MERGE is a Strategic Research Area working with modelling the regional and global Climate System with focus on the interactions between the climate and the terrestrial biosphere. MERGE brings together more than 150 researchers collaborating across five Swedish universities - Lund University, Chalmers, University of Gothenburg, KTH and SMHI. The cutting-edge research environment are experts on the

Bacterial infections spanning from local wound infections, affecting patients with non-healing leg ulcers, postoperative wounds or burns, to severe infections and sepsis, are significant medical problems. Today's anti-infective treatments do not address the excessive activation of inflammatory pathways during infection and sepsis, and resistance problems are increasing. Hence, there is a huge unm

Sweden's ATMP ecosystem is rapidly expanding, solidifying its place as a key player in Europe. Currently ranking among the top three countries among the EU9 for identified therapeutic ATMP companies, Sweden's strategic investments are further reinforcing its leadership (MSC 2020). This includes ongoing initiatives to establish industrial-scale ATMP manufacturing capabilities, enhancing the country

BioMS is the national infrastructure for biological mass spectrometry (MS). BioMS offers access to qualified projects in proteogenomics, targeted protein quantitation, glycoproteomics, hydrogen-deuterium exchange MS, glycomics, lipidomics, and chemical proteomics. Detailed information and the project application forms can be found at www.bioms.se. BioMS is hosted by Lund University with support fr

In diffusion MRI (dMRI), images are sensitised to water diffusion by the application of magnetic field gradients. Cell membranes hinder the diffusional motion and thereby contribute to the contrast in dMRI. Thus, the diffusion of water molecules is used a probe of tissue microstructure. Data from dMRI is often analysed using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), which yields image biomarkers that reflec

The replacement of fossil fuels by renewable fuels such as biogas and biohydrogen will require efficient and economically competitive process technologies together with new kinds of biomass. A two-stage system for biogas production has several advantages over the widely used one-stage continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). However, it has not yet been widely implemented on a large scale. Biohydro

Network-based biocomputation (NBC) relies on accurate guiding of biological agents through nanofabricated channels produced by lithographic patterning techniques. Here, we report on the large-scale, wafer-level fabrication of optimized microfluidic channel networks (NBC networks) using electron-beam lithography as the central method. To confirm the functionality of these NBC networks, we solve an

The Middle East in the Contemporary World (MECW) is a multi- and transdisciplinary strategic research area, hosted and supported by the Center for Middle Eastern Studies, comprising staff from five different faculties at Lund University.

Gruppens huvudsakliga forskningsområde är systemisk behandling av spridd cancersjukdom med hjälp av terapeutiska radionuklider. För att optimera dosleveransen till tumörceller konjugeras radionukliderna till målsökande molekyler, t.ex. antikroppar, som söker sig till cancerspecifika antigen. Olika behandlingsstrategier utvärderas prekliniskt för bästa effektivitet. Multimodala bildgivande system The main research area of the group is systemic treatment of metastasized cancer using therapeutic radionuclides. To optimize dose delivery to tumor cells, radionuclides are conjugated to tracer molecules, e.g. antibodies or antibody fragments, targeting cancer-specific epitopes. Preclinical evaluation of treatment combinations and strategies aim to improve treatment efficacy. Multimodality imagin
