Antibodies are the body's superheroes, recognizing and eliminating disease-causing substances. By combining parts from antibodies, researchers at Lund University have designed a hybrid antibody that better stimulates the immune system against both the SARS-CoV-2 virus and streptococcal bacteria.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. If silence is golden, speech is silver – and singing the worst. Singing doesn’t need to be silenced, however, but at the moment the wisest thing is to sing with social distancing in place. The advice comes from aerosol researchers at Lund University in Sweden. They have studied the amount of particles we actually emit

Att det är bra för hälsan att äta mycket grönsaker, fullkorn och baljväxter är välkänt. Mer överraskande är att personer som äter klimatvänligt också uppvisar näringsvärden som är bättre än forskarna hade väntat sig. Det visar en ny studie vid Lunds universitet.
