Genom att kombinera kunskapen från kliniskt aktiva läkare och forskare tror vi att vi snabbt och effektivt kan få kunskap om de spektrala egenskaperna hos hudcancer och jättecellartrit och översätta detta till avbildningsverktyg för detektion av tumörgränser och diagnostik. Genom att mäta blodflöde under och efter periorbital rekonstruktiv kirurgi strävar vi efter att uppdatera kirurgiska teknikerBy combining the knowledge of clinically active medical doctors and researchers we believe that we can rapidly and effectively gain knowledge on the spectral properties of skin cancer and giant cell arthritis and translate this into imaging tools for tumor border outlining and diagnosis. Through monitoring of blood flow perfusion during and following periorbital reconstructive surgery we aim to up

Avdelningen för molekylär hematologi omfattar idag tolv forskningsgrupper som alla studerar olika aspekter av blodcellers funktion vid hälsa och sjukdom. Genom hela livet utgår all blodbildning från så kallade blodstamceller som försörjer kroppen med miljarder blodkroppar varje dag. En normal balanserad produktion av blodkroppar via blodstamcellerna är avgörande för att vi skall hålla oss friska.Dysfunctional blood cell development can have fatal consequences on human health, with implications for several key areas of modern medicine, including amongst others the broad research areas of oncology and immunology. The Division of Molecular Hematology (DMH) aims to generate new knowledge about the regulation of blood cell development by applying recent advances in stem cell technology, in ord

Institutet för Ekonomisk forskning är det för ekonomiämnena gemensamma forskningsinstitutet och del av Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitet.

Vår enhet bedriver forskning inom beroende av alkohol, narkotika, läkemedel, och inom spelberoende och andra icke-substansberoenden. Vår forskning har också ett uttalat fokus på samsjuklighet och andra problem med nära koppling till beroende, inkusive psykiatriska sjukdomar, kroppsliga sjukdomar, sociala problem och kriminalitet. Forskningen är dels klinisk och dels befolkningsbaserad, och bedrivsOur unit conducts research related to alcohol, drug and prescription drug disorders, and gambling disorder and other non-substance-related addictive conditions. Also, a major focus of our research is the co-morbidity and other related problems, including psychiatric disorders, physical disorders, social complications and criminal behavior. Our research is clinical and epidemiological, and projects

Translationell cancerforskning bildades 2013 som en del av Lunds universitets cancercenter (LUCC) på Medicon Village. TCR består av nio grupper som arbetar med olika frågeställningar och tumörtyper, men med ett gemensamt mål att utveckla nya behandlingsmetoder. Frågeställningarna bearbetas multidisciplinärt med hjälp av cellbiologi, bioinformatik, musmodeller, humana vävnadsarrayer och avancerade The Division of Translational Cancer Research (TCR) was founded 2013 in conjunction with the formation of Lund University Cancer Center (LUCC) at Medicon Village. TCR consists of nine research groups with different areas of expertise, but together working on projects with the common goal of improving cancer diagnostics and cancer therapy. Our multidisciplinary experimental settings include human g

Enheten för psykosocial suicidforskning studerar suicidalitet utifrån ett integrerat samhälleligt, psykologiskt och epidemiologiskt perspektiv. Forskningen syftar till att fördjupa förståelsen av de komplexa och föränderliga processer som leder till och påverkar suicidalt beteende, genom att analysera samspelet mellan individuella livsvillkor, sociala relationer och strukturella faktorer. Vi kombiThe Unit for Psychosocial Suicide Research investigates suicidality through an integrated sociological, psychological, and epidemiological lens. Our research aims to advance theoretical and empirical understanding of the complex and dynamic processes that give rise to and shape suicidal behaviour, by analysing the interplay between individual life circumstances, social relationships, and structura

This paper explores different aspects of maritime environmental legislation with the goal of identifying the influencing factors associated with achieving compliance with international maritime environmental legislation. International shipping is often considered the most environmentally friendly form of transport, and while this is true, it is still a significant contributor to global warming an

Enzymes play a key role in almost all biological processes, accelerating a variety of metabolic reactions as well as controlling energy transduction, the transcription, and translation of genetic information, and signaling. They possess the remarkable capacity to accelerate reactions by many orders of magnitude compared to their uncatalyzed counterparts, making feasible crucial processes that woul

The study of clines, or geographical variations of a given trait, can help understand how the interactions of genetics and local environments determine phenotypic diversity. The marine snail Littorina saxatilis (Olivi, 1792) exhibits a gradual change in the relative frequencies of shell color morphs across populations in the estuary system of the Rias Baixas (Galicia, NW Iberian Peninsula). A cons

During my thirty years in the academic field I have always been interested in biographical studies. The focus has been on significant experiences in the individual’s life, so-called turning points, peak experiences or other decisive and unforgettable moments. Was there a crisis of some kind? And, if this is the case,how did the person in question cope with this low point in his or her life? I lear

In adipocytes, protein kinase B (PKB) has been suggested to be the enzyme that phosphorylates phosphodiesterase 3B (PDE3B), a key enzyme in insulin's antilipolytic signalling pathway. In order to screen for PKB phosphatases, adipocyte homogenates were fractionated using ion-exchange chromatography and analysed for PKB phosphatase activities. PKB phosphatase activity eluted as one main peak, which

OBJECTIVE AND STUDY DESIGN: We report for the first time an inhibitory effect on cell division and germ tube formation by Candida albicans and strains of other Candida species by putrescine and cadaverine. RESULTS: Both bacterial amines showed a dose-dependent inhibition of germ tube formation by C albicans, as well as budding (inhibition of cell division) of strains of other Candida species (ie,
