In a study led by Lund University and the Amsterdam University Medical Center, researchers used PET to analyse aggregates of tau pathology in more than 12,000 people from all over the world. The study – the largest ever of its kind – examines the connection between genetic predisposition, gender and age in relation to tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. The study is published in Nature Neuroscie

29th of May, it will be 70 years since one of the world’s tallest mountains, Mount Everest, was climbed for the very first time. An important moment to bring attention to how glacial melt not only threatens the tourism industry in the region, but the livelihoods of over a billion people depending on the Himalayas for water, according to sustainability researcher Mine Islar.

A commercially available blood test has now been trialled in routine healthcare. “The blood test showed about 90% reliability even in primary care. This may have major implications for all those individuals who seek help for memory loss and suspected Alzheimer’s,” say the researchers at Lund University in Sweden behind the study. Alzheimer’s disease affects one in five women and one in ten men ove

An experimental study from Lund University reveals for the first time that different Parkinson’s medications affect brain activity in distinct ways. This could explain why some patients develop impulsive and compulsive behaviors as a result of their treatment. The findings have been published in NPJ Parkinson’s Disease. Upon receiving treatment for their motor symptoms, many patients with Parkinso

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Crashing computers or smartphones - and security loopholes that allow hackers to steal millions of passwords - could be prevented if it were possible to design error-free software. To date, this is a problem that neither engineers nor current supercomputers have been able to solve. A major reason for this is the compu

Certain complications during pregnancy bring an increased risk of heart disease later on. However, there is still much to learn about how arteriosclerosis develops between pregnancy and heart disease later in life. A large new study led by researchers from Lund University in Sweden shows that narrowing and calcification of the blood vessels of the heart are more common in women previously affected
