Ten years’ work has paid off – UNESCO has added the unique archive of 500 in-depth interviews with Holocaust survivors to the Memory of the World Register. This means the Ravensbrück Archive is recognised as an example of cultural heritage of great value to humanity. Following the end of the war in spring 1945, Folke Bernadotte's White Buses rolled out of a bombed-out Germany. A total of 20,000 pe

The news last week that Lund University has five profile areas has generated a lot of interest. Since the information at this stage has been rather limited, I will answer the three most common questions here. More information will be published about the profile areas after the summer holidays. Question 1: What will the profile areas do? All five profile areas are based on excellent research, with

The internal combustion engine is a subject that has been described as nasty and outdated. In fact, it is not outdated at all – but an area of cutting-edge research that is an important part of a sustainable energy transition.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

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Fredagkväll i Lund och strax ska Mikael Dolsten, hyllad forskningschef och gästprofessor i farmakologi vid Medicinska fakulteten, berätta den osannolika, men sanna, historien om hur det gick till när hans företag på nio månader tog fram ett av de vaccin som kan frälsa oss från pandemin. Det borde tagit nio år, om de

The Pereira research group has previously shown that it is possible to reprogram human skin cells into dendritic cells that strengthen the immune system. However, the efficiency of these reprogrammed cells has been shown to be very low. New studies now indicate that there are ways to increase the efficiency of these reprogrammed cells by over 75%. These findings provide mechanistic insights into h

For the first time, researchers have linked specific frequent defects in sperm to risk of pregnancy complications and negative impacts on the health of the baby. The study from Lund University in Sweden shows that high proportion of father’s spermatozoa possessing DNA strand breaks is associated with doubled risk of preeclampsia in women who have become pregnant by IVF. It also increases the risk

“Lundensare” Nobel Prize winner Arvid Carlsson (1923-2018) did not receive the prestigious Nobel Prize while living or working in Lund – but he is an alumnus! Carlsson grew up in Lund (which could clearly be heard in his Lund accent) and in 1951 he became a doctor of medicine at Lund University. He was employed as an associate professor of pharmacology and in 1959 he left for Gothenburg, where he

The discovery that free electrons can move asymmetrically provides a deeper understanding of one of the basic processes in physics: the photoelectric effect. It was first described by Albert Einstein and explains how high frequency light releases electrons from a material. The results have been published in Physical R
