What can a historic building tell us about the people who once worked within its walls? And how can art help connect past discoveries with present-day research? These are questions that have inspired Stanley Micklavzina and Diane Sandall, a husband-and-wife team from Oregon, USA, who have spent the past months creating a new exhibition for the Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies (Pufendorf IA

New biomarkers can make Alzheimer’s disease easier to detect and diagnoses more accurate, which may be crucial as disease-modifying treatments are available. And the diagnostic toolbox could expand even further, predicts one of MultiPark’s newest research group leaders, who is working on an AI model designed to detect several different conditions linked to dementia from a single blood test. But Mu

Gases used in anaesthesia are potent greenhouse gases, and their total global impact has not previously been known. A study published in The Lancet Planetary Health led by Lund University shows that greenhouse gas emissions from anaesthetic gases have decreased by 27% over the last ten years. By swapping out the anaesthetic gas with the highest climate impact, the climate impact of anaesthetic gas

Studies of fat cells can help increase the knowledge of how weight loss treatments affect individuals with obesity. But fat cells are difficult to study because they are fragile and prone to break easily. Diabetes researcher Karin Stenkula receives a new grant for a project which will use new technique to study how fat cells are affected in connection with weight loss. Diabetes researcher Karin St

When red blood cells break down, they release heme, a component of hemoglobin, that can contribute to inflammation and damage tissues and blood vessels. Researchers at Lund University have now identified a mechanism by which heme activates an inflammatory reaction in the blood. They were also able to block this pathway in experimental models. The findings could have implications for diseases and c

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have conducted a clinical study to show how a woman’s genetic profile provides information on which hormone treatment is most effective for in vitro fertilisation (IVF). The researchers have now developed a simple oral swab test that shows which hormone therapy is the best option for IVF treatment About 15 per cent of all couples of reproductive age are inv

A new PhD thesis by Bernard Ekumah examines why agricultural development in Ghana continues to generate uneven and contradictory outcomes, especially for smallholder farmers. It argues that these outcomes are not primarily the result of isolated failures of policy design or implementation. Rather, they arise from structural contradictions embedded in the internal logic of Ghana’s neo-liberal agrar

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By 2023 the University is to have reduced its CO2 emissions by half, according to the new sustainability plan. Things look promising right now due to Covid-19 – there will be a radical reduction this year as air travel is the biggest CO2 villain. The number of flights booked between April and October 2020 fell by 97 p

Fibersmaken i fullkornsmjöl kan trollas bort med annan malning och mjölbehandling. Det tror forskaren i livsmedelsteknik Jeanette Purhagen som utvecklar nya, hälsosamma livsmedel – som här ger några baktips till fastlagsbullebagaren. – Verkligheten är ju att folk äter vitt bröd och snacks då och då, fastän man vet att det inte är så nyttigt, så då vill vi se om det går att göra dem en smula bättre

Hur mäter vi ett lands utsläpp av koldioxid mest rättvisande? Genom hur mycket utsläpp produktionen ger upphov till inom landets gränser? Eller ska vi ta hänsyn även till utrikeshandeln på olika sätt? Ekonomihistorikern Astrid Kander från Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitet förespråkar att de nuvarande måtten kompletteras med egenutvecklade ”teknikjusterade klimatfotavtrycket” som även mäter ex

Looksmaxing. Gigekonomi. Stress över att vara lyckad i andras ögon. Dagens unga vuxna – generation Z – har en utbredd psykisk ohälsa, men saknar kunskap om hur de ska kunna må bättre. Samtidigt brister vården och stödet för gruppen som är i början av vuxenlivet. Det vill forskare i Lund belysa – och ändra på, med hjälp av en e-hälsoapp. I ett år har forskarna kartlagt den psykiska hälsan hos perso

Laura Elo vid Åbo universitet tilldelas Leif C. Groop-priset för framstående diabetesforskning. Matematikern från Finland har utvecklat metoder som har ökat förståelsen för hur typ 1-diabetes utvecklas på molekylär nivå. Hon hoppas att forskningen kan bidra till att förebygga och fördröja sjukdomsförloppet vid typ 1-diabetes och förbättra behandlingen av sjukdomen. Prismotivering”Laura Elo vid Åbo
