Allt fler svenska tatuerar sig och Sveriges befolkning är nu en av de mest tatuerade i Europa. Samtidigt ökar förekomsten av melanom. En ny epidemiologisk studie från Lunds universitet, tyder på att tatueringar kan vara en riskfaktor för melanom. Forskningsläget kring tatueringar och cancerMot bakgrund av det dåliga kunskapsläget kring långsiktiga hälsoeffekter av tatueringar, tillsammans med att

I slutet av oktober samlas beslutsfattare från hela världen för att diskutera biologisk mångfald på nästa COP-konferens i Colombia. ”Besluten som fattas där avgör framtiden för vår jord” säger en av forskarna som reser dit, Jesica López vid Lunds universitet. Hon är ursprungligen från Colombia men där ansågs hennes forskning om avskogning i hemlandet för farlig. Den colombianska regnskogen är en d

She grew up in oil-rich Norway, with a father who travelled the world working in the oil sector. Little did Lina Lefstad know that just two decades later she would be a researcher at the forefront of efforts to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and tackle the climate crisis. What if we could easily capture carbon dioxide from combined heat and power plants and industrial sites, cool it to liqu

Around 20 000 Swedes are currently suffering from Parkinson’s disease, yet there are still only treatments to alleviate symptoms. Through a new biobank, researchers gain access to the genetic profiles of 1000 Parkinson’s patients together with comprehensive information about their lifestyles and medical histories. “I am convinced that many researchers will use the biobank over the next few years,

For the last three years, middle-school classrooms in Lund and Staffanstorp have been getting a special visit during the autumn: scientists walk in with stories about their favorite research topic and what it is like to work in a lab. This is the Science to Schools program, an initiative that began as an idea from PhD student Abigail Altman and has now grown into a collaboration involving Lund Ste

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. I corona-krisen måste vården prioritera rätt. I nuläget ska biologisk ålder vara ett kriterium när intensivvården prioriterar, men begreppet är inte exakt definierat. Därför riskerar den kronologiska åldern, det vi brukar mena med ålder, att användas i praktiken. För att prioritera rätt bör vården istället göra en h

Science should be able to be reproduced, but in reality, this is a step that is often overlooked. Researcher Burak Tunca at Lund University School of Economics and Management sees several possible measures that could make research better – and more open. “Researchers should always pre-register their studies and be open with their data. That way we can avoid bias and hypotheses being changed during

Emma Kritzberg took the train to a meeting on Mallorca. A journey that took 54 hours and cost double what it would have to fly a couple of hours to the Mediterranean island. Yet, flying was never an option. She has not flown once for work or privately in the last six years, a conscious decision she took to reduce her carbon footprint. Emma Kritzberg, professor at the Department of Biology, stepped
