Risken att exponeras för viruspartiklar från covid-19 ökar ju närmare en patient man befinner sig, ju mer smitta en patient bär på och om ventilationen är otillräcklig. Mätningar av virus i luften på sjukhus som gjorts av forskare vid Lunds universitet ger ny kunskap om hur man bäst anpassar vården för att minska risken för smittspridning. Förhoppningen är att de internationella riktlinjer som fin

In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the “recipe” for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have now created a library of the 400 factors needed for reprogramming and have begun the work of finding the right combination – the recipe – for each type of immune cell. Our immune system c
