Kompetensportalen, Lucat, Lupin, Lubas och LUCRIS. Det är namnen på några av Lunds universitets administrativa system. Men det är också namnet på fem nya bakteriofager som nyligen upptäckts i dammarna i Botaniska trädgården vid Lunds universitet. Bakteriofager – ofta förkortade till fager – är virus som angriper bakterier. Fager är häpnadsväckande effektiva mördare – dessa små virus utplånar 20 pr

I ett projekt vid Lunds universitet tränas en AI-modell till att hitta de bröstcancerpatienter som kan avstå ingrepp i armhålan. Modellen analyserar tidigare outnyttjad information i mammografibilder, och ringar med hög träffsäkerhet in den individuella risken för metastaser i armhålan. I en nyligen avslutad studie visar modellen att drygt 40 procent av dagens armhåleingrepp skulle kunna undvikas.

Årets största anslag från IngaBritt och Arne Lundbergs forskningsstiftelse går till Vinay S Swaminathan vid Lunds universitet. Han erhåller fem miljoner kronor för sin forskning om hur frisk bröstvävnad utvecklas till tumörer och sprider sig. Vinay S Swaminathans forskargrupp har utvecklat en 3D-modell som efterliknar tumörens mikromiljö i laboratoriet. Tekniken ger nya möjligheter att förstå sjuk

Nya resultat från en stor registerstudie visar på ett tydligt samband mellan urinvägsinfektion (UVI) hos personer över 50 och olika slags urinvägs- och gynekologisk cancer. - Resultaten tyder på att urinvägsinfektion i denna åldersgrupp kan vara en indikation för cancer, säger Filip Jansåker, men understryker att de allra flesta som drabbas av infektionen inte har cancer. UVI är en väldigt vanlig

Nyblivna mammor uttrycker att de känner sig ”lämnade vind för våg” efter förlossningen. Eftervården är ett erkänt eftersatt område inom vårdkedjan vid barnafödande. Bilden bekräftas av Socialstyrelsens rekommendationer att eftervården behöver förstärkas. En studie ledd från Lunds universitet har undersökt vad kvinnorna själva har behov av. I Sverige har eftervården vid förlossning förändrats avsev

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

Can you tell me a little about your research area?I research diseases and conditions of the hip joint that affect children but can also cause pain and osteoarthritis in adulthood. One example is hip dysplasia, where the acetabulum does not sufficiently cover the femoral head.

What do human remains really have to do with a museum? When Lund University closed the Department of Anatomy of 1995, its collection of human remains was transferred to the Historical Museum. Now, the museum wants to conduct a proper review of the collection in order to communicate more about it. Human remains in a museum context awaken many feelings. As recently as last year, Lund University hand
