Årets omvärldsbevakning är klar. Den är en strukturerad studie av de omgivande faktorer som på olika sätt bedöms kunna påverka universitetets uppdrag och verksamhet. Omvärldsbevakningen fokuserar framför allt på händelser som nyligen inträffat eller förväntas inträffa. Med framtagandet finns en önskan och strävan efter att uppmärksamma, bedöma samt bemöta framtida utmaningar, risker och möjlighete

The environment in which breast cancer arises –the interplay between the patient’s BMI, tumour size and cancer-specific proteins –is of importance for the prognosis. This is shown in a study from Lund University in Sweden. The knowledge could further enhance precision medicine in breast cancer. Major advances in diagnostics and treatment have improved survival rates among breast cancer patients in

Should climate researchers let their findings speak for themselves, or does the state of the planet mean that it is a duty to take to the barricades? How can science get its message across in the best way and does climate activism by researchers impact their credibility? These questions were the focus of Debatt i Lund this May. The panel consisted of sustainability researcher Kimberly Nicholas, so

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Dagens insuliner arbetar oavsett om det behövs eller inte. De är blinda för blodsockerhalten och sänker den även om den är för låg. Därför svajar blodsockret, därför är insulindoseringen så svår.

En forskargrupp vid Lunds universitet har lyckats skapa ett vätgasproducerande system med ett järnkomplex som ljusabsorberande färgämne. Den nya upptäckten kan bli en viktig pusselbit för storskalig och miljövänlig vätgasproduktion i framtiden. Vätgas är en mycket effektiv energibärare som kan användas för att transportera, lagra och tillhandahålla energi. Gasen, som består av två väteatomer, kan

Vildbin som får i sig växtskyddsmedlet klotianidin när de äter nektar från behandlad raps blir slöare. Dessutom blir jordgubbar som pollinerats av sådana bin mindre. Det visar en ny studie från Lunds universitet. Bin och andra insekter är viktiga pollinerare av frukt- och bärblommor, inte minst av jordgubbar som blir större om de surrande smådjuren varit framme.
