Lisa Flower har blivit intervjuad av Expressen angående sin forskning om "the emotional sniff" (som vi tidigare har skrivit en artikel om här på vår webbplats). ”– Min forskning visar att sniffande kan vara ett sätt för en talare att markera ett skifte från personliga åsikter till professionella åsikter och vice versa. Jag har kallat detta "the emotional sniff" eftersom personliga uttalanden tillå

Lisa Flowers artikel ”The (Un)emotional Law Student” som diskuterar det känslomässiga snörvlandet blev uppmärksammad i svensk media efter Donald Trumps snörvlande i första presidentvalsdebatten. Artikeln har nu använts av Forbes Magazine i USA för att analysera den andra presidentsvalsdebatten. Forbes Magazine kommer fram till att Trumps snörvlande var tydligt när han hotade presidentkandidat Hill

I artikeln ”Människans sociala natur är svår att förändra” har Sydsvenskan intervjuat Christopher Swader om ensamhet. ” – Det visade sig att den som har valt en mer isolerad livsstil, rent objektivt, som bor själv, går på färre sociala sammankomster och mer sällan har nära samtalspartner, ändå känner sig ensammare än den vars livsstil är den motsatta”.Artikeln finns att läsa på Sydsvenskans webbpl

On 13th of February, a transplant of stem cell-derived nerve cells was administered to a person with Parkinson’s at Skåne University Hospital, Sweden. The product has been developed by Lund University and it is now being tested in patients for the first time. The transplantation product is generated from embryonic stem cells and functions to replace the dopamine nerve cells which are lost in the p

With the arrival of spring, bumblebee queens take their first wing beat of the season and set out to find new nesting sites. But they are flying earlier in the year, as a result of a warmer climate and a changing agricultural landscape, according to new research from Lund University in Sweden. “We risk losing additional bumblebee species, and having less pollination of crops and wild plants”, says

By invading Ukraine, Russia is not only violating international law - it is also preventing people in Ukraine from enjoying the most basic human rights, such as the right to health care, medicine and education. Lena Halldenius and Jessica Almqvist, both professors of human rights and coordinators of Lund University's new profile area Human Rights in a Polarised World, answer four questions about h

Russia's invasion of Ukraine was clearly illegal. Yet it is unlikely that Vladimir Putin will be held accountable. Most people agree that war is morally wrong. But what is the legal framework? The UN Charter, which in 1945 laid the foundations for the UN's missions, powers, rules of procedure and organisation, prohibits military force between states. However, there are exceptions, such as when the

The war in Ukraine has now been going on for a year. The devastation is enormous, as are the human rights abuses. At the moment, most of the talk is about arms supplies and very little about diplomacy. When will be the appropriate time for diplomatic talks?

Does negotiating Sweden's NATO membership mean that the government is prepared to tinker with basic human rights and values? According to two political scientists, there is a risk of this happening. In the summer of 2022, Turkey, Sweden and Finland proposed an agreement that would see Turkey's NATO applications approved. The agreement was signed at a NATO meeting in Madrid. Although Turkey suspend

Is it possible to know exactly where to point a microscope in order to capture the precise moment a bacterium or a virus infects a cell? In order to take high resolution microscopic images of living biological material, you need to know exactly where to point the microscope. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now developed a software solution for smart, data-driven microscopy, which mak

Marine archaeologists from Lund University in Sweden have found exotic spices such as black pepper, cloves, ginger and saffron on the royal warship Gribshunden, that belonged to the Danish King Hans. The shipwreck is located on the sea floor off the southern coast of Sweden. The findings provide a fascinating insight into the world of the medieval elite. “It was a real surprise how well preserved

At the end of October 2022, the Swedish Medical Products Agency gave the go-ahead for a clinical trial of the stem cell-based therapy STEM-PD for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. The cells, generated from embryonic stem cells, have been in development for several years and will now be transplanted into patients with Parkinson’s to replace nerve cells lost due to the disease.

By reprogramming tumour cells to become the body’s defenders, Filipe Pereira and his colleagues hope to improve current cancer treatments. Right now, some of the immune system’s most important players, the dendritic cells, are patrolling your body in search of foreign substances. If they find something suspicious, they break it down into smaller pieces, called antigens, which are presented to the

New advanced therapies can alleviate or cure chronic diseases. But medical progress raises the question of how rights should be protected and balanced, according to Jessica Almqvist, professor in international law and human rights, who conducts research on gene therapies. With advanced therapies, doctors can treat or prevent serious diseases. Gene therapies are tailor-made and individualised. The

Stem cells from umbilical cords in Skåne are improved with nanotubes. By cross-pollinating nanotechnology with stem cell biology, researchers are creating gentle methods to ensure that more cells perform better. Blood stem cells are altered without showing that they have been modified. “If you are interested in working with blood stem cells in Sweden, this is the place to be.” So says Martin Hjort
