Despite 80 percent of Sweden’s population stating they would like to donate their organs after death, fewer than 200 people actually become organ donors each year. Why? This is due to, among other reasons, our limited legislation and organs not being made available beca

These are busy times for atomic physicist Anne L’Huillier. Earlier this year, she received the prestigious Wolf Prize – perhaps not as widely known among the general public, but within the field of physics it is considered second only to the Nobel Prize. Anne L’Huillier was honoured for her contribution to ultrafast laser science and attosecond physics. “I haven’t really taken it all in yet. I hav

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har undersökt samband mellan exponering för PFAS och utveckling av astma. Resultaten visar att bland de barn vars mammor hade mycket hög PFAS-exponering under graviditeten var risken för astma betydligt högre än hos barn vars mammor hade lägre PFAS-exponering. PFAS (per- och polyfluoralkylsubstanser) är en stor grupp av syntetiska ämnen som kan förekomma i många prod

Läkare ska hålla så kallade brytpunktssamtal i livets slutskede med obotligt sjuka patienter. Men många gånger ges inga sådana samtal, visar en ny studie vid Lunds universitet. Ett tidsperspektiv skulle kunna hjälpa läkarna att förstå vad patienterna behöver. – Ett ramverk för samtal utifrån år, månader och dagar skulle underlätta för att låta samtal om livets slutskede vara den process det är.

In just a few years, artificial intelligence has gone from horror film bogie man to a tool integrated into every phone and computer. From spell check to shopping recommendations – and now to allocating tasks at work and measuring performance.

For many people who suffer from depression, the condition is not just about feeling down, but also about a loss of motivation and difficulty finding pleasure in activities they used to enjoy. A study conducted in Sweden at Lund University and Region Skåne shows that a medicine used to treat Parkinson’s disease can be used as an add-on therapy to alleviate these symptoms in some patients with treat

As certain tumor cells are able to conceal themselves in the body, it often means that patients with aggressive cancers experience a recurrence of the cancer after treatment. By programming genetically modified killer immune cells to seek and destroy the hiding tumor cells and tumor stem cells, it is hoped that we can develop more effective treatment options.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. It has been established that not all cancer cells are equally aggressive – most can be neutralised with radiation and chemotherapy. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now discovered that some cancer cells can accumulate fat droplets, which appear to make them more aggressive and increase their ability to sp

Our blood stem cells generate around a thousand billion new blood cells every day. But the blood stem cells’ capacity to produce blood changes as we age. This leads to older people being more susceptible to anaemia, lowered immunity and a greater risk of developing certain kinds of blood cancer. Now for the first time, a research team at Lund University in Sweden has succeeded in rejuvenating bloo

The investigation into the university's future establishment in Science Village has continued during the spring. Based on board decisions made in December last year at LTH and the Faculty of Science, the project group has worked on producing a report on what is required to achieve critical mass in the area – in addition to the already decided establishment of NanoLab Science Village.
