This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. To distinguish between education and research as early as the allocation stage of basic government funding does not benefit their intertwining. Nor is it helpful that only research counts if you want to have a good career. “Good teaching initiatives are to be rewarded and teaching should be well-regarded” according to

Congratulations to Jacob Vogel and Camila Consiglio who have been awarded grants to develop their research projects on Alzheimer's and fertility. Camila Consiglio's research focuses on infertility and the immune system that plays a central role in determining reproductive success. Jacob Vogel and his research team will develop computational simulations of Alzheimer’s disease enabling virtual exper
LUCSUS research tackles complex sustainability challenges, from the local to the global scale. Last year, in 2025, our researchers participated in many events and forums to present their work, including in conferences, panel debates and meetings – often in collaboration with actors outside of academia. LUCSUS outreach work aims to contribute to policy and drive social change. Global Health Symposi

Metformin is often described as the first-line medication for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. However, not all patients respond to the drug. Researchers at Lund University have discovered a combination of biomarkers that can predict which patients will benefit from the treatment. This work is now continuing in order to confirm the results in a larger patient group, with the intention of developi

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Det finns en mängd faktorer som ökar risken att drabbas av åderförkalkning och därmed också hjärtinfarkt och stroke. En del kan man själv påverka och behandla - exempelvis höga blodfetter, högt blodtryck eller rökning – medan andra är förutbestämda – som ålder och kön. Till den senare kategorin hör också ärftlighet.

Three Lund University research projects have been selected for the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA) 2026 list, which highlights Swedish research with the potential to benefit society. Previously known colloquially in Sweden as the "100 list" and published annually between 2019 and 2024, IVA's list returns in 2026 in a renewed and more selective form, highlighting around 30 ongoi
Researchers at Lund University have identified a previously unknown precursor stage of leukemia. The discovery may help explain why an especially aggressive form of blood cancer initiates already during fetal life. When we think of cancer, we usually imagine a disease that develops over many years in adults. But for one particular group of leukemia – acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) – it is quit

A study conducted by researchers at Lund University has found that protein oxidation forms an additional layer of regulation during the development of fetal blood stem cells and may play a role in the development of leukemia. The results are now available in the journal, Redox Biology. The human body is made up of trillions of cells and within each are proteins - large, complex molecules that play

We need to prioritise nature even if there are other conflicting interests – biodiversity is essential to all of us on the planet and ultimately to our health and wellbeing. The statement comes from Maria Blasi Romero, researcher in Biodiversity and Conservation at Lund University. “I went to COP15 to learn about the processes and how to share my research with those who can make use of the results

Turismperspektivet är en bra ingång för att förstå vårt samhälle, skriver Malin Zillinger i tidskriften Organisation & Samhälle. Turism handlar lika mycket om rumslig förflyttning som om samhälleliga utvecklingsprocesser som griper in i varandra. Här reflekterar hon kring turismmobilitet som en av många mobiliteter, turismens roll för att upprätthålla nära relationer samt hur svårt det är att tänk
