Three researchers receive Barncancerfonden funding to investigate the causes of childhood leukemia

Each year, around 350 children in Sweden are diagnosed with cancer. Thanks to progress in research and treatment, six out of seven children today survive. But unlike cancer in adults, we don't know what causes most childhood cancers to develop. This spring Barncancerfonden, the Swedish Childhood Cancer Foundation, awarded SEK 64 million to 29 researchers across the country. The funding includes po

Why repetitive DNA matters for human brain evolution and disease

For decades, large stretches of human DNA were dismissed as ‘junk’ and considered to serve no real purpose. In a new study in Cell Genomics, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show that the repetitive part of the human genome plays an active role during early brain development and may also be relevant for understanding brain diseases. DNA carries the complete set of instructions an organism

Hjelt Diabetes Foundation supports research that can pave the way for new cell therapies

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease that usually requires lifelong treatment. A central goal for many diabetes researchers is to develop new cell therapies that can cure the disease. The Bo and Kerstin Hjelt Diabetes Foundation now provides support two diabetes researchers at Lund University working to learn more about diabetes. Among them is Associate Professor Isabella Artner, from the Lund Uni

Scientists uncover cellular “toolkit” to reprogram immune cells for cancer therapy

An international team led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden has identified the molecular tools needed to reprogram ordinary cells into specialised immune cells. The discovery, published in Immunity, could pave the way for more precise and personalised cancer immunotherapies. The team has taken an important step toward harnessing the immune system to fight cancer. Their work describes how

ERC grant awarded to explore how the immune system shapes fertility

Why do some pregnancies succeed while others do not? With support from a newly awarded ERC Starting Grant, Assistant Professor Camila Consiglio and her team at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center are embarking on a project to explore the role the immune system plays in fertility, and in determining reproductive success. Infertility is a deeply personal and global health issue, affecting one in

Researchers find new clues as to why leukemia develops in infants

Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have identified a previously unknown precursor stage of leukemia. The discovery may help explain why an especially aggressive form of blood cancer initiates already during fetal life. When we think of cancer, we usually imagine a disease that develops over many years in adults. But for one particular group of leukemia – acute lymphoblastic leu

DN Debatt: ”Kalhyggesbruk ger stora utsläpp av växthusgaser”

Antagandet att bioenergi är klimat- eller koldioxidneutralt ifrågasätts allt mer. Återbetalningstiden för koldioxidskulden som uppstår vid förbränning kan vara mycket lång. Exempelvis generar kalhyggesbruk mycket stora utsläpp av växthusgaser de första 10–15 åren efter avverkning, skriver forskarna Anders Lindroth och Christina Moberg.

Dan Metcalfe samordnar projekt Peruansk regnskog

Ett stor "gardin" sätts upp för att minska vatteningången till delar av skogen. NBC News gjorde nyligen ett reportage om ett pågående VR-Uforsk-finansierat projekt samordnat av Dr Dan Metcalfe. Projektet går bl.a. ut på att man riggar en 30 meter hög 40 meter bred gardin mitt i orörd molnregnskog i Peru. Syftet är att minska den mängd vatten som når skogen, för att därefter mäta följderna detta få
