Work is slowly starting back up again after a long and much-needed break. Before I turn my attention to what lies ahead, I would like to begin by looking back briefly. At the end of last autumn, I travelled to Chicago, partly to visit my son, who is an exchange student at Illinois Institute of Technology, and partly to visit the University of Chicago to explore potential collaborations. The timing

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers at Lund and Malmö universities in Sweden have measured a biomarker in cell-free blood plasma which can be linked to an overactive stress system in suicidal individuals. This biomarker can hopefully be used in future psychiatric studies. “We don’t expect the marker to be able to predict who will try to comm

Mathematics Professor Kalle Åström studies the future of agriculture with the help of artificial intelligence (AI). He develops mathematical models to optimise harvests and contribute to climate-friendly agriculture. Artificial intelligence and agriculture may seem like two different worlds, but not for Kalle Åström. On the contrary, he sees synergies and is keen to bring the two together. The Pro

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. 15 per cent of the population – almost one in seven Swedes – suffer from digestive problems in the form of bloating, abdominal pain, constipation and diarrhoea. But since these problems are not life-threatening, and the status of the digestive tract is low, medical researchers and funders have shown only moderate inte

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Giving yourself a pat on the back rather than thinking that you should have performed better – self-compassion is about being as friendly and kind to yourself as you would be to a close friend or colleague.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In order to avoid water conflicts and to stimulate food production in sub-Saharan Africa, large-scale land acquisition must be regulated and focus on food production. These are the conclusions of a new doctoral thesis from PhD Emma Johansson. Emma Johansson’s thesis investigates how land use is affected by large-scale

Lundalektorn Joakim Zander blev jurist i Uppsala och doktor i Nederländerna, men författarskapet har han tagit med sig till Lund, hem­staden sedan drygt tio år. Snart har filmatiseringen av spännings­romanen ”Ett ärligt liv” premiär på Netflix. Där utgör Lund både skåde­plats och brottsplats för en juriststudents drömmar och vedermödor.

Looksmaxing. Gigekonomi. Stress över att vara lyckad i andras ögon. Dagens unga vuxna – generation Z – har en utbredd psykisk ohälsa, men saknar kunskap om hur de ska kunna må bättre. Samtidigt brister vården och stödet för gruppen som är i början av vuxenlivet. Det vill forskare i Lund belysa – och ändra på, med hjälp av en e-hälsoapp. I ett år har forskarna kartlagt den psykiska hälsan hos perso

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Utvecklingen av artificiell intelligens, AI, går i snabb takt och gynnar många branscher och stora delar av samhället. Även medborgaren. Men när det kommer till AI inom sjukvården är många svenskar skeptiska. Den 20 maj hölls ett seminarium i Lund där frågor om AI, maskininlärning och framtida forskningsmöjligheter

Modern RNA-sekvensering kan ge bröstcancervården värdefulla ledtrådar och matcha enskilda patienter till rätt behandling – utifrån tumörens unika egenskaper och genuttryck. I en aktuell studie har data och genuttryck från drygt 7 700 cancertumörer använts för att utveckla vässade analysmodeller av RNA-sekvenseringen; en analys av ett enskilt vävnadsprov kan beskriva flera av tumörens egenskaper.

In Sweden, class actions - such as the ongoing Aurora case, where 300 young people are suing the government for failing to implement climate policies - are rare. Too rare, according to the sociologist of law Michael Molavi. He argues that Sweden would benefit from more class actions and that the state should finance the legal costs. On 21 March, Nacka District Court announced that the youth group

An international consensus report on diabetes identifies the potential for diabetes screening, better classification of type 2 diabetes, and biomarkers that can predict cardiovascular disease. The report also highlights that more evidence is needed before it is possible to provide individualised treatment to all patients. The report is based on a large collaboration between 28 universities worldwi

Almost half of all dementia cases can be attributed to risk factors that we potentially can influence ourselves, such as smoking and high blood pressure. A new study from Lund University shows which risk factors are associated with two of our most common causes of dementia – Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia.

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Autoantikroppar som föregår typ 1 diabetes går att mäta när som helst i livet. Genom att titta på antalet antikroppar, vilka de är och i hur höga nivåer de finns, kan man tillsammans med den genetiska profilen göra en bedömning av risken för en individ att insjukna i typ 1 diabetes. Här skriver Cecilia Andersson, fo
