In a collaborative study, researchers from Lund Stem Cell Center and University College London have developed a novel method of isolating ‘young’ stem cells still present in old mice. They show that activity of mitochondria, the power generators of the cell, is a stronger indicator of stem cell fitness than age and is a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of age associated disease. The

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden studied self-grooming rats in order to better understand how the brain chooses what comes next in a sequence of actions. The study shows that when they switch from one action to the next in the grooming chain, the signalling in different parts of the brain changes. The results, published recently in Science Advances, increase understanding of which processe

A cancer diagnosis often entails many hospital visits and intensive treatments that can be very tiring for the patient. In the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic, however, cancer patients were identified as an at-risk group, so forms of treatment were modified. Now a group of physicians at Lund University want to evaluate how these new forms of treatment were experienced by the patients themselve
