Unhealthful lifestyles underpin much of the burden of cardiometabolic disease affecting contemporary societies. Our overarching objective is to discover and optimise measurable biomarkers that can be used to stratify patient populations into subgroups that can be treated more effectively with targeted lifestyle therapies, at lesser cost and with fewer adverse events than conventional approaches
The Sound Environment Centre at Lund University was established in March 2005. The centre is the first of its kind, both nationally and internationally. It is tasked with studying sound as a phenomenon, sound worlds and sound environments from a multi- and interdisciplinary perspective. It is a Lund University-wide body for education and research as well as external engagement in general for matte
Environmental psychology conducts research, teaching and collaborations focused on the interaction between people and the environment from the perspective of the individual. The subject deals with how people experience their surroundings and are affected by them, as well as how humans affect the environment through their behaviour. The research encompasses the relationship to both the physical a
Övergripande målet för vår forskning är att undersöka hur miljöfaktorer associerade med utveckling av typ 2-diabetes (T2D) påverkar frisättning av insulin och glukagon från bukspottkörtelns Langerhanska öar. Insulin och glukagon reglerar reciprokt blodets glukosnivåer. Insulin minskar blodglukoskoncentrationer efter måltid, glukagon medverkar till ökade nivåer av glukos vid fasta och ansträngn. ViThe overall objective of our research is to investigate how Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) associated environmental factors effects the islet hormone secretion with a specific focus on how impaired exocytosis is involved in the etiology of the disease. We investigate from a cell physiological perspective the regulation of insulin and glucagon secretion from the pancreatic beta – and alpha cells, respective
We are striving towards the identification of disease-modifying mechanisms that protect endogenous insulin release and diabetes development. Ion channels play overarching roles as sensors of cellular activity and control long-term adaptation of the endocrine pancreatic islet to the environmental demands. Our goals concern signals involved in cellular responses to beta-cell overload: 1)Role of vol
We study the adjoint of the double layer potential associated with the Laplacian (the adjoint of the Neumann-Poincaré operator), as a map on the boundary surface Γ of a domain in R3 with conical points. The spectrum of this operator directly reflects the well-posedness of related transmission problems across Γ. In particular, if the domain is understood as an inclusion with complex permittivity ε,
En stor del av diabetesforskningen vid Lunds universitet görs inom forskningsmiljön EXODIAB som är ett strategiskt forskningsområde (SFO) i Sverige. Inom EXODIAB har Lunds universitets diabetescentrum (LUDC) och Uppsala universitet ett nära samarbete.A significant part of diabetes research at Lund University is conducted within EXODIAB, which is a strategic research area (SRA) in Sweden. Within EXODIAB, Lund University Diabetes Centre (LUDC) and Uppsala University work closely together.
Humanistiska och teologiska fakulteterna bedriver en bred och varierad verksamhet inom forskning och utbildning som i vid mening syftar till att förstå människan som kulturell och samhällelig varelse. Vi forskar och utbildar inom områden som behandlar kulturmöten, språk, historia, etik, religion, filosofi, konst, musik, litteratur och annat som formar och definierar kulturerna.The Joint Faculties of Humanities and Theology provide research and education in a broad range of subjects, ranging from cultural sciences, history, philosophy, archaeology, languages and literature to theology and religious studies.
In 2018, the Irish public voted to repeal the Eighth Amendment to the Irish Constitution, which since 1983 banned abortion in the country. While this was a watershed moment in Irish history, it was not unconnected to wider discussions now taking place around the world concerning gender, reproductive rights, the future of religion, Church–State relationships, democracy and social movements. With th
Institutionen för arkeologi och antikens historia bedriver forskning och utbildning inom fyra ämnen – antikens kultur och samhällsliv, arkeologi, historisk arkeologi och historisk osteologi. Institutionen har funnits i olika former vid Lunds universitet sedan 1805 men fick sin nuvarande sammansättning 2001. Sedan 2016 rymmer institutionen även Laboratoriet för digital arkeologi (DARKLab), en infraThe Department of Archaeology and Ancient History conducts research and education in four subjects – Classical Archaeology and Ancient History, Archaeology, Historical Archaeology and Historical Osteology. The department has existed in various forms at Lund University since 1805 but was given its current composition in 2001. Since 2016, the department also houses the Laboratory for Digital Archaeo
