A study at Lund University reveals that traumatic brain injury alters the small vessels in the brain, resulting in an accumulation of amyloid beta — a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. The findings suggest that vascular dysfunction could be an early driver in neurodegenerative disorders rather than being caused by neuronal damage. The study is published in Acta Neuropathologica. An increased risk o

Over one hundred million years ago, the impact of an asteroid on the moon formed the giant crater Tycho, which is visible from Earth. The date of this event is established as being 109 million years ago, but a new doctoral thesis from Lund University in Sweden has now shown that the crater is probably much older. For several hundred years, humans have been fascinated by the Tycho crater, which is

Stem cells from umbilical cords in Skåne are improved with nanotubes. By cross-pollinating nanotechnology with stem cell biology, researchers are creating gentle methods to ensure that more cells perform better. Blood stem cells are altered without showing that they have been modified. “If you are interested in working with blood stem cells in Sweden, this is the place to be.” So says Martin Hjort
