Metal patterns printed on a III-V semiconductor material can control the appearance and positions of droplets arising on its surface when heated. The result is a significant step forward for controlled device fabrication on a chip. Semiconductor materials are used in electronic devices because of their unique electrical properties. III-V semiconductor materials consist of elements from the third a

Stanley Heinze and Anna Runemark, both researchers at the Department of Biology, have been awarded five-year grants from the European Research Council. Stanley Heinze, a researcher at the Department of Biology, will study insect brains and their neural circuits. His project deals with a specific part of the brain that governs their behaviour, and how it evolved over 450 million years of evolution.

Ten Ukrainian medical students, ten supervisors from the Faculty, for ten weeks. Initiator and professor, David Gisselsson Nord, is happy that the pilot project in medical research is up and going. Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine has led to serious disruptions to Ukraine's medical education system. Some universities have suffered extensive destruction and have had to evacuate their campus

Food researchers at Lund University in Sweden have discovered that consuming small amounts of chromium mixed with certain amino acids before eating is healthy. Why? Well, this mixture diluted in water suppresses the blood sugar spike that occurs when we eat. Now, they are hoping that the drink – which tastes like ordinary mineral water – will be able to compete with soft drinks and flavoured water

Neuroblastom är en tumörsjukdom som främst drabbar små barn. Överlevnaden är den lägsta av alla barncancerformer. Nu har en forskargrupp vid Lunds universitet upptäckt att en specifik gen är kopplad till sämre prognos. Studien publiceras i tidskriften Science Advances. Varje år insjuknar runt tjugo barn i Sverige i tumörsjukdomen neuroblastom. Tumörerna växer i det sympatiska nervsystemet som börj

Newborn babies are already being screened for mutations and genetic tests help families with hereditary breast cancer. Genomic-driven precision medicine (GDPM) is an emerging approach for disease treatment. Around 30 Swedish researchers suggest a direction forward in a review article in Journal of Internal Medicine (JIM). "At the moment newborns are screened for a small number of mutations. In the

The discovery that free electrons can move asymmetrically provides a deeper understanding of one of the basic processes in physics: the photoelectric effect. It was first described by Albert Einstein and explains how high frequency light releases electrons from a material. The results have been published in Physical R

From the Vice-chancellor blog: Free and creative thoughts that can be turned into words or other expressions are the basis of a democratic society. Free and creative thoughts are also the preconditions for renewal. These are my words from a previous blog and after last week’s dark events, when Russia invaded Ukraine, it has become even more important to stress this. We now have an ongoing war in E

Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming an everyday tool in biomedical research, helping scientists analyse data, understand diseases and develop new treatments. However, as AI models become larger and more complex, they also require increasing amounts of energy, data storage and computing power. Researchers using the technology rarely see the environmental impact of this. As part of this year’s

To ensure that everyone has their say and that no one feels attacked when debating loaded and sensitive topics, it is important to establish the ground rules from the outset. This applies to society at large and in the lecture hall.

The Arthritis portal earlier wrote about if there is a link between osteoarthritis and other diseases, for example, cancer. In a new study, researchers investigated if there is a link between hip osteoarthritis and stroke. A stroke is a bleeding or blood clot in the brain. A stroke can cause more or less permanent damage, depending on how damaged the brain gets. There are several risk factors for
