Hjärt-kärlsjukdom är världens vanligaste dödsorsak. Det främsta underliggande tillståndet är ateroskleros: plack som bildas i blodkärlens väggar och kan orsaka akuta komplikationer, såsom hjärtinfarkt och stroke. Genom vår forskning ämnar vi identifiera kliniska metoder som kan hjälpa oss att hitta plack med hög komplikationsrisk, för att i tid kunna ge adekvat förebyggande behandling. Vi vill äveCardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death. The main underlying condition is atherosclerosis: plaques formed in the arteries which can cause complications as stroke or myocardial infarction. Our research aims to prevent complications by identifying clinical methods to detect patients with high-risk plaques to personalize treatment strategies as well as novel mechanisms to use as ther

Existing metastatic disease represents a major clinical challenge. The long-term goal of our study is to gain deeper understanding of cellular mechanisms underlying cancer metastasis. We focus on identification and validation of new predictive biomarkers and drug targets that are specifically for metastatic cancer. We recently focus on studying the role of lipid kinases in particular, phosphatidyl

Genom att utveckla nya lasrar och fotonkällor samt skräddarsydda lösningar för tillämpad spektroskopi i olika miljöer, adresserar profilområdet samhällsutmaningar relaterade till klimatförändringar, miljöpåverkan och bekämpning av cancer och andra hot mot människors hälsa.By developing novel lasers and photon sources as well as tailored solutions suited for applied spectroscopy in different environments, the profile area addresses specific societal challenges related to climate change, environmental impact and combatting cancer and other threats to human health.

Sektionen Forskning, samverkan och innovation (FSI) omfattar idag fyra avdelningar - LU Innovation, Forskningsservice, Samverkan och Development Office. På sektionen arbetar 86 personer.

FSI provides support to researchers, external collaboration partners and management on issues regarding research fund

We present an interim archaeological report on the ship- wreck of the Danish-Norwegian flagship Gribshunden. Built in 1485, extensively employed by King Hans as his floating castle, and ultimately lost in June 1495 en route to Kalmar, the ship carried people and material selected to further the political goal of re-unifying the Nordic region. Three field campaigns led by Lund University and Blekin

Hudcancer, inklusive malignt melanom, keratinocytcancer (tidigare icke-melanomhudcancer) och också mer sällsynta hudcancerdiagnoser ökar snabbt i de flesta ljushyade populationer. En hudcancerdiagnos ger inte bara inverkan på hälsoekonomiska mätvärden utan också främst på individens livskvalitet. I vår forskargrupp fokuserar vi på kliniskt baserad och registerbaserad hudcancerforskning men även tiSkin cancers, including malignant melanoma, keratinocyte cancer (formerly non- melanoma skin cancer) and also more rare skin cancers are increasing rapidly in most fair-skinned populations. A skin cancer diagnosis has impact not only on health economics but also on the quality of life of the individual. In our research group we focus on clinical skin cancer research as well as on translational ski

Pufendorfinstitutet är ett tvärvetenskapligt institut med syfte att stimulera till samarbete mellan forskare från olika discipliner inom Lunds universitet. I "Teman" och" Advanced Study Groups" ges forskare från alla universitetets fakulteter möjlighet att tillsammans utforska vetenskapliga problem .The Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies is an interdisciplinary institute with the aim to stimulate collaboration between researchers from different disciplines within Lund University. In "Themes" and "Advanced Study Groups", researchers from all faculties of the university are given the opportunity to jointly explore scientific issues.

Popular Abstract in English Since the onset of the 20th century, human society has been using non-renewable resources, mainly oil, for the production of fuels and chemicals that are now an integral part of our everyday life. In the last few decades however, concerns regarding environmental effects, geopolitical issues and the eventual depletion of oil have led to us re-evaluating our dependency onConcerns regarding environmental issues such as greenhouse gas emissions and climate change have led to a shift within the research community and chemical and energy industry sectors for finding sustainable routes for producing fuels and chemicals from renewable resources, thereby minimizing our dependence on petroleum. The C3-chemical 3-hydroxypropionic acid has been identifed as a top candidate

During the last decades, several research groups have used bisphosphonates for local application to counteract secondary bone resorption after bone grafting, to improve implant fixation or to control bone resorption caused by bone morphogenetic proteins (BMps). We focused on zoledronate (a bisphosphonate) due to its greater antiresorptive potential over other bisphosphonates. Recently, it has beco

Fokus för forskningen kan sammanfattas med orden vardag, hälsa och välbefinnande. Aktivitet, dess komplexitet, mening och vilken betydelse det har för människors upplevelse av hälsa och välbefinnande – är centralt. Vi som är organiserade i gruppen arbetar i varierande omfattning med undervisning, forskning och med att sprida våra resultat till brukare och olika verksamheter i samhället.The research in the Occupational therapy and occupational science-group is focused on occupation, health and wellbeing. The complexity, meaning and importance of the concept of everyday occupations for people’s health, is the key. The group works to a varying extent at teaching, research and dissemination of our results to users, in the society.

The relationship between requirements engineering and testing has been a key interest throughout my research career. It cannot be that requirements engineers are from Omicron Persei 7 and testers from Omicron Persei 9—we all live on the same planet. I’m happy to co-author this column with a former collaborator from a test automation EU project, now a manager at Ericsson. With this issue’s focus on
