He is our least known celebrity – a man of power who took the initiative for Lund University and was literally ‘prepared for both’.

New research findings from Lund University, Sweden show that a simple analysis of chromosomal breaks in sperms can help guide choice of fertility treatment and, thereby, increase chances of successful assisted reproduction for involuntary childless couples. Sperm DNA Fragmentation Index (DFI) is a method for analysing semen quality that shows presence of chromosomal breaks in sperms. The method co

Emma Kritzberg took the train to a meeting on Mallorca. A journey that took 54 hours and cost double what it would have to fly a couple of hours to the Mediterranean island. Yet, flying was never an option. She has not flown once for work or privately in the last six years, a conscious decision she took to reduce her carbon footprint. Emma Kritzberg, professor at the Department of Biology, stepped

Lao Saal has a mission; to make it possible to – just by testing a blood sample – reveal, not only if you have cancer, but also which therapies may be most effective, and how well is the cancer actually responding to treatment. His idea is to trace the genetic material that escapes from tumours and into the blood circulation. “It’s a great feeling when you can go the whole way from having an idea

Akut lymfatisk leukemi hos spädbarn är en ovanlig men aggressiv leukemiform. Återfallsrisken är hög och endast runt 30 procent av barnen överlever. Nu har forskare vid Lunds universitet upptäckt att de genetiska förändringarna bakom ett återfall är olika, beroende på om återfallet sker innan eller efter nio månader. Akut lymfatisk leukemi (ALL) hos spädbarn är en ovanlig leukemiform som drabbar ci
