Is it possible to know exactly where to point a microscope in order to capture the precise moment a bacterium or a virus infects a cell? In order to take high resolution microscopic images of living biological material, you need to know exactly where to point the microscope. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now developed a software solution for smart, data-driven microscopy, which mak

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

Diabetes researchers at Lund University have previously shown that people with diabetes can be stratified into five subgroups with differing disease progression. A new study by the same researchers provides increased evidence for the clinical relevance of the classification system. The researchers also present new findings of significant differences between subgroups in the development of complica

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. En dansk forskagrupp vid universitetet i Köpenhamn har i samarbete med kanadensiska kollegor i Québec upptäckt vilken receptor som aktiveras i människans bruna fettceller. Upptäckten kan leda till nya principer för att behandla fetma och typ 2-diabetes. Brunt fett är på flera sätt motsatsen till det vita fettet som
