An international research team led from Lund University, has identified epigenetic biomarkers that can predict which people with type 2 diabetes are at risk of cardiovascular disease. The study is now published in Cell Reports Medicine. People with type 2 diabetes are up to four times more likely to have heart attacks, strokes, anginas and other coronary heart diseases than healthy people. Therefo

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Professor Stina Oredsson and the owner of the women’s underwear store Kvinnligt under, Carolina Le Prince, have together created a calendar of partially nude women. This unusual way to raise money for cancer research resulted in SEK 235,000. Stina Oredsson (right) receives the collected money from Carolina Le Prince (

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. 82 years after his death, limnology superstar and the first professor in this field in Lund and the world, Einar Naumann, may have helped solve the riddle of why lakes become brown. With the help of Naumann’s and his students’ work dating back to the 1930s, senior lecturer Emma Kritzberg has created a data series that

Researchers at Lund University, together with colleagues at the NIST Synchrotron Facility in the USA, have mapped on an atomic level what happens in a virus particle when the temperature is raised. "When the temperature rises, the virus's genetic material changes its form and density, becoming more fluid-like, which leads to its rapid injection into the cell," says Alex Evilevitch who led the stud

Cancer cells are the ultimate sugar addicts, gobbling up glucose to fuel their growth and spread. What if we could starve them of their favorite food? A recent study in Blood Advances by Lund University researchers describes a new method to combat leukemia by disrupting the energy-making machinery of cancer cells, cutting off their dual energy supply. Despite advancements in treatment, acute myelo

Around 100 select astronomy books dating from 1545 to 1799 have been relocated from the Astronomy Library to the University Library. LUM was there as the books were packed away, and again, several months later, after they had been quarantined and it was time to catalogue, encapsulate and put them in storage. Next year, the rarest volumes will be digitalised and perhaps even be displayed. Outside A

A major benefit of being part of BECC is the possibility for researchers to apply for project funding. Recently, 14 new projects that will contribute to delivering world leading research on biodiversity and ecosystem services under global change were granted funding. At the end of 2022, 14 new research projects were funded by BECC. Most of them are interdisciplinary and collaborations between Lund

By invading Ukraine, Russia is not only violating international law - it is also preventing people in Ukraine from enjoying the most basic human rights, such as the right to health care, medicine and education. Lena Halldenius and Jessica Almqvist, both professors of human rights and coordinators of Lund University's new profile area Human Rights in a Polarised World, answer four questions about h

Skatt på förmögenhet eller på kött? Basinkomt eller inkomstak? Hur långt är vi beredda att gå för att leva socialt och ekologiskt hållbart och skruva ner på takten i konsumtionssamhället? Inte särskilt långt visar en studie av forskare i socialt arbete vid Lunds universitet. Max Koch är professor i socialt arbete och forskar om hållbar välfärd och ekonomisk nerväxt, på engelska degrowth. Han, med

En katalysator som kommer att modernisera naturvetenskapliga fakulteten, både i Brunnshög och på Sölvegatan. Dekan Sven Lidin må ha blivit ”närsynt, lönnfet och medelålders” under sina tio år i symbios med Science Village. Men hans framtidsvisioner är vitalare än någonsin. Det är en sådan där blek septemberförmiddag då de digitala mötena avlöser varandra. Men några minuter över 11 kommer naturvete

20 år av mätningar är bara början. Långtidsmätningar som sträcker sig över flera årtionden är helt avgörande för att kunna förutse hur luftburna partiklar påverkar framtidens klimat menar lundaforskaren Erik Ahlberg. – Långtidsmätningar är viktiga för att få ett kvitto på att olika insatser för klimatet faktiskt fungerar. Säg att vi skulle stänga alla kolkraftverk idag – då kan vi om tio år ta red

Lymfödem efter huvud- och halscancer, är betydligt vanligare än man tidigare antagit och kan kvarstå länge efter avslutad cancerbehandling. Forskare vid Lunds universitet, har upptäckt att patienter med lägre fysisk aktivitet löper en högre risk att utveckla lymfödem. De har även sett att en lymfscanner objektivt mäter förändringar i tillståndet - en metod som nu har börjat användas i Södra sjukvå

A lot of research explains which diets may reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Much research remains to be done about how our genes respond to the foods we eat. A new study led by researchers at Lund University adds to evidence that variations in the AMY1 gene may affect the way the body breaks down starchy foods. Unhealthy food habits are risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes. An

Forskare vid Lunds universitet och DTU i Köpenhamn har upptäckt enzymer i tjocktarmen som, när de blandas med röda blodkroppar, kan klippa bort delar av de kolhydrater som skiljer våra ABO-blodgrupper från varandra. Metoden tar oss närmare drömmen om ett universalblod för alla. Sedan länge är det känt att blod från olika individer inte kan blandas hur som helst utan risk för allvarliga konsekvense

Renewable and affordable energy is key for societal and economic growth, and for achieving national and global climate goals. Research from LUCSUS is mapping the energy transition in Nepal and has identified how increasing energy access is closely linked to a new political awakening in the country.  "Nepal is a very interesting case study since it has been held up as a case for how a country can t

I oktober 2021 publicerade vi en intervju om arbetet med att ta fram en systematisk Cochraneöversikt om insatser på arbetsplatser för att minska smittspridning av covid-19. Nu är den systematiska översikten klar och publicerad, resultatet överraskade forskarna. Det publiceras miljoner vetenskapliga artiklar varje år, och under pandemin kom det många tusentals som handlade om covid-19. Det är ingen
