Researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center have made a new discovery about how the human genome protects itself from disruption during critical stages of life. Their study, recently published in Nature Communications, reveals how two key defense mechanisms—DNA methylation and the HUSH complex—work together to safeguard genomic stability. The human genome contains large stretches of rep

For many cancer patients, successful treatment depends on whether the disease is detected early or responds to existing therapies. With new grants from the Swedish Cancer Society (Cancerfonden), three postdoctoral researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center will investigate new drivers of cancer development and how the immune system can be more effectively mobilised against tumors. In M

We all remember the disruptive boys in the class. The ones who shoplifted, got into playground fights and started smoking early. Some of these boys were quite simply displaying normal defiance and are now living a good and stable life as adults.

Finding housing is a major challenge for students in university towns like Lund, where demand far exceeds supply. Long queue systems, high rents, and limited options force many to commute or move frequently — disrupting their studies and daily life.
