Hur kommer det sig att en del rökare utvecklar KOL, fastän de inte röker fler cigaretter än andra som inte utvecklar sjukdomen? Nu har forskare vid Lunds universitet i samarbete med holländska och kanadensiska forskare* hittat en gen som kan vara svaret på frågan. Mellan 500 00

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Hälften av befolkningen har en mutation som kraftigt ökar nyproduktionen av ett av immunförsvarets viktigaste vapen, T-celler som tillverkas i thymus. Det visar nya forskningsresultatet som publiceras i Science Translational Medicine. Studien visar även att kvinnor producerar betydligt fler av nämnda celler som män.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated.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

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Just like self-driving cars, we can expect autonomous ships to become more common in the coming years. However, two safety challenges which need to be solved along the way, and which are different for ships compared to cars, are navigation without GPS and remote control. In his research, Mårten Lager has developed use

In a study led by Lund University and the Amsterdam University Medical Center, researchers used PET to analyse aggregates of tau pathology in more than 12,000 people from all over the world. The study – the largest ever of its kind – examines the connection between genetic predisposition, gender and age in relation to tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. The study is published in Nature Neuroscie

Delving into the realm where light and matter converge, Mattias Bertolino's embarks on a theoretical exploration of photoionization. Focusing on multiphoton ionization of noble gas atoms, using a mixture of extreme-ultraviolet and infrared light, he explores the intricate interplay between light and matter. He aims to improve our understanding of the fundamental interactions between light and matt
