Every year Birger Schmitz, Fredrik Terfelt and Ellinor Martin dissolve five to ten tonnes of limestone with highly dangerous chemicals. The aim is to find microscopic grains from fossilised meteorites that are many millions of years old, which can provide important clues to the development of life on Earth.  LUM was given a tour of the world-unique acid laboratory.  There is a smacking sound as Fr

The LERU meetings for deans are a priority for social scientists and lawyers. These meetings have provided social scientists with new ways to approach the EU, and lawyers with doctoral student exchanges with other prestigious LERU universities. So says Ann-Katrin Bäcklund – dean at the Faculty of Social Sciences for more than six years –, and Mia Rönnmar, newly appointed dean of the Faculty of Law

Earlier this fall, the Swedish Cancer Foundation (Cancerfonden) distributed 133 million SEK to 41 cancer researchers at Lund University. Nearly a quarter of this - 28 million SEK - has been awarded to 11 researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center, funding translational research which seeks to advance cancer diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. Isabella Artner, Associate Professor, is among the 11 res

Kajsa Brolin forskar om hur våra gener och vår miljö påverkar risken att utveckla Parkinsons sjukdom. Den 27 mars lägger hon fram sin avhandling som till stor del baseras på MultiParks egen biobank som innehåller prover från över 1000 skånska parkinsonpatienter. Här berättar hon om en nyligen upptäckt genetisk riskfaktor som verkar finnas specifikt i Skåne. Och skyddar verkligen kaffe mot Parkinso

Different species of migrating bird have different genetically programmed procedures that signal when it is time to head off and when it is time to return. It may have to do with factors such as daylight, temperature, weather and the Earth’s magnetic field. These migration programmes have been studied before, but new technology and computational capacity make it possible to process large amounts o

Researchers at Lund University have previously shown that type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes can be divided into five subgroups, and that there are genetic differences between the four subgroups relating to type 2 diabetes. A research collaboration between Sweden and India now highlights similarities and differences between patient groups in India and Europe. The knowledge can be used to improve

During 7-8 of May, 80 researchers within MERGE and BECC met to learn about the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, and how their research can be linked, and contribute, to the implementation of the goals. We are just as far from reaching the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) as Burkina Faso. We just have different challenges.This is one of many terse quotes delivered by Katherine Richardson, pr

Researchers at Lund University and Lund Stem Cell Center have generated human mini bones in the lab which mirror the composition and function of human bone. The results published in Science Translational Medicine detail this step toward the future development of patient-tailored, personalized models of bone cancers and tumors. On average, the adult body consists of 206 bones. Housed in the center

All employees and students at Lund University are welcome to the X Lab with their own projects, course work and ideas. For a long time, Lund University has lacked an open meeting place for staff and students to gather and work on their own projects/course work or share knowledge. In response to this, LTH has built up the X Lab, whose activities are based on collaboration and co-creation. The X Lab

There are delicious smells emanating from the kitchen at the Malmö apartment of nutrition physiologist, Louise Brunkwall. Today, she is making pasta and vegetable sauce for lunch. A clean up before the interview with LUM means she can no longer find anything in the kitchen cupboards: “Usually there is always some kind of organised chaos here!” Louise Brunkwall knew from an early age that she wante
