This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. It feels almost shameful to admit, but climate change has always felt like something abstract and far away. Of course, I know that climate change is happening. I can explain the greenhouse effect. I even use climate change as an argument for banning meat from my diet, reducing my consumption of animal-based products,

Filipe Pereira and his research team have discovered a recipe on how to reprogram cancer cells into antigen-presenting dendritic cells, essential for initiating and enhancing anti-tumour immunity. This approach provides a promising strategy for cancer treatment. The goal of the now awarded project is to engineer the "vehicle" to deliver the instruction converting the cells, utilizing RNA vectors f

The University has started a new initiative that involves inviting its new staff from far and wide to joint activities during the year. New international staff members and their families were recently welcomed to the new academic year at an event in the Main University Building. Specially invited staff members enjoyed a get-together and refreshments with music by Albin Rickman’s Trio and students

During his research education, Jonathan Timpka wanted to elucidate what is affecting the ability to work for patients diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. Defending his Ph.D. thesis on November 19th, Jonathan tells about his wide range of projects within the Restorative Parkinson Unit led by Per Odin. Tell us about your Ph.D. research! My research engagement has been quite diverse, ranging from reg

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

Earlier this month, Simon Hultmark defended his Ph.D. thesis. In pursuit of his long-standing fascination for stem cells, his research over the last several years has focused on blood stem cells and cancer. All in an effort to contribute to the development of improved clinical therapies for patients with a type of blood cancer known as acute myeloid leukemia. In this interview, he tells us about h

Patients born with heart defects experience their first acute heart attack at a significantly earlier age than others. This is shown by a new national study from Lund University in Sweden. However, despite this earlier onset of illness, there is no difference in survival rates or the risk of further heart attacks between those with congenital heart defects and others. The study includes 214 patien

In this autumn’s second "Dean's corner" Charlotta Turner reflects on the Faculty’s first Inspiration Day for Science Teachers and on the ongoing work to establish a Learning Lab in the Astronomy Building – a testbed for the teaching and learning environments of the future. It’s now been a week since the Faculty hosted its very first Inspiration day for science teachers, and I must say I still smil

How much environmental impact does your hair removal have? With the method LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) it’s possible to find out. Sustainability researchers from Lund, United Kingdom and Italy put the shaving habits to a test when they tried to find answer to which method has the least environmental impact. That is, if you don't consider the option of not removing it at all. Researchers Tullia Jac

When Quick Bites for Researchers launched in spring 2025, it began as an experiment — an attempt to open up a new and informal channel between researchers and the library’s expertise. One year on, librarians Fredrik Larsson and Anja Zimmerman can look back at an initiative that not only survived its first year, but is now ramping up.“We wanted to find a simple, low-threshold way to support researc

Det är sedan tidigare klarlagt att beröring kan utlösa stressreaktioner hos växter. Men de molekylära förklaringsmodellerna har hittills varit spartanska. Men nu har forskare hittat nya genetiska nycklar till varför växter reagerar så kraftfullt på mekanisk stimulering. När du vattnar dina trädgårdsväxter reagerar de direkt på en biokemisk nivå. Och när du låter din knivsegg kapa en rabarberstång

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Ett omfattande internationellt forskningsprojekt har studerat över 125 000 personer i 17 länder för att hitta ett samband mellan stress och fetma. Slutsatsen är: det finns inget. – Resultaten visar att utvecklingen av fetma bör förklaras med andra faktorer än stress, säger Annika Rosengren, forskare vid Sahlgrenska

I en ny studie har en grupp geologer gått till botten med 300 års samlad forskning kring de ikoniska fisködlorna. Med utgångspunkt i ett unikt välbevarat fossil har forskarlaget dessutom skapat den förmodligen mest vetenskapligt korrekta rekonstruktionen av en fisködla som världen hittills skådat. Fisködlor, eller ichtyosaurier, var en mycket framgångsrik djurgrupp som i likhet med dagens valar ha

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. En stor majoritet rapporterar att de i speciella situationer, exempelvis vid stress, nedstämdhet eller trötthet, får ett ökat sug efter godis, choklad eller annat sött. Nu visar österrikiska forskare att en stunds fysisk aktivitet effektivt dämpar det mest desperata sötsug. I undersökningen deltog 47 överviktiga per
