Directly after birth, the immune system completes production of a subtype of antibody-producing immune cells, B-1, that are to last for a lifetime. No more B1-cells are formed after that point. However, these cells are self-reactive – they produce not only antibodies against foreign substances, but also against the body’s own substances, and it is unclear why the immune system allows for the devel

Jenny Hansson, associate professor at Lund University, has been awarded an 11 million SEK grant from the Swedish Society for Medical Research (SSMF). This five-year SSMF Consolidator Grant will support her research into acute leukemia, focusing on uncovering the biological differences between childhood and adult forms of the disease. Why does childhood leukemia behave so differently from adult leu

Exercising too much and not getting enough rest is bad for your health. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the same is true for migratory birds. They need to rest not only to renew their energy levels but also in order to boost their immune system. After a period of physical exertion, vertebrates, including humans, usually need a period of recovery. Apart from the obvious – lowe

A consortium led by Paul Bourgine has been awarded EIC Transition grant with 2.5 million euros (EUR) over three years. This covers activities that are typically hard to finance - researchers refer to the famous « valley of death » illustrating the difficulty of translating promising basic research into human clinical practice.

In a pioneering nanoexperiment, a research team in Lund has succeeded in constructing a new and very effecient microwave photon detector. The discovery could accelerate the development of future quantum computers. Microwaves are a collective term for electromagnetic radiation in the higher radio frequency bands; they can be used for everything from warming up fish dishes to searching for extraterr

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Colonisation of remote islands has contributed to irreversible changes in their ecosystems. This finding emerges from an international study to which researchers from Lund University contributed. The analysis of 5000-year-old pollen enabled the research team to reveal the islands’ vulnerability. In the new study, publ

For the first time, researchers have been able to prove that city lights limit the ability of nocturnal animals to navigate by natural light in the night sky. Instead, they are forced to use streetlamps, neon light or floodlights to orient themselves. The findings are published in Current Biology. Some animals, including migratory birds, seals and moths, use light from the moon, stars and Milky Wa

For many years there has been an on-going discussion about how academic freedom is being challenged in many parts of the world, including Sweden. And when even some of the strongest academic bastions in the world such as Harvard are now fighting for their independence against the American federal administration’s political directives, it is clear that academia has not been crying wolf.

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har identifierat ett tidigare okänt förstadium till leukemi. Upptäckten kan ge svar på varför en särskilt aggressiv form av blodcancer uppstår redan i fosterlivet. När vi tänker på cancer handlar det ofta om en sjukdom som utvecklas under många år hos vuxna. Men för just en grupp av leukemi, akut lymfatisk leukemi (ALL), är det tvärtom – barn drabbas oftare än vuxna.
