During the summer, Kristina Lång's research received a lot of attention in the media, nationally as well as internationally. The study showed that AI-assisted breast cancer screening is a safe alternative to radiologists' double-reading, reducing the workload of the overburdened profession by as much as 44 percent. We asked Kristina Lång about her experiences. Also, tips on how to increase outreac

In recent years, great advances have been made in the development of new successful immunotherapies to treat cancer. CAR T-cell therapy and antibody treatments are two types of targeted immunotherapies that have revolutionised areas of cancer care. However, there are still significant challenges in the identification of cancer cell surface proteins as targets for immunotherapies. A research group

Mammography screening supported by artificial intelligence (AI) is a safe alternative to today’s conventional double reading by radiologists and can reduce heavy workloads for doctors. This has now been shown in an interim analysis of a prospective, randomised controlled trial, which addressed the clinical safety of using AI in mammography screening. The trial, led by researchers from Lund Univers

All over the world, thousands of experts are sitting entering information about their home countries into a huge democracy database. Soon, three quarters of the world’s countries will have been entered. “In my megalomaniac moments, I usually compare the database to the CERN particle accelerator. It will be as important a tool for political scientists as CERN is for physicists”, says Jan Teorell, w

There is a large carton of chicken eggs on the bench in Sofie Mohlin's laboratory. They have been delivered during the morning and soon they will be placed in the 37-degree heat of the incubator so that the embryo can develop. Already 42 hours after fertilization, researchers can begin their experiments to study how neuroblastoma develops. Sofie Mohlin is an Associate Professor in Molecular Physio

In the so far largest clinical study of the development of microbiomes, i.e. intestinal flora, in infants, researchers at the Baylor College of Medicine, USA, have found that development takes place in different phases that can be associated with lifestyle changes during the early stages in life. The findings are based on samples from the TEDDY study and are published in two articles in the scient

You are at the shop to buy food for the weekend. The shop’s security guard is keeping a close eye on you and you start to get nervous. He approaches you and you feel that you are starting to break out in a sweat. What the heck does he really want? This is not happening for real. It is just a situation in a virtual world, tailor-made for violent criminals to train them to control their aggression.

It is not every day that the inauguration of a toilet draws a hundred spectators. Such a toilet would have to be pretty special – and this one is. It is special because it is flushed using rain water gathered from the roof of Kemicentrum. LUM was able to follow the rainwater’s journey from parapet to porcelain. An ordinary toilet flush uses around five litres of water. The water used is the same a
