Where will the chemists and the physicists be located in the future? A recent report shows that it will be much more expensive to move to Science Village than if they stay on Sölvegatan. The evaluation report compares three options: Chemistry and physics establish activities in Science Village and move thereKemicentrum is renovated and expanded, and the physicists move in there to be with the chem

A large amount of lungs donated yearly cannot be used for transplantation. Researchers at Skåne University Hospital and Lund University have conducted an animal study with results that give hope that more donor lungs could be used to save lives in the future. The researchers have started a pilot study to investigate if the treatment will have the same positive effects on human beings. About 190 or

Throughout life, our lungs are vital organs. For newborns as well as for elderly patients, there is a need for safe and continuous lung monitoring in the healthcare. Some of today's common methods of examining the lungs, such as X-rays and computed tomography are limiting since they can not be applied continuously and carry ionizing radiation. A new technology for clinical lung monitoring is now o
