We all know that when it burns, it smokes. But what do we really know about the contents of that smoke and how it is affected by different fire processes? Not only that, but how do these smoke particles affect the emergency personnel who are first on the scene? Researchers at NanoLund and LTH, in a unique experiment with the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB), have conducted measurements to

The state is a necessity for implementing human rights, right? Starting her PhD thesis, Dr. Therese Boje Mortensen wanted to challenge the presumptions behind this philosophy, studying the case of NGOs in India. Five years later, we have the results. In December of 2023, Dr. Therese Boje Mortensen successfully defended her dissertation NGOs as Child Rights Implementers in India at Lund University.

The aggregation of the protein Amyloid-beta (Abeta) into plaques outside the nerve cells has been recognized in patients with Alzheimer’s disease since 1905. But eliminating the plaques has not helped patients so far. Still, Tomas Roos was recently recruited as a postdoc in our lab. He thinks that Abeta matters, but we may need to focus on the aggregates elsewhere. Earlier this spring, he defended

I slutet av oktober 2022 gav Läkemedelsverket klartecken för klinisk prövning av den stamcellsbaserad terapin STEM-PD, för behandling av Parkinsons sjukdom. Bakom ligger flera års utveckling av de celler som genererats från embryonala stamceller och som nu ska transplanteras till patienter med Parkinsons för att ersätta de nervceller som förlorats under sjukdomen.

Two issues that have taken up a relatively large part of my time since I became pro vice-chancellor five years ago are the management of research data and IT security. Both were areas in which LU did not really live up to the expectations of a top 100 university. There are, naturally, many points of contact between the areas, and both require a larger element of university-wide solutions than what

Looksmaxing. Gigekonomi. Stress över att vara lyckad i andras ögon. Dagens unga vuxna – generation Z – har en utbredd psykisk ohälsa, men saknar kunskap om hur de ska kunna må bättre. Samtidigt brister vården och stödet för gruppen som är i början av vuxenlivet. Det vill forskare i Lund belysa – och ändra på, med hjälp av en e-hälsoapp. I ett år har forskarna kartlagt den psykiska hälsan hos perso

Currently, a lot is known about which genes are responsible for our individual blood groups, however not much is understood about how and why the levels of the blood group molecules differ between one person and another. And this can be important for blood transfusion safety. Now a research group in Lund has developed a toolbox that finds the answer – and in doing so, has solved a 50-year-old myst

En innovation behöver inte nödvändigtvis vara något som har med patent och produkter att göra. Det kan handla om en plattform eller en idé om hur man gör allmänna platser tillgängliga för utövare av olika religioner. – Vi inom humaniora och teologi måste omdefiniera innovationsbegreppet, menar ­Johannes Persson, HT:s dekan, och får medhåll av Bo Ahrén, som är ordförande för fakulteternas innovatio
