The aggregation of the protein Amyloid-beta (Abeta) into plaques outside the nerve cells has been recognized in patients with Alzheimer’s disease since 1905. But eliminating the plaques has not helped patients so far. Still, Tomas Roos thinks that Abeta matters, but we may need to focus on the aggregates elsewhere. On February 17, he defends his thesis about prion-like proteins in neurodegeneratio

By using cells isolated from cancer patients and mixing them with a new technology called “OssiGel”, it is possible to engineer human mini-bones. These miniaturized organs consist of mature bone and marrow tissue and can be used as model to study the disease mechanisms behind cancers that arise in bone marrow or spread to the bones, and offer the personalized testing of new drugs. Paul Bourgine is

In order to be able to prescribe the appropriate dose of physical activity to patients, healthcare professionals need to consider a range of individual factors. There is a need to facilitate the assessment of aerobic capacity i. e. maximal oxygen uptake capacity (VO2max), as well as to calculate the intensity of training according to the WHO recommendations for physical activity. Now, researchers

The idea behind procurement is to guarantee the right product or service at the right price. But what happens when public procurements are consciously structured to avoid appeals – or are simply discontinued early? Fredrik Tesch-Morawetz’s doctoral thesis in business law examines these issues and has been commended by the Lund University School of Economics and Management as the faculty’s best the
