From the vice-chancellor blog: Intensive work is being carried out on how we can open doors for Ukraine at the EU and national levels and at Lund University. Here, we are looking at all possibilities to enable us to take in students, academics and researchers who need to leave their country or will need to study or conduct research in their homeland in the future. We are working according to short

Blood clots can form in both arteries and veins. However, the reasons behind them differ, as do the consequences and the chances of preventing blood clots. In Sweden, almost half of all cases of venous thrombosis have a genetic explanation. A team of researchers from Lund University in Sweden has now discovered three gene variants that increase the risk of blood clots in the leg by up to 180 perce

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By blocking a protein, VDAC1, in the insulin-producing beta cells, it is possible to restore their normal function in case of type 2 diabetes. In preclinical experiments, the researchers behind a new study have also shown that it is possible to prevent the development of the disease. The findings are published in the

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Åtta av tio unga har kvar egen insulinproduktion ett år efter diagnosen typ 1 diabetes. En av tio till och med efter mer än fem år med sjukdomen. Detta är viktigt, blodsockret är lättare att kontrollera och risken för komplikationer senare i livet är lägre. Fyndet att så många så länge har kvar överlevande insulinpr

Site-selected crystal material synthesis at the atomic scale has been a long-standing challenge. NanoLundians Rainer Timm and Yi Liu use nanowire crystal phase heterostructures as templates for self-selective growth of one- and two-dimensional GaBi nanostructures, which allows a versatile design with atomic-scale precision. Scaling down material synthesis to crystalline structures only a few atoms
