Andreas Bruzelius, a Ph.D. student at Lund University, defended his PhD thesis on Friday, 20 October 2023. Andreas' research focuses on generating brain cells, specifically interneurons, in the lab, which has significant implications for the study of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric disorders. Combining cell biology and electrophysiology, his work has the potential to create personalized dis

Two researchers at Lund Stem Cell Center receive grants, 61 million, for research into immunological long-term memory and reprogramming of tumor cells. The research should lead to more effective vaccination strategies and immunotherapies. The Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation has granted SEK 835 million to 30 different projects in medicine, natural science and technology that are deemed to have

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Fifty per cent of all pregnant women in need of a C-section are unable to get one. Most people around the world still do not have access to safe surgery, resulting in millions of deaths and disabilities each year. As a paediatric surgeon, Lars Hagander wanted to find ways to help, and has travelled the world to perfor

Trots stor och bestående viktnedgång minskar inte den psykiska ohälsan bland unga som gjort kirurgiska ingrepp mot övervikt. Däremot ökar fetmaoperationer risken för tidiga alkoholproblem. Det visar världens största långtidsstudie som gjorts bland unga som genomgått viktkirurgi. Studien är gjord vid bland annat Lunds universitet och Karolinska Institutet. Forskarna har studerat psykisk ohälsa – fö

Europeiska forskningsrådet (ERC) är en viktig forskningsfinansiär i Europa som finansierar forskare med projekt som har potential att vara banbrytande inom alla vetenskapsområden. Som huvudansvarig för ett projekt har professor Martin Englund vid Lunds universitet haft förmånen att få sådan finansiering för en 5-årsperiod för ett projekt inom området artros.

New research from Lund University shows that insufficient infrastructure was key in American car manufacturers choosing gasoline cars over electric cars in the early 20th century. If electricity grids had spread just 15 or 20 years earlier, a majority of producers would have likely opted for electric cars, according to the study published in Nature Energy. A broad political commitment to a univers

The internal combustion engine is a subject that has been described as nasty and outdated. In fact, it is not outdated at all – but an area of cutting-edge research that is an important part of a sustainable energy transition. Martin Tunér is a professor of Internal Combustion Engines at the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) and he explains that a functioning and egalitarian society needs transport, so

If you look carefully at Niclas Nilsson’s hands and arms, you can still see the scars from all the injections he has received through the years for his haemophilia, although they have faded considerably since January 2020. That was when he got his last injection. Indeed, since his treatment with gene therapy, Niclas has not needed a single injection. Niclas Nilsson comes from a family of haemophil

Det är nu några år sedan de första teoretiska artiklarna kom om ”programmatic assessment”. Bakomliggande resonemang är att de studenter som kommer till våra utbildningar sannolikt har förmågan att klara utbildningen och vi borde lägga mer tid på att se till att varje individ utmanas på den nivå man är, för att ständigt säkra utveckling.

Supraledare är material som kan leda elektricitet utan motstånd och används bland annat i elektromagneter, antenner och kraftledningar. Nu har forskare studerat en mångfacetterad supraledare som uppvisar ett så kallat virvelgitter när den utsätts för ett magnetfält. Upptäckten kan komma att revolutionera den tekniska utvecklingen. Smarta supraledare spås kunna förändra vår vardag i grunden. Datore
