Researchers at Lund University have recently sought to shed more light on how normal hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) produce a vast variety of blood cells. Their latest findings, now out in Cell Reports this week, confirm the existence of a transition state as HSCs develop into functional blood cells and provide insights into how certain properties of HSCs are lost as these cells decide their fate

Congratulations, Katarina Steding-Ehrenborg, Docent at Lund University! You’re one of six sports researchers who will take part in a two-year development program in which the Swedish Olympic Committee is now investing. What will the investment mean for you? – The support from the SOC means that we can carry out long-term studies on how strenuous exercise affects the heart and thus help make sports

Polymer nanowires remain conductive after lithography-free manufacturing enabling an excellent path for intracellular bioelectronic manipulation of stem cells and algae. A new study spearheaded by NanoLundians Damien Hughes and Martin Hjort presents a simple, yet efficient way to bring conductive polymers into a nanowire shape suitable to interface with living cells – and even allowing them to get

The Swedish energy agency has warned of an energy deficit and the posibility of rolling blackouts that might follow if we don't flatten the curve of energy consumption. The main reason for the shortage is due to repairs on some of our nuclear power facilites. The Swedish government and Lund University asks us to help save energy in these times, to prevent rolling blackouts. Electricity shortage Th
