Electrotherapy using injectable nanoparticles delivered directly into the tumour could pave the way for new treatment options for glioblastoma, according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden. “By drop casting the nanoparticles into the tumour cavity after an operation, we could electrify the edges while the immune system is also activated”, says Roger Olsson, professor of Chemical Biology

What started as a discovery in Lund Nano Lab ten years ago is now turning into a sustainable path for the semiconductor industry. AlixLabs recently closed a €14.1 million Series A funding round, and aims to build a new generation of semiconductor manufacturing solutions. “Lund Nano Lab has been foundational. AlixLabs would not exist without it. The lab provided the infrastructure, expertise, and l

The LTH Faculty Board has decided to support building a new nanolab and the establishment of more activities in Science Village. The board of the Faculty of Science has, given current conditions, decided not to proceed with their establishment in Science Village. The University Board and University Management continue to see the University’s establishment there as an important goal. “For Lund Univ

Since the discovery of graphene twenty years ago, physicists have been looking for materials that consist of two-dimensional layers. This study is about a newly emerging family, the transition metal halides. “Transition metal halides are a new class of van der Waals materials that we have identified as an ideal platform for many-body engineering. We are very enthusiastic about this class of materi

Can a bee’s brain teach us to build better computers? Bees navigate with remarkable precision using less than one hundredth of a watt of energy, while today’s navigation chips often use over 7 watts and weigh about 80 times as much as a bee. In an interview with Horizon, Anders Mikkelsen, coordinator of the European Innovation Council-funded project InsectNeuroNano, tells us about how nature’s nav

Think of the proteins in your brain as delicate pieces of origami. A new study from the Medical Microspectroscopy group at Lund University reveals that polystyrene nanoplastics, commonly found in everyday items like food packaging, act like “clumsy hands” that force these proteins to fold incorrectly. Lead author Iran Augusto Neves da Silva used advanced label-free optical photothermal infrared (O

Vi hälsar alla anställda välkomna till vårt digitala Fakultetens morgonmöte. På mötet den 28 november kommer Emilie Stroh, projektledare på Enheten för forskningsdata (tidigare e-infra), att berätta om den nya infrastruktur för lagring och hantering av forskningsdata som nu tas fram på Lunds universitet. OBS: Mötet hålls på svenska.Detta är återkommande månadsvisa informationsmöten där du kan lära
Med Enheten för forskningsdata satsar universitetet på att förbättra stödet till forskarna i hanteringen av forskningsdata. På varje fakultet finns nu en data steward som ska hjälpa forskarna i deras arbete med forskningsdata. Maria Johnsson kommer axla rollen som data steward på Medicinska fakulteten. Den nya Enheten för forskningsdata ska ge forskare bättre stöd i att hantera sina forskningsdata
