Obesity is commonly diagnosed using BMI, but this approach has several limitations. Researchers at Lund University and AstraZeneca show that integrating measurements such as body fat percentage and waist circumference captures disease risks missed by BMI alone.   In recent years, research has shown that there are several limitations with BMI alone when it comes to assessing adiposity quantity, dis

Belysning är viktigt för att skapa tillgänglighet och trygghet för oss människor under dygnets mörka timmar. Samtidigt kan artificiell belysning bland annat störa biologiska dygnsrytmer och försvåra för djur att navigera, vilket leder till negativa effekter på flera artgrupper med konsekvenser även för oss människor. I början av juni arrangerade LU Land frukostseminariet ”Belysning och ljusföroren

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. På senare år har tekniker inom bröstbevarande kirurgi, onkoplastik, utvecklats för att vid behandling av bröstcancer förbättra både det funktionella och estetiska resultatet. Onkoplastik är lika säker som konventionell bröstbevarande kirurgi vid bröstcancer och patienternas hälsorelaterade livskvalitet ökar. Det fra

En forskargrupp vid Lunds universitet har upptäckt en mekanism som hjälper akut myeloisk leukemi-celler att undgå kroppens immunförsvar. Genom att utveckla en antikropp som blockerar mekanismen kunde forskarna återställa immunförsvarets förmåga att döda cancercellerna i laboratorieförsök och i möss. Upptäckten publiceras i Nature Cancer. Studien i korthet:I studien visas hur en nyupptäckt mekanism

When you are cleaning your car with your high-pressure washer have you ever considered how it works? Well we have and to figure that out we need to see how the liquid looks like in 3D. As is seen in the video above we have 3D reconstructed the surface of a cone-like liquid using a technique developed at the division of combustion physics. This technique apply lasers and a single high-speed camera
