A research team at Lund University in Sweden has discovered a certain type of cells – foam cells – in patients with the aggressive brain tumour glioblastoma. It has been shown how these cells accelerate the cancer’s growth and that this can be successfully inhibited using a drug developed for arteriosclerosis. Glioblastoma affects around 500 Swedes every year and is the most common and most aggres

Kriget i Gaza har skapat konflikter på universitet i Sverige och i andra länder. Motsättningarna mellan demonstranter och universitetsledningar och mellan grupper av anställda lär ta tid att överbrygga. Vi har träffat både LU:s rektor och demonstranter från tältlägret i Lundagård. I LUM ger de sin syn på vägen framåt. Vi har också intervjuat Lundaforskare med vitt skilda specialiteter och frågat h

I strokemodeller på möss, har forskare lyckats återställa förlorad hjärnfunktion med hjälp av små molekyler som i framtiden kan utvecklas till strokeläkemedel. ­– Efter stroke förändras kommunikationen mellan nervceller i stora delar av hjärnan och vi visar att den delvis återställs med behandlingen, säger Tadeusz Wieloch, seniorprofessor i neurobiologi vid Lunds universitet. –  Samtidigt återfår
