Tove Fall became a familiar face during the Covid-19 pandemic when she was often seen in Swedish media talking about the spread and progression of the disease in Sweden. She is also an outstanding diabetes researcher who uses large quantities of data to gain a better understanding of the development of diabetes. Tove Fall is now awarded the Leif C. Groop award for outstanding diabetes research for

Researchers have identified 395 genes that are differently expressed in people with type 2 diabetes. One of the genes proved to be very strongly associated with impaired insulin secretion. Now, researchers want to investigate if it is possible to use the genetic CRISPR/Cas9 scissors to correct the gene’s activity. The research team’s scientific paper was published in the Journal of Clinical Invest

A team of researchers led by Daniel E. Coral and Paul W. Franks at LUDC have used human genetics to do a phenome-wide analysis of the degree of genetic dissimilarity between obesity and type 2 diabetes. Together with colleagues from Dundee and Oxford universities in the UK and the Vanderbilt Genetics Institute in the US, the team recently published their findings in the journal Nature Metabolism.

Researchers at Lund University have previously shown that type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes can be divided into five subgroups, and that there are genetic differences between the four subgroups relating to type 2 diabetes. A research collaboration between Sweden and India now highlights similarities and differences between patient groups in India and Europe. The knowledge can be used to improve

Precision medicine aims to deliver the right treatment to the right person at the right time. What does this mean for people with type 2 diabetes? Some of the research at Lund University Diabetes Centre (LUDC) focuses on the progression of type 2 diabetes to help develop more targeted treatments. Epigenetics can become a useful tool when diabetes care is tailored to the individual. People with typ

A common cause of myocardial infarction and stroke is the rupture of atherosclerotic plaques. The exact location of plaque ruptures has previously been unknown, but now researchers at Lund University have mapped this. The research team has also identified an enzyme, a marker, that they hope will help predict who is at risk of having a myocardial infarction or a stroke due to a ruptured atheroscler

Every year, the Bo and Kerstin Hjelt Diabetes Foundation awards three diabetes researchers at Lund University Diabetes Centre (LUDC) each a project grant of 47,500 euro. One of the researchers awarded a grant this year studies atherosclerotic plaques in patients with type 2 diabetes. These patients are more likely to develop cardiovascular disease due to plaque rupture compared to people without t

What is the link between atherosclerosis and gut and mouth bacteria? Researchers behind a large new study have found several new connections. In the long term, this knowledge can benefit people with type 2 diabetes, a group with an increased risk of developing atherosclerosis. In atherosclerosis, fat and calcium have accumulated in the artery walls over time, forming so called atherosclerotic plaq

A new study from Lund University in Sweden raises questions about the efficacy of bariatric operations involving gastric bypass. The results show that the biggest metabolic changes happened directly after surgery. Just a year after the operation, the concentration of metabolites and fats had returned to almost the same levels as before the procedure.  Previous research has shown that the majority

From Spain to Estonia, multiple Erasmus students gathered to prepare a special event at school. This event organized by the international team was held in the Malmö Music Academy cafeteria. The idea came from Sara Engblom, international coordinator at the academy.    I got the idea during a visit to the Netherlands last year. It was at a much larger academy and therefore with many more students, b
