Targeted missiles that can enter cancer cells and deliver lethal cell toxins without harming surrounding healthy tissue. This has been a long-standing vision in cancer research, but it has proved difficult to accomplish. A research group at Lund University in Sweden has now taken some crucial steps in this direction. “For several years, we tried to elucidate which target proteins on the cancer cel

Överviktskirurgi har i många studier lyfts fram som en näst intill magisk metod för viktnedgång och tillbakagång av typ 2-diabetes. En fråga som i stort sett har lämnats obesvarad är huruvida effekten av kirurgi skiljer sig från de effekter man får av en sträng lågkaloridiet. Detta har nu forskare vid Lunds universitet undersökt i en studie som publicerats i den vetenskapliga tidskriften Diabetes.

What is it that causes something to transform? And what is a transformation, really? Sometimes we speak of tipping points or boiling points—critical states where a small change can cause an entire system, ultimately even the whole planet, to change form. In physics and chemistry, such phase transitions can be observed and predicted, but the larger the context, the harder it becomes—and the more is
