Alltmer forskning ger stöd för att diabetes kan delas in i fem olika undergrupper. Forskare vid Lunds universitet har nu undersökt om en persons genetiska risk för olika undergrupper kan användas för att bedöma risken att utveckla kranskärlssjukdom. Forskarlaget utvecklade genetiska riskpoäng och fann att poängen för en undergrupp kunde förutsäga kranskärlssjukdom redan innan en diabetesdiagnos ha

Vid årsskiftet firar Skåne två år som en region med SMS-livräddning. Närmare 24 000 skåningar har anmält sig villiga att rycka ut när mobilen larmar om hjärtstopp i närheten. Lundaforskare tittar nu närmare på förloppet vid hjärtstopp utanför sjukhus: Hur ser förutsättningarna ut för de utryckande civilpersonerna? Och hur går det för de personer som överlever? – Vi i Skåne har en mycket robust HLR

When you are cleaning your car with your high-pressure washer have you ever considered how it works? Well we have and to figure that out we need to see how the liquid looks like in 3D. As is seen in the video above we have 3D reconstructed the surface of a cone-like liquid using a technique developed at the division of combustion physics. This technique apply lasers and a single high-speed camera

Effects of a warmer Arctic are not only negative for the climate, according to a new thesis from the Centre for Environmental and Climate Science at Lund University, Sweden. Modelling showed that moving the tree line upwards could increase carbon storage, as trees sequester more carbon in their biomass than tundra plants. But the results are uncertain. The Arctic – the area north of the Arctic Cir

Enzymes developed in Lund could be used in university and industry labs worldwide in the future. This is what Professor Eva Nordberg Karlsson hopes; her research group has signed a contract with an Icelandic biotech company that is going to sell their products. Eva Nordberg Karlsson wants to give other researchers reliable access to enzymes. Photo: Ingela Björck The contract is the result of an EU

All employees and students at Lund University are welcome to the X Lab with their own projects, course work and ideas. For a long time, Lund University has lacked an open meeting place for staff and students to gather and work on their own projects/course work or share knowledge. In response to this, LTH has built up the X Lab, whose activities are based on collaboration and co-creation. The X Lab

For over 60 years, scientists have tried to determine whether plants are pollinated primarily during the day or at night — without reaching a clear conclusion. Now, a major research review from Lund University in Sweden has revealed that nighttime pollinators play just as significant a role as daytime species in 90 percent of the cases studied. Most of us know how important bees, birds, and butter

Lund University has been sliding down the lists of the three main university ranking organisations for several years. Today, we make only one of the top 100 lists, and even then with a mere five places above the 100 cut-off. Daniel J. Guhr is an expert on the importance of these rankings and knows what the consequences can be if the downward trend continues. “Losing a top 100 position in all three

A commercially available blood test has now been trialled in routine healthcare. “The blood test showed about 90% reliability even in primary care. This may have major implications for all those individuals who seek help for memory loss and suspected Alzheimer’s,” say the researchers at Lund University in Sweden behind the study. Alzheimer’s disease affects one in five women and one in ten men ove
