Doctoral student in epidemiological methods / applied medical statistics

The doctoral project is a project in epidemiological methods / applied medical statistics in the field of infectious diseases. The overall aim of the project is to investigate socioeconomic and demographic gradients in the risk of severe infectious diseases through epidemiological studies, with a special focus on sepsis and covid-19, to study direct and indirect effects and long-term effects after

Comparison of the performances of survival analysis regression models for analysis of conception modes and risk of type-1 diabetes among 1985–2015 Swedish birth cohort

The goal is to examine the risk of conception mode-type-1 diabetes using different survival analysis modelling approaches and examine if there are differentials in the risk of type-1 diabetes between children from fresh and frozen-thawed embryo transfers. We aimed to compare the performances and fitness of different survival analysis regression models with the Cox proportional hazard (CPH) model u

Acquired brain injuries – A special interest group

Recent studies indicate that acquired brain injuries, such as traumatic brain injury, trigger potentially harmful responses that may lead to neurodegenerative pathology. “Acquired brain injuries and their links to neurodegeneration diseases” is a new special interest group (SIG) collaborating across research groups to elucidate molecular processes that may mediate the relation between acquired bra

Fluid biomarkers – A special interest group

Thanks to the recent development of diagnostic tools based on blood biomarkers linked to Alzheimer’s, it is possible to predict whether an individual will develop the disease. Therefore, MultiPark researchers gather across groups to investigate hidden opportunities and develop implementable tools also for other brain conditions with similar approaches. “Development and implementation of fluid biom

Brain in Picture – The winning photo!

In April, the young MultiPark working group organized a photo competition entitled "Brain in Picture". The external jury has had a hard time choosing, but now, they have appointed the best entry. Congratulations to Ellinor Molnár, bachelor student in the Behavioral Neuroscience Laboratory, for a great picture and for winning the competition! The jury had the following motivation: The winning entry

Exploring the Role of 'Jumping Genes' in X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism

New research is underway at Lund University, led by Dr. Vivien Horvath, a postdoctoral researcher at Lund Stem Cell Center. Supported by a new grant from the Collaborative Center for X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP), Vivien aims to improve our understanding of XDP, a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by the recent insertion of a transposable element. Transposable elements, also known as '

Cell replacement therapy for Parkinson's Disease – Ph.D. interview with Fredrik Nilsson

Fredrik Nilsson defended his Ph.D. thesis on May 10, 2023. For the last four years, he has explored the use of patient-specific cells in cell replacement therapy for Parkinson's disease to identify strategies to safeguard these transplanted cells from disease-related degeneration. Now, he tells us about his findings, their potential implications for future therapies, and valuable insights and advi

New Study Reveals Astrocytes' Role in Frontotemporal Dementia

One of Multipark's associated research groups has published a new study that reveals the role of astrocytes in the development of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Their findings, now in the journal Brain Communications, provide valuable insights into the cellular mechanisms of the disease and open up new possibilities for developing early diagnostics and potential interventions for patients with FTD

Summer greetings from MultiPark at the World Parkinson Congress

Summer is the right period for recharging our batteries through vacations and travels. It also seems to be an attractive time to organize scientific conferences… Here are some warm summer wishes from three MultiPark research group leaders and the MultiPark management team attending the World Parkinson Congress in Barcelona. Every third year, the World Parkinson Coalition organizes a breathtaking m

Lewy body disease can be detected before symptoms

Lewy body disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer's disease. A research group from Lund University has now shown that the disease can be detected before symptoms appear, using a spinal fluid test. The studies are published in Nature Medicine, where the researchers also demonstrate that reduced sense of smell is strongly linked to Lewy body disease even before ot

Electrotherapy without surgery

Researchers at Lund and Gothenburg Universities have successfully developed temporary, organic electrodes that can be seamlessly integrated into biological systems. The method, now published in Nature Communications, opens up a future where bioelectronics can be implanted in and removed from the body without surgery. Electrotherapy is a medical treatment method that uses electrical currents to sti
