The aggregation of the protein Amyloid-beta (Abeta) into plaques outside the nerve cells has been recognized in patients with Alzheimer’s disease since 1905. But eliminating the plaques has not helped patients so far. Still, Tomas Roos was recently recruited as a postdoc in our lab. He thinks that Abeta matters, but we may need to focus on the aggregates elsewhere. Earlier this spring, he defended

People with type 2 diabetes have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease and dying prematurely due to atherosclerosis. A research team at Lund University in Sweden has now identified molecular mechanisms that may explain the increased risk. Their discovery may lead to more accurate treatments for patients with atherosclerosis and type 2 diabetes in the future. People with type 2 diabete

Despite the pandemic, the mood is good among those working with international students. Richard Stenelo and Louise Corrigan think it is fantastic that so many of them have managed to arrive in Lund. “They have defied obstacles such as closed airports and vacated embassies. The most creative students seem to have made it here – and these are exactly the type of students we want”, they observe. Ther

The next-door neighbour whose home you’ve never been inside. That was how Jason Diakité, also known as hip hop artist Timbuktu, felt about the University while growing up in Lund. Today, he feels differently – having been awarded an honorary doctorate and now taking his seat as one of LU’s external Cultural Council members. Inside the historic Old Bishop’s House, final preparations are underway fo

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The students are not satisfied with the University's system for quality assurance of education. "It does not maintain the high and even quality that we would like", says Ella Sjöbeck, vice president of LUS, the umbrella organisation for Lund University's students' unions. At issue is the national review of the quality

Världens äldsta kompletta jaktvapen i trä är ”bara” 200 000 år, inte 300 000 som forskarna tidigare trott. Det visar en datering som Lunds universitet medverkat i.

Work is slowly starting back up again after a long and much-needed break. Before I turn my attention to what lies ahead, I would like to begin by looking back briefly. At the end of last autumn, I travelled to Chicago, partly to visit my son, who is an exchange student at Illinois Institute of Technology, and partly to visit the University of Chicago to explore potential collaborations.
