Innovation and successful higher education institutions go hand in hand. It would be difficult to name a well-renowned university that is not also strong on innovation issues. At Lund University, we have been working on innovation for a long time and in a variety of ways, not least in terms of research results that in turn have resulted in start-up companies. Many of these companies have also bene

De flesta säger ja direkt – självklart vill jag försöka rädda livet på mitt syskon. Men att donera stamceller är så mycket mer än en livräddande insats och medicinsk överföring av nödvändiga celler. Den känslomässiga insatsen är ofta hög, och donationen kan väcka stora existentiel
