Diabetes is a disease that is increasing exponentially worldwide, largely as a result of the food we eat and because we exercise too little. Diabetes causes great personal suffering and shortens lifespan, as well as placing a heavy economic burden on society as whole and our health care systems in particular. This summer, Paul Franks, a professor at Lund University Diabetes Centre, will be doing a

Godishimmel eller godishelvete? Konsumtionen av Halloween-relaterade produkter har skenat iväg sedan vi importerade traditionen från USA, och i år förväntas Halloweenfirandet i Sverige omsätta hela 1,6 miljarder kronor. Allhelgona eller Halloween har förvandlats från en stillsam svensk tradition där vi hedrar våra avlidna till en miljardindustri. Tidigare handlade det framför allt om att gå till k

Eight days. That's how long it takes for skin cells to reprogram into red blood cells. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden, together with colleagues at Center of Regenerative Medicine in Barcelona, have successfully identified the four genetic keys that unlock the genetic code of skin cells and reprogram them to start producing red blood cells instead. "We have performed this experiment on mi

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Emissions of greenhouse gases have a warming effect on the climate, whereas small airborne particles in the atmosphere, aerosols, act as a cooling mechanism. That is the received wisdom in any case. However, new research from Lund University in Sweden can now show that the tiniest aerosols are increasing at the expens
