Betydligt lägre risk har exempelvis sjukgymnaster, civilingenjörer och lärare. Det visar en undersökning av nästan 4,6 miljoner yrkesverksamma i Sverige som forskare vid Karolinska institutet har gjort

Bostaden är en plats där vi spenderar mycket tid och den har visat sig ha stor betydelse för vår hälsa. Till exempel har forskning visat att boendet är viktigt för livstillfredställelse och välbefinnande för den åldrande befolkningen. Parkinsons sjukdom, som oftast diagnostiseras i 55- till 65 årsåldern, är en av de vanligaste neurodegenerativa sjukdomarna; trots det saknas det kunskap om många bo

Congratulation to Wolfgang Knecht and his collaborators, who have been awarded a grant for a LINXS theme initiative titled Pandemics and Alertness (PandA)! The theme is a “spin-off” from the Pandemics and Alertness the thematic collaboration initiative at Lund University, with a deeper focus on advancing understaning of viruses and strengthening crisis preparedness. The themes want to achieve an i

The aim of this workshop is to provide an overview of research-based policy briefs, including formatting and writing conventions, identifying and disseminating to an audience, and evaluating their impact. The workshop is a joint collaboration with the LU Agenda 2030 Graduate School and the Pufendorf Institute Advanced Study Group "Wildfires in the Anthropocene". Researchers are increasingly encour

Throughout life, our lungs are vital organs. For newborns as well as for elderly patients, there is a need for safe and continuous lung monitoring in the healthcare. Some of today's common methods of examining the lungs, such as X-rays and computed tomography are limiting since they can not be applied continuously and carry ionizing radiation. A new technology for clinical lung monitoring is now o

One result of climate change is that spring is arriving earlier. However, migratory birds are not keeping up with these developments and arrive too late for the peak in food availability when it is time for breeding. By getting the birds to fly a little further north, researchers in Lund, Sweden, and the Netherlands have observed that these birds can give their chicks a better start in life. Globa

The brain's big-eating immune cells can slow down the progression of Alzheimer's disease. This is shown by a study that is now published in Nature Aging. The brain's own immune cells are called microglia and are found in the central nervous system. They are big eaters that kill viruses, damaged cells and infectious agents they come across. It has long been known that microglial cells can be activa

A new study have identified which blood tests are best at detecting Alzheimer’s disease during the earliest stages, and also another blood test that is optimal for detecting relevant treatment effects. These findings will speed up the development of new therapies that can slow down the disease progression. The article was originally published as a press release from the Sahlgrenska Academy, Univer

From the Vice-Chancellor’s blog: For several years, Lund University and many other stakeholders within the sector and beyond have been calling on the Government to alter and simplify immigration legislation and its regulations for researchers and doctoral students. Sweden and its universities are competing in a highly competitive international study and labour market, and there have been far too m

Symptoms for patients with the gastrointestinal disease IBS improved as much by eating less sugar and starch as for those who followed FODMAP – the diet currently recommended to patients. The results, presented in a new study from Lund University in Sweden, also show that weight loss is greater and sugar cravings are reduced among those who follow the starch and sucrose-reduced diet.

Each year, one in four women suffers from bacterial vaginosis, something that is currently treated with antibiotics. However, recently a gentler, antibiotic-free alternative has been authorised for sale in the EU. The chance discovery behind the innovation was made by a group of researchers from Lund University in Sweden. Stinging, itching and odorous vaginal discharge is a common and a stigmatise

Textile – a growing sustainability challengeWe are buying more clothes than ever before, but there is still no efficient system to close the material loop.

Cell replacement therapy has long been a hope for patients with Parkinson’s disease and efforts are on their way to use stem cell derived-dopaminergic neurons in clinical trials. On 14 October, Jessica Giacomoni defends her thesis. Her project about the direct conversion of human glial cells into therapeutic neurons directly within the brain has the ultimate goal to become an alternative to cell t
