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

Nicholas Leigh came from the United States to Sweden and Lund University four years ago. In his research, he focuses on salamanders and how they can recreate body parts such as legs, tails and even components of the heart. It was the ability of moose to grow new antlers after shedding that first sparked Nicholas Leigh’s interest in regenerative research. For practical reasons, the choice fell on s

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Due to the Corona pandemic, scientists all over the world have begun focusing on every aspect possible of the virus. NanoLund poses no exception. To detect a virus or other infectious agents, medical and clinical laboratories usually employ the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This method, invented 1983, is widely use

When history meets present-day science fascinating things reveal themselves. In such a case, a sample of chain mail from the 15th-century Danish flagship, Gribshunden, was recently analyzed at MAX IV’s NanoMAX beamline. Researchers from Lund University want to know more about the structural and chemical makeup of the metal to give us a window into Sweden’s past, and NanoLundians Jesper Wallentin a

I-PROTECT är ett nytt skadepreventionsprogram för ungdomshandboll i Sverige som utvecklats av forskare vid Lunds universitet i nära samarbete med spelare och tränare. Programmet genomförs inom den ordinarie träningen och kombinerar fysiska och mentala övningar. En studie visar nu att I-PROTECT är minst lika lätt att följa som handbollens etablerade uppvärmningsprogram. Skador inom handbollen är va

  1 How does the working method of an R&D unit differ from how it works at the university? The tasks are more varied and the collaboration between colleagues closer. Of course, the difference also depends on which research environment you come from.  Research is conducted in the same way and there are several internally driven research projects. However, we accept external assignments that require

Academic freedom is a fundamental prerequisite for our activities. It is also an area that engages many employees. We could be better at highlighting ongoing work but also at allowing more scope to discuss and draw attention to issues concerning academic freedom. During the autumn, the Ethics Advisory Board was given a new remit and has been renamed the Council for Ethics and Academic Freedom. Las
