at Lund University who led

In a recent interview, we had the chance to catch up with Abigail Altman, an alumnus of the WCMM research school, who embarked on an inspiring initiative, visiting Internationella Engelska Skolan in Staffanstorp to introduce the world of science to 12-13-year-olds. We had the pleasure to interview Abigail and she shared her motivations, experiences, and insights gained from this engaging outreach

The most common analytical method within population genetics is deeply flawed, according to a new study from Lund University. This may have led to incorrect results and misconceptions about ethnicity and genetic relationships. The method has been used in hundreds of thousands of studies, affecting results within medical genetics and even commercial ancestry tests. The study is published in Scienti

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden studied self-grooming rats in order to better understand how the brain chooses what comes next in a sequence of actions. The study shows that when they switch from one action to the next in the grooming chain, the signalling in different parts of the brain changes. The results, published recently in Science Advances, increase understanding of which processe

By presenting cancer research as a battle between good and evil – and himself as a hacker attacking cells to make them kind, PhD student Luís Oliveira took home the win in the Researchers' Grand Prix. His win is the fifth in a row for Lund University and the second in a row for Lund Stem Cell Center - in the competition where researchers from all over the country challenge each other in presentati

A new study by an international group of researchers, including three scientists from the department of Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science, offers critical insights into the immediate impact of meteorological drought on vegetation across Europe. The information can strengthen the information base for planning of water management and drought responsiveness. Droughts are becoming increasingly

– We have a moral responsibility to document loss of cultural heritage, indigenous and local knowledge, declining ecosystems and eroding sense of place, says LUCSUS post-doctoral fellow Guy Jackson. He has co-authored a literature review on non-economic loss and damage which highlights the need for more research on intangible cultural heritage, and how it connects to our physical surroundings, as
