Forskaren Emma Hammarlund insåg att geologiska mätmetoder även kan användas i medicinskt syfte. Med ett enkelt prov på hårstrån, hoppas hon kunna hitta cancer i ett tidigt skede. Först ut i studien är prostatacancer och bröstcancer. Nu har hennes projekt valts ut till Kungliga ingenjörsvetenskapsakademins (IVA) 100-lista. På listan finns även åtta andra forskningsprojekt från Lunds universitet, va

Ett internationellt forskarsamarbete lett från Lunds universitet visar hur magnesium tar sig in och ut genom cellmembranet. Magnesium är en livsviktig mineral som påverkar en rad biologiska processer i kroppen. Ämnet har bland annat betydelse för att cellernas energikraftverk, mitokondrierna, ska kunna producera och tillgodogöra sig kroppens energimolekyl, ATP.  När mitokondrierna inte fungerar ka

I en studie som publicerats i Nature Medicine visar forskare att ett blodprov, som inom kort blir tillgängligt i USA, är lika träffsäkert – och i vissa fall överlägset – ryggvätskeprov. – Vi hoppas på att liknande test kommer att kunna användas i sjukvården i Sverige innan årets slut, säger Oskar Hansson, professor i neurologi vid Lunds universitet och en av forskarna bakom den internationella stu

Ett interaktivt digitalt system för att kontrollera blodtrycket gör att fler får ett kontrollerat blodtryck. Det visar distriktsläkaren Ulrika Andersson i sin avhandling vid Lunds universitet. Drygt 900 patienter vid 31 vårdcentraler i södra Sverige har deltagit i studien. Samtliga var redan patienter och behandlades för högt blodtryck. Högt blodtryck är en folksjukdom som ungefär varannan person

Neuroblastom är en tumörsjukdom som främst drabbar små barn. Överlevnaden är den lägsta av alla barncancerformer. Nu har en forskargrupp vid Lunds universitet upptäckt att en specifik gen är kopplad till sämre prognos. Studien publiceras i tidskriften Science Advances. Varje år insjuknar runt tjugo barn i Sverige i tumörsjukdomen neuroblastom. Tumörerna växer i det sympatiska nervsystemet som börj

Innovation och framgångsrika lärosäten går hand i hand. På rak arm är det svårt att komma på något välrenommerat universitet som inte är duktig på innovationsfrågor. Vid Lunds universitet har vi under lång tid arbetat med innovationsfrågor på många olika sätt, inte minst vad gäller forskningsresultat som i sin tur resulterat i företag i form av start-ups. Många av dessa företag har även kunnat ta

Popular Science SummaryWe are all familiar with the idea that living organisms are made of atoms and molecules. But not everyone knows that one of those molecules that are crucial for our lives are proteins. And no, they aren’t just something we have to eat. Proteins are an essential molecule which form our cells, together with fat, sugars, and nucleic acids. Proteins are the workforce of the cell

I took part in two interesting seminars a few weeks ago. The first was entitled “The academic book stands firm: Why a leading university needs its own Press in turbulent times”. The other seminar focused on how to apply for and obtain grants from the European Research Council (ERC). The seminar on how to write and publish academic books commendably highlighted the importance of books in the conduc

The clothing industry poses a sustainability challenge, and whilst the circular economy may be the solution, it is difficult to bring about a transition that suits consumers. A recently completed research project investigated consumers’ attitudes towards circular fashion consumption and the barriers to making the transition. Today’s fashion industry faces several sustainability challenges. Fast fa
