Translationell cancerforskning bildades 2013 som en del av Lunds universitets cancercenter (LUCC) på Medicon Village. TCR består av nio grupper som arbetar med olika frågeställningar och tumörtyper, men med ett gemensamt mål att utveckla nya behandlingsmetoder. Frågeställningarna bearbetas multidisciplinärt med hjälp av cellbiologi, bioinformatik, musmodeller, humana vävnadsarrayer och avancerade The Division of Translational Cancer Research (TCR) was founded 2013 in conjunction with the formation of Lund University Cancer Center (LUCC) at Medicon Village. TCR consists of nine research groups with different areas of expertise, but together working on projects with the common goal of improving cancer diagnostics and cancer therapy. Our multidisciplinary experimental settings include human g

Genom hela livet utgår all blodbildning från så kallade blodstamceller som försörjer kroppen med miljarder blodkroppar varje dag. En normal balanserad produktion av blodkroppar via blodstamcellerna är avgörande för att vi skall hålla oss friska. Störningar i denna balans kan få dramatiska konsekvenser, vilka bland annat inkluderar utveckling av anemi (”blodbrist”) och en ökad känslighet att drabbaDysfunctional blood cell development can have fatal consequences on human health, with implications for several key areas of modern medicine, including amongst others the broad research areas of oncology and immunology. The Division of Molecular Hematology (DMH) aims to generate new knowledge about the regulation of blood cell development by applying recent advances in stem cell technology, in ord

Our research aims to systematically characterize the extrinsic biochemical and biomechanical signals that control cell fate. A major source of external signals is the extracellular matrix (ECM) where a plethora of structural proteins, ligands, enzymes and secreted factors are stored. This collection of molecules, often called matrisome, can regulate cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosi

Målgruppen för vår forskning är vuxna med begränsningar i delaktighet och vardagsliv på grund av sjukdom, skada eller ålder. Forskningen baseras på teorier och modeller hämtade bland annat ur arbetsterapi och aktivitetsvetenskap, gerontologi, rehabilitering, hälsoekonomi, utvärdering och implementeringsforskning. Forskargruppen är knuten till Centre for Ageing and Supportive Environments, CAThe target group of our research is adults with limitations in participation and everyday life due to illness, injury or age. Our research is based on theories and models derived mainly within occupational therapy and occupational science, gerontology, rehabilitation, health economics, evaluation and implementation research. The research group is linked to the Centre for Ageing and Supportive

En cirkulär byggindustri är en viktig del i omställningen till koldioxidneutralitet och ett hållbart samhälle. Profilområdet bidrar med kunskap där luckor finns och tar sig an branschens stora utmaningar kring klimatpåverkan, såsom energianvändning vid produktion av material och konstruktioner, användning av naturresurser och minskade avfallsmängder.A circular building sector is an important part of the transition to carbon neutrality and a sustainable society. The profile area contributes knowledge where there are gaps and addresses the industry's major challenges regarding carbon impact and energy use in the production of materials and constructions, use of natural resources and reduction of waste.

Att studera den ekonomiska utvecklingen i det globala syd ur ett långsiktigt perspektiv blir allt viktigare i en samtid av globalisering, integration och konvergens. Detta har relevans för både det globala nord och de akademiska organisationer i Afrika, Asien och Latinamerika som vuxit fram och håller på att utvecklas.The study of economic development in the Global South from a long-term perspective is of increasing importance in the current era of globalization, integration and convergence. This applies both in the Global North and for the growing academic communities in Africa, Asia and Latin America.

The concept of proximity has its origins at the beginning of the years ’90 in France with the studies from the Group of the Dynamics of the Proximity. The importance of the territorial proximity for the development is considered basically through studies centred in the analysis of industrial dynamic and innovative environments. Its relationship with the local development in poor rural areas has be

INTRODUCTION: Poliomyelitis is currently a rare disease in developed countries, where only vaccinal strains seem to be in circulation, which replace wild poliovirus. Nevertheless, it is still a serious disease for children in underdeveloped countries of Asia and Africa.PATIENTS AND METHODS: We analysed nine strains of poliovirus type 2 isolated from the faecal matter of patients with vaccine assoc

Novel rotating-cylinder sliding vane rotary compressors (RC-SVRCs) are promising machines in energy conversion systems due to extremely low friction. However, three-dimensional visual investigations on geometrical optimizations of RC-SVRCs are highly limited. Besides, most flow mechanisms and leakage flow affected by geometric structures have not been fully revealed yet. Therefore, the sliding van
