Lund University is taking an important step to strengthen research on total defence and preparedness through the establishment of LUPREP at Campus Helsingborg.  “This is not to be a narrow-minded centre where everyone thinks the same.

Several researchers at the Center for Advanced Middle Eastern Studies were doing field work during the Arab Spring. It has left deep traces in them - but also resulted in new research projects. The Arab Spring is a term describing the uprisings that started in several countries in North Africa and the Middle East in 2011. The first one took place in Tunisia and was then followed by unrest in Egypt

Narrative medicine provides tools for clinicians to read patients better. 2022 Sandblom Prize Lecture will be given by pioneering Professor Rita Charon of Columbia University on the discipline that uses the arts to improve understanding. Clinicians trained in narrative medicine are more able to listen for what their patients tell them, to see from others’ perspectives – including patients and fami

Five years after the opening of the prestigious Wallenberg Centre for Molecular Medicine, nothing has turned out as planned. The “tandem pairs” that were supposed to develop research together are now cheating on each other with other researchers. Private and work life have become intertwined and families often barbecue together. It’s a cold Sunday afternoon and the ground is covered in a thin laye

Lund University and Skåne University Hospital, Sweden, have signed a memorandum of understanding regarding a joint initiative on immunotherapy, a rapidly developing field within cancer research, among other areas. The aim is to accelerate work on new immunotherapies and develop joint strategies to translate research into patient benefit. Immunotherapy harnesses the body’s own immune system to figh

Carin Alegre Castegren When entering the lower gallery (KHM1) of Malmö Art Academy to see the MFA exhibition entitled “Tremeluz” by Carin Maria Alegre Castegren, I was met by numerous paintings, which all seemed to be in a state of flux. They had a lightness to them, an openness as well as something allusive. When reading the exhibition text, it was clear that Castegren had been thinking of light

The University’s Annual Academic Ceremony on 23 January 2026 saw Denmark’s former head of state, Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II, made an Honorary Fellow of Lund University. Honorary fellows at the University are extremely rare (former Swedish Prime Minister Ingvar Carlsson is the only previous recipient of the title) and for a Danish Queen to be made an Honorary Fellow this time around seemed a hi

Sedan många år går det att med blodprov screena barn som har ett förstadium till typ 1-diabetes. Screening görs i forskningsprojekt men inte i vården. Priset för att identifiera ett barn i riskzonen är knappt 100 000 kronor. Är det värt det? I tyska Bavaria erbjuds alla barn mellan 21 månader och sex års ålder screening för typ 1-diabetes inom Fr1da-studien. För barnet är det på flera sätt viktigt

Efter ett decennium av protokollutveckling och förberedelser har MultiParks forskare äntligen lanserat den kliniska fasen av STEM-PD-studien. Nyligen transplanterades dopamin-producerande celler som genererats från embryonala stamceller till den första parkinsonpatienten på Lunds universitetssjukhus. Flera av MultiParks forskningsledare har centrala roller i projektet. Hösten 2022 godkände Läkemed

Nu har forskare hittat en alternativ väg för att framställa atomer av det väldigt tunga grundämnet livermorium. Den nya metoden öppnar för möjligheten att skapa ett annat grundämne som skulle kunna bli världens hittills tyngsta: nummer 120. Jakten på nya grundämnen bygger på drömmen om att lyckas hitta en variant som är tillräckligt stabil för att kunna vara långlivad och inte sönderfalla meddetsa
