In a newly published study in Nature Communications, Emma Hammarlund and her research team at Lund University detail how daily fluctuations in oxygen levels influenced the rise of animal life. Their findings offer new insights as to how dramatic daily shifts in oxygen availability and stress may have played a central role in the evolution of complex organisms on Earth. “Now, when we explore animal
Researchers at Lund University, together with colleagues at the NIST Synchrotron Facility in the USA, have mapped on an atomic level what happens in a virus particle when the temperature is raised. "When the temperature rises, the virus's genetic material changes its form and density, becoming more fluid-like, which leads to its rapid injection into the cell," says Alex Evilevitch who led the stud

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have identified one of the reasons why the childhood cancer neuroblastoma becomes resistant to chemotherapy. The findings are significant for how future treatments should be designed. The results have been published in Science Advances. Neuroblastoma is an aggressive cancer of the sympathetic nervous system, especially of the adrenal gland. Despite intense

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Two full-time technicians help biology researchers to realise new ingenious ways of gathering data on how animals move. Thanks to computer chips, wireless communication and nanotechnology, the researchers can achieve groundbreaking results. Johan Bäckman and Arne Andersson sort out the technology for CAnMove projects.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. An extensive study has confirmed that the risk of developing coeliac disease is connected to the amount of gluten children consume. The new study is observational and therefore does not prove causation; however, it is the most comprehensive of its kind to date. The results are presented in the prestigious journal JAMA

Genom att beskriva sin forskning som en kamp mellan ont och gott och likna sig själv vid en hacker som attackerar cancerceller för att göra dem snälla tog doktoranden Luís Oliveira, Stamcellscentrum, hem vinsten i årets deltävling av Forskar Grand Prix. Det är en tävling i presentationsteknik för forskare och i år genomfördes den inför en publik på nästan 400 elever på Helsingborgs stadsteater den
