Despite the pandemic, the mood is good among those working with international students. Richard Stenelo and Louise Corrigan think it is fantastic that so many of them have managed to arrive in Lund. “They have defied obstacles such as closed airports and vacated embassies.

Fredagkväll i Lund och strax ska Mikael Dolsten, forskningschef på läkemedelsbolaget Pfizer och gästprofessor i farmakologi vid Medicinska fakulteten, berätta historien om hur det gick till när hans företag på nio månader tog fram ett coronavaccin.

Att äta ost och grädde med hög fetthalt kan ha ett samband med en lägre risk för att utveckla demens. Det visar en ny stor studie vid Lunds universitet. Forskarna analyserade kostvanor hos drygt 27 000 personer och kopplade dessa till förekomsten av demens under en uppföljningstid på upp till 25 år. Debatten om fettsnåla dieter har länge format våra hälsoråd och påverkat hur vi ser på mat och häls
