Biodiversity loss and the climate crisis are closely linked. A warmer climate impacts wildlife, entire ecosystems and people, while biodiversity loss exacerbates the effects of climate change. Innovative research can limit the negative effects of these intertwined crises. Researchers at Lund University are investigating the complex links between biodiversity loss and climate change. They are also
Economic behavior highlights the importance of differences in individual characteristics like cognition and emotional regulation strategy in predicting the selection and performance of economic choices. However, the literature on value premium has overlooked the effect of cognition and emotional regulation strategy in assessing individual preference to select value versus growth stocks. We fill th

Vi studerar blod- och immunsystemet och dess sjukdomar. Ett särskilt fokusområde är hur medfödd genetisk variation påverkar hur blod- och immunceller, och hur sådan variation kan utnyttjas kliniskt. Vilka gener och genmutationer styr t ex risken för blodcancer? Kan vi utnyttja dem för att förebygga och behandla? Vilka styr vår blodgruppsuppsättning? Kan vi utnyttja dem för säkrare transfusion? EttWe study the blood and immune system and its diseases. A particular focus area is how congenital genetic variation affects blood and immune cells, and how such variation can be utilized clinically. Which genes and gene mutations control, for example, the risk of blood cancer? Can we use them to prevent and treat? Who controls our blood group set? Can we use them for safer transfusion?

Systemisk skleros, SSc, är en ovanlig reumatologisk sjukdom där immunologisk aktivering leder till kärlskada och fibros i hud och inre organ. Hälften av patienterna avlider av komplikationer från hjärta eller lungor, ofta fibros i lungor eller pulmonell arteriell hypertension (PAH). Projekten rör kartläggning av tidiga mekanismer kring patogenes och biomarkörer för tidig diagnos och monitorering aSystemic sclerosis, SSc, is a rare rheumatologic disease where immun activation leads to vascular damage and fibrosis in skin and internal organs. Half of the population will die from complications from heart or lungs, mostly lung fibrosis or pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

Sepsis (när en infektion blir livshotande) är en bortglömd folksjukdom som drabbar lika många som cancer och har högre dödlighet än hjärtinfarkt och är mycket dyrt. Sepsis är ett komplext syndrom och borde precis som cancer inte klassas som en sjukdom utan många olika beroende på vilken bakterie som orsakar infektionen, vilket organ infektionen först drabbar och kanske viktigast av allt i vilket iSepsis (when an infection becomes life threatening) is a neglected public health problem affecting as many as cancer, with a higher mortality rate than myocardial infarction and is very expensive. Sepsis is a complex syndrome, akin cancer and should not be classified as a single disease, rather many different depending on 1. the bacteria causing the infection, 2. Organ focus of the infection, and
Att insjukna i en reumatisk ledsjukdom innebär betydande förändringar i livet, särskilt när det sker under barndomen eller ungdomen. Vår forskning omfattar flera reumatiska och inflammatoriska tillstånd, med särskilt fokus på juvenil idiopatisk artrit (JIA), men även andra sjukdomar som Kawasakis sjukdom och MIS-C (hyperinflammation efter COVID-19-infektion). Vi bedriver både klinisk- och laboratoBeing diagnosed with a rheumatic disease entails significant life changes, especially when it occurs during childhood or adolescence. Our research encompasses several rheumatic and inflammatory conditions, with a particular focus on juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), but also other diseases such as Kawasaki's disease and MIS-C (hyperinflammation following COVID-19 infection).

Museum Stobaeanum Explore the collections of Museum Stobaeanum – the first public museum in Lund, established in the early 18th century, with roots in the cabinet of curiosities of Kilian Stobaeus (1690–1742), professor in natural philosophy and history at Lund University. Who was Kilian Stobaeus? He was a physician, a scientist, and a university vice-chancellor. Kilian Stobaeus was the man whose

Flera forskningsprojekt vid vår avdelning är inriktade på att bättre förstå mekanismer som ligger bakom utvecklingen av svåra infektionssjukdomar, fr.a. orsakade av bakterier men också av virus och svampar. Utgångspunkten för arbetet har ofta varit upptäckten av bakteriella ytproteiner och enzymer som på olika sätt interagerar med människans försvarssystem (medfödd och förvärvad immunitet och blodSeveral research projects at our Division are focused on molecular and cellular mechanisms that contribute to the development of severe infections caused preferentially by bacteria, but also by viruses and fungi. The starting point for this work has often been the discovery of bacterial surface proteins and enzymes that interact with human defenses (innate and acquired immunity and blood coagulati
