This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In the so far largest clinical study of the development of microbiomes, i.e. intestinal flora, in infants, researchers at the Baylor College of Medicine, USA, have found that development takes place in different phases that can be associated with lifestyle changes during the early stages in life. The findings are base

Last week, Thesis Support Week at LUSEM took place for the third time; a week packed with lectures and workshops preparing students for their thesis writing. Daniel Gunnarsson, Library Manager at Lund University School of Economics and Management (LUSEM), explains how the idea to provide students with support early in the thesis writing process came to be. Getting started on your thesis and unders

In recent years, great advances have been made in the development of new successful immunotherapies to treat cancer. CAR T-cell therapy and antibody treatments are two types of targeted immunotherapies that have revolutionised areas of cancer care. However, there are still significant challenges in the identification of cancer cell surface proteins as targets for immunotherapies. A research group

In late May and early June, the Pufendorf Themes will host their final events, presenting the interdisciplinary work carried out at the Pufendorf IAS over the past academic year. The events vary in format and audience – some are open to the public, while others are aimed at specially invited guests, depending on the content and purpose defined by each Theme. This year, we’re particularly happy to

If we can understand how and why light and matter behave as they do, we are one step closer to solving some of the most fundamental problems in physics. Finding the answers to these questions drives Ville Maisi, Associate Professor of Solid States Physics, Department of Physics.

A new study from Lund University in Sweden raises questions about the efficacy of bariatric operations involving gastric bypass. The results show that the biggest metabolic changes happened directly after surgery. Just a year after the operation, the concentration of metabolites and fats had returned to almost the same levels as before the procedure. Previous research has shown that the majority o

Amniotic fluid, the protective liquid surrounding an unborn baby, is discarded as medical waste during caesarean section deliveries. However, there is increasing evidence that this fluid is a source of valuable biological material, including stem cells with the potential for use in cell therapy and regenerative medicine. A team of scientists and clinicians at Lund University in Sweden have now dev

The city is the perfect place to study nature and how humans affect it, says Johan Kjellberg Jensen. In a new dissertation from the Centre for Environmental and Climate Science (CEC) at Lund University, he explores the interaction between plants, animals, and humans in the physical environment of cities.  Many of us associate 'nature' with something we go to the countryside to experience. But natu

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. New research from Lund University, Sweden, has shown for the first time that chimpanzees catch yawns from humans, and that the susceptibility to contagious yawning develops gradually with age – just like it does in humans. While juvenile chimpanzees (5-8 years of age) catch human yawns, infant chimpanzees seem immune

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Stem cell researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed a new research model of the early embryonic brain. The aim of the model is to study the very earliest stages of brain to understand how different regions in the brain are formed during embryonic development. With this new insight, researchers hope to be

Six researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center have been awarded SEK 13.4 million from the Swedish Childhood Cancer Fund, Barncancerfonden, in its latest funding round. The projects address key challenges in childhood cancer, from understanding how the disease develops to designing treatments that are more precise and less harmful for young patients. In total, Barncancerfonden is inves
