Every year, the Bo and Kerstin Hjelt Diabetes Foundation awards three diabetes researchers at Lund University Diabetes Centre (LUDC) each a project grant of 47,500 euro. One of the researchers awarded a grant this year studies atherosclerotic plaques in patients with type 2 diabetes. These patients are more likely to develop cardiovascular disease due to plaque rupture compared to people without t

Researchers from Lund University in Sweden have discovered higher levels of immune proteins in the blood before and after an epileptic seizure. The possible biomarkers can be identified using a simple blood test. Diagnosing epilepsy is currently resource intensive, and distinguishing it from other conditions can be challenging. Better diagnostic methods as soon as the patient seeks medical care af

A new contract catalogue is now available to make all purchases easier, and new guidelines have been developed to help streamline our procurement process. The contract catalogue is a resource that makes it easier to find information about what agreements are available and how to use them. The contract information currently in Lupin/Proceedo will be moved into the contract catalogue. You can find a

He has been around for a couple of months now, Jonathan Andrew, Research Fellow at GENEVA ACADEMY OF INTERNATIONAL HUMANITARIAN LAW AND HUMAN RIGHTS, Switzerland. I meet him in his cosy office at Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies, under the rustic roof beams and him in the red sofa. I begin with a. apologising handsomely for not interviewing him until now and b. thanking him for all the var

Albert already had an active carreer when he decided to go back to school to study Culture and Creativity management. Today he is working with a big series of events as a lead producer for the 25th anniversary of the Getty Center in Los Angeles. He looks back at his time in Sweden as a great experience! What did you do before you started studying the Master’s programme in Service Management? "I am

Nicholas Leigh came from the United States to Sweden and Lund University four years ago to study salamanders and how they can regenerate everything from legs, tails and even parts of the heart. In addition to his research, he has also been advocating for more inclusive research environments. It was the ability of moose to grow new antlers after shedding that first sparked Nicholas Leigh’s interest

Researcher and Associate Professor Torsten Krause has spent the last 16 years doing research with a focus on the Colombian and Ecuadorian Amazon region: investigating forest governance, the use of tropical wildlife, traditional ecological knowledges and human and environmental rights. The longer he his active in this region, the more convinced he is of the need for radical and systemic changes to

During the pandemic, reports of cheating rose dramatically – by over 100 per cent. The response to this development saw the launch of the pilot project “Förebygga disciplinära förseelser” (Prevent disciplinary offences) which was intended to strengthen the capacity of learning environments to prevent cheating and produce routines and materials for the work going forward. The reason for the increas

By assigning a barcode to stem cells, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have made it possible to monitor large blood cell populations as well as individual blood cells, and study the changes over time. Among other things, they discovered that stem cells go through different stages where their ability to restore immune cells varies. The new findings provide important information for the rese

Researchers at Lund University have discovered increased levels of a microRNA in type 2 diabetes, which has a negative effect on insulin secretion. Their experiments on human insulin producing cells in the pancreas also demonstrate that it is possible to increase the insulin secretion by reducing the levels of this microRNA. An important goal of the research is to develop new treatments for people

What role does programming play in physics teaching? Can programming be used to teach physical concepts? In his dissertation, Kim Svensson examines how the movement between formula, code and visualisation can contribute to learning in physics. In the future, Kim hopes that programming can be used in a more open way, where students have the opportunity to explore their own models and ideas in a new

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Each year, companies, organizations and authorities spend almost 40 billion Swedish kronor on communication. They assume that communication is decisive for effectiveness, for establishing and retaining the confidence of interested parties and for the development and image of organizations.

Carin Alegre Castegren When entering the lower gallery (KHM1) of Malmö Art Academy to see the MFA exhibition entitled “Tremeluz” by Carin Maria Alegre Castegren, I was met by numerous paintings, which all seemed to be in a state of flux. They had a lightness to them, an openness as well as something allusive. When reading the exhibition text, it was clear that Castegren had been thinking of light
