This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A new method that slowly releases drugs locally in the brain has been developed by researchers at Lund University in Sweden. The drug is encapsulated in nanoparticles and delivered to the brain tissue via flexible electrodes. The method has been tested on mice and published in the Journal of Nanobiotechnology among ot

By using cells isolated from cancer patients and mixing them with a new technology called “OssiGel”, it is possible to engineer human mini-bones. These miniaturized organs consist of mature bone and marrow tissue and can be used as model to study the disease mechanisms behind cancers that arise in bone marrow or spread to the bones, and offer the personalized testing of new drugs. Paul Bourgine is

Hello there, Pål Stenmark, Professor of Structural Biochemistry at the Department of Experimental Medical Science. You’ve just been honoured with the 2021 Lindblomska Award from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences for you discovery of a new botox poison that wards off malaria mosquitoes! Can you really use botox against mosquitoes? – The botox used by humans doesn’t work on insects, but we’ve no

MultiPark researchers have discovered a new promising pharmacological approach stimulating recovery after stroke. Professor Tadeusz Wieloch tells about how the MultiPark Innovation Office supported the first steps in converting their academic research findings into something with commercial potential that may finally benefit the patients. Around 80% of people who suffer a stroke permanently lose s

Is it possible to put a value on nature and the vital ecosystem services it provides for us? What are the pros and cons of different valuation models? These are the key questions addressed in a new report by IPBES, the UN’s biodiversity panel, to be published on 11 July. The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) can be described as the equivalent

Research at Lund University in Sweden has found a new way to create nano-sized magnetic particles using ultrafast laser light pulses. The discovery could pave the way for new and more energy-efficient technical components and become useful in the quantum computers of the future. Magnetic skyrmions are sometimes described as magnetic vortices. Unlike ferromagnetic states - which occur in convention

Det är sedan tidigare klarlagt att beröring kan utlösa stressreaktioner hos växter. Men de molekylära förklaringsmodellerna har hittills varit spartanska. Men nu har forskare hittat nya genetiska nycklar till varför växter reagerar så kraftfullt på mekanisk stimulering. När du vattnar dina trädgårdsväxter reagerar de direkt på en biokemisk nivå.

The results from the autumn travel habits survey show that a majority of the University’s staff (approx. 80%) get to and from work by walking, cycling or using public transport. This is a higher percentage than for other large organisations in Lund. However, there is potential for even more people to commute sustainably by investments in public transport and measures to promote cycling on campus.
