I believe that a common vision, clear and explicit core values and systematic work on the priority issues can better enable the researchers at the University to conduct research of the highest international quality that helps people to understand, explain and improve our world and the human condition. The Research Board has drawn up a new Research Strategy for 2023-26, which has now been approved

De nya blodproven för att diagnostisera Alzheimers sjukdom ger allt bättre möjligheter till tidig diagnos, men en utmaning är att markörerna som mäts förändras långt innan symtom utvecklas. Forskning ledd från Lunds universitet visar nu att en tidigare inte använd blodmarkör kan, när den kombineras med dagens blodmarkörer, betydligt minska risken för att personer får missvisande besked om sjukdom.

Throughout life, our lungs are vital organs. For newborns as well as for elderly patients, there is a need for safe and continuous lung monitoring in the healthcare. Some of today's common methods of examining the lungs, such as X-rays and computed tomography are limiting since they can not be applied continuously and carry ionizing radiation. A new technology for clinical lung monitoring is now o

Researchers have developed a model that can calculate individual countries' carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel burning using observations from space. The new results could be put to use within the Earth observation programme Copernicus, when satellites will be sent into space in the coming years. At the COP26 climate summit, the nations of the world agreed on a new document that for the fir

Alzheimers sjukdom kännetecknas av onormal spridning och ansamling av proteinet tau i hjärnan. En internationell studie visar nu hur tau sprids enligt fyra distinkta mönster som leder till olika symtom med olika prognoser för de drabbade individerna. Studien publiceras i Nature Medicine. – Till skillnad mot hur vi hittills tolkat spridningen av tau i hjärnan, visar fynden från denna studie att tau

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By 2023 the University is to have reduced its CO2 emissions by half, according to the new sustainability plan. Things look promising right now due to Covid-19 – there will be a radical reduction this year as air travel is the biggest CO2 villain. The number of flights booked between April and October 2020 fell by 97 p

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. At the time of the atmospheric nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s, the level of carbon-14 in the atmosphere increased dramatically. Now researchers from Lund University have developed a method for measuring the carbon-14 content in atherosclerotic plaques in patients. The measurements reveal how old and da

Two therapy dogs instead of one. There was a big turnout on May 5 when the pop-up event "Mental Health on Campus" was held in the Forum Medicum entrance. The goal was to give students a chance to share their thoughts on mental health. Either on a digital bulletin board or post-it notes on-site. Two therapy dog teams visited the event. Carina Tjörnstrand, PhD in Occupational Therapy, came with the

When Quick Bites for Researchers launched in spring 2025, it began as an experiment — an attempt to open up a new and informal channel between researchers and the library’s expertise. One year on, librarians Fredrik Larsson and Anja Zimmerman can look back at an initiative that not only survived its first year, but is now ramping up.“We wanted to find a simple, low-threshold way to support researc
