Kajsa Brolin forskar om hur våra gener och vår miljö påverkar risken att utveckla Parkinsons sjukdom. Den 27 mars lägger hon fram sin avhandling som till stor del baseras på MultiParks egen biobank som innehåller prover från över 1000 skånska parkinsonpatienter. Här berättar hon om en nyligen upptäckt genetisk riskfaktor som verkar finnas specifikt i Skåne. Och skyddar verkligen kaffe mot Parkinso

Last fall, the municipality of Härnösand launched an initiative to more effectively support the older adults with rehabilitation and preventive health interventions. The first phase of part of the initiative, in the form of a “task force” led by Eva Ekvall Hansson, Professor of physiotherapy at Lund University, is now being completed. An assessment and intervention team has been established in the

Juju BentoWhen entering the upper gallery of Malmö Art Academy to see the MFA exhibition entitled “Aero-Light over Dark-Round, in Habitáculo” by Ana Maria Godinho Prates Alves Bento, the room was dimly lit, with lamps cast in concrete. They were shining a light upon several sculptures, which yet again cast their light in different ways into the exhibition space, some by the use of water.      When

The single market of the EU is often hailed as the number one success story of European integration, and it is one of the reasons why the EU is seen as a law-making machine. Single market laws are partly focused on competition law, which sets out to ban state aid and other interventionist practices in order to create a level playing field among the EU’s businesses. But when these businesses enter

In addition to memory problems and other cognitive symptoms, most people with Alzheimer’s disease also suffer from mental health issues. It has long been unclear whether these occur because of tissue changes in the brain, or whether they represent psychological reactions to cognitive symptoms. A study from Lund University in Sweden has provided new insight, and is published in Biological Psychiatr

In collaboration with Lund University Commissioned Education (LUCE) the department of Service studies offers a new international education programme with start later this spring. Focus is on the region around Lake Victoria in east Africa and prefect Mattias Wengelin, responsible for the programme, hope to share knowledge about sustainable services. LUCE contacted Mattias Wengelin in his prefect ro

Mikael Lund is a chemist who doesn’t wear a lab coat. Instead, his research involves computer models of atoms and molecules. Being named a Future Research Leader means both freedom and new challenges. “Using computer models, we can zoom in on molecular details to gain insights that are difficult to achieve with classic experiments”, says Mikael Lund, a theoretical chemist. What does it feel like t

One of the main purposes of Mohammadhassan Safavi’s PhD thesis is to leverage machine learning algorithms to predict where users activities should be done to incur minimum cost. Cost could be energy consumption, service quality degradation, service delay and so on. The thesis also covers many other aspects from reducing energy usage in data centers to how machine learning can be used in 5G mobile

How do birds avoid collision when flying in dense foliage and other cramped environments with many obstacles? And what does flying in such complex environments entail for the birds? These were the questions Per Henningsson of Lund University in Sweden pondered before engaging the help of the family’s own pet budgie to get some answers. His study has now been published in Royal Society Open Science

Variations and changes in the genetic code in our cells are of great significance for many of the most widespread diseases. In recent years, researchers have made important progress in finding new ways to correct the genes that are causing problems. They have developed a technique that enables changes to the genetic sequence in living cells.  “It is possible to cut out the bad genes and paste in n

One of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies, Novo Nordisk, are starting a new stem cell program for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease in close collaboration with Lund University. Over the last ten years, Professor Malin Parmar and her research team at the Biomedical Centre in Lund have conducted successful, clinically relevant, basic and translational research on Parkinson’s disease.

Much of the world's infrastructure is made of concrete, which presents a challenge when it cracks and needs repair. Traditional repair methods involve cutting away a large amount of material. Now researchers at Lund University are investigating an innovative solution: using fungi to mend concrete. This groundbreaking research got off the ground with a Sustainable Idea Exploration grant and support

In recent years, it has become increasingly clear to researchers that the protein galectin-3 is involved in inflammatory diseases in the brain. A study led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden now shows the de facto key role played by the protein in Alzheimer’s disease. When the researchers shut off the gene that produces this protein in mice, the amount of Alzheimer’s plaque and the inflam

The machines have started rolling in at Norunda and are cutting down trees, one by one. Norunda is Sweden’s oldest measuring station for greenhouse gases and it is unique. Following several decades of being surrounded by a hundred-year-old forest, it will instead be surrounded by a clear-cut. - We expect a significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions, says professor Natascha Kljun at CEC.

The logopedics study programme at the Faculty of Medicine celebrated its 50th anniversary this year. Professor Birgitta Sahlén and Programme Director and Associate Professor Kristina Hansson look back to when it all began, talk about the current study programme – and look to the future. The logopedics study programme in Lund was the second one to begin in Sweden, and it is estimated that around 80

On Monday, the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published a new report on how climate change is impacting nature and people worldwide, and on the necessity for adaptation. According to the researchers, more than three billion people live in environments that are particularly vulnerable to climate change, and the same applies to many species. The researchers establish that thos
