Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. För drygt hundrafemtio år sedan blev det lika viktigt att forska som att undervisa. Universitetsläraren blev ”vetenskapsman” och den nya yrkesrollen hjälpte akademikern att klättra på samhällsstegen. Hur ser det ut i dag? Forskning är fortfarande högsta prioritet och anslagen har aldrig varit så stora som nu. Men ha

Researchers from Lund University, building on previous studies, have been working to understand why stem cells are transforming into cancer. Previously they revealed that small RNA molecules, long considered “junk” or degradation byproducts of RNA-sequencing, are emerging as key regulators of important cellular processes, like protein synthesis. Their latest discovery is published in Nature Cell B

For many cancer patients, successful treatment depends on whether the disease is detected early or responds to existing therapies. With new grants from the Swedish Cancer Society (Cancerfonden), three postdoctoral researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center will investigate new drivers of cancer development and how the immune system can be more effectively mobilised against tumors. In M

”Ah, vi äter ute idag”. Sommar är för många förknippat med lata dagar med flödande spontanitet. Men för familjer med barn med ätsvårigheter består ”ledigheten” ofta av strategier för att få i barnet näring. Föräldrar till barn med ätsvårigheter upplever sig ofta stå ensamma, utan hjälp från vården och med omgivningens ständiga ifrågasättande. Logopeden och medicine licentiat Kajsa Lamm, har djupin

Under sin mer än 50-åriga karriär har diabetesforskaren Åke Lernmark gjort flera betydande upptäckter som har ökat kunskapen om typ 1-diabetes. Hans forskning bidrar till att skapa förutsättningar för ett nationellt screeningprogram i Sverige. I Sverige insjuknar omkring 1000 barn och lika många vuxna i typ 1-diabetes varje år. Sjukdomen får stora konsekvenser för de familjer som drabbas. Barn med

Eating cheese and cream with a high fat content may be linked to a lower risk of developing dementia. This is shown by a new large-scale study from Lund University. The researchers analysed the dietary habits of more than 27,000 people and linked these to the occurrence of dementia over a follow-up period of up to 25 years. The debate about low-fat diets has long shaped our health advice and influ
