Our research is focused on the regulation of the complement system in health and disease. Complement is crucial part of innate immunity and thus protects host from infections and contributes to removal of dying cells. We study involvement of complement in pathology of rheumatic and inflammatory diseases as well as several types of cancer. Further, we investigate strategies developed by bacterial
Antioxidationsmedicin handlar om kroppens skydd mot oönskad oxidation. Oxidation är kemiska reaktioner som ständigt pågår mellan kroppens molekyler och luftens syre. För att kontrollera oxidationen så den inte blir för häftig tillverkar kroppen försvarsmolekyler, s.k. antioxidanter. Utan antioxidanterna hade vår kropp förmultnat på några månader, ungefär som en brasa som brinner upp, eller ett äppAntioxidation medicine describes how the body is protected against unwanted oxidation. ’Oxidation’ is a name for the chemical reactions between oxygen and the molecules of the body. Protection molecules, ’antioxidants’ are produced by the body to prevent the oxidation reactions from becoming violent. Without antioxidation control our bodies would quickly decay similar to a log fire or a decomposin
Internrevisionen är en oberoende, objektiv säkrings- och rådgivningsverksamhet med uppgift att tillföra värde och förbättra universitetets verksamhet. Vid Lunds universitet är internrevisionen en från den operativa verksamheten fristående enhet, administrativt placerad under rektor. Internrevisionen rapporterar resultatet av sitt arbete direkt till universitetsstyrelsen som är internrevisionens up
Enheten för förbränningsfysik är sedan 2001 lokaliserad i Enoch Thulin-laboratoriet vid Fysiska Institutionen. Verksamheten är inriktad på att öka kunskapen om förbränningsprocesser med forskning av både experimentell och teoretisk natur. Den experimentella forskningen är inriktad på utveckling av laserbaserade mätmetoder för bestämning av bl.a. temperatur och ämneskoncentrationer. Metoderna, som Combustion Physics is since 2001 located in the Enoch Thulin-laboratory at the Physics Department. The general aim of the activity is to increase the basic understanding of combustion processes through experimental as well as theoretical research. The experimental research is directed towards development of laser-based diagnostic methods for measurements of parameters such as temperature and speci
Currently, the focus of the group’s research has been on the relationship between room acoustics and voice use in teachers. This work, supported by AFA insurance, examines the prevalence and aetiology of voice disorders in teachers in Southern Sweden, applying a blend of techniques: questionnaires, high-speed laryngeal imaging, acoustic and perceptual voice analysis, and field studies of voice use
Available HIV treatments are unsatisfactory since they don’t clear the infection and result in expensive and life‐long treatment on an every‐day basis without clear evidence of the long‐term consequences and side effects of this. Our research is highly translational and combines clinical, experimental and bioinformatics research in various systems virology approaches to uncover nocel key virus-hosAvailable HIV treatments are unsatisfactory since they don’t clear the infection and result in expensive and life‐long treatment on an every‐day basis without clear evidence of the long‐term consequences and side effects of this.

Centre for Innovation Research – CIRCLE – is an interdisciplinary centre which connects innovation researchers from different faculties at Lund University as well as other Swedish and international universities. The meaning of the term innovation has transformed and is now tightly linked to sustainable development goals including climate change, social sustainability and food security. CIRCLE’s a
