I mitten av december firas varje år forskningsupptäckter under nobelfestligheterna i Stockholm. Två sådana upptäckter vävs samman i lundaforskarna Peter Zygmunts och Pontus Gourdons gemensamma arbete. Det handlar om en högupplöst avbildningsteknik som hjälper forskarna att kartlägga atomer i kroppen och kunskap om hur cellens jonkanaler regleras. (INTERVJU). Det är snudd på hissnande att forskare

Jul och nyår är familjens högtider med glädje, fest, omtanke och gemenskap. Men för många kan det istället innebära en tid av ensamhet, ekonomisk utsatthet och ökad risk för alkohol- och spelberoende. Men det finns hjälp att få mot beroendesjukdomar. Det visar inte minst en ny forskningsstudie om spelberoende. Rent evolutionärt har hjärnans belöningssystem haft till uppgift att motivera oss att gö

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. To understand what happens in the brain when Alzheimer's disease develops, researchers need to be able to study the molecular structures in the neurons affected by Alzheimer's disease. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have tested a new imaging method for this purpose. The research is published in the journal A

A large study led by Lund University in Sweden has identified a protein in the blood that could predict type 2 diabetes up to nineteen years before the onset of the disease. The study is published in Nature Communications. Type 2 diabetes is a growing global epidemic, with 6% of the world population suffering from the disease. However, the risk of developing type 2 diabetes can be greatly reduced

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Researchers have successfully mapped the entire genome of the Eurasian spruce bark beetle. The breakthrough paves the way for new research into bark beetles and better prospects for effective pest control of a species that can destroy more than 100 million cubic metres of spruce forest during a single year in Europe a

Det menar en internationell forskargrupp som granskat reformförslaget. Varken miljöskydd eller klimatmål förbättras, snarare tvärtom, säger Dagmar Clough, ekolog vid Lunds universitet och en av dem som står bakom studien. I höst börjar den sista förhandlingsr

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Idag kräver den goda, snabba akademiska karriären många resor med ett högt koldioxidutsläpp. Hållbarhetsforskaren Hervé Corvellec menar att LU borde se över sitt meriteringssystem som en följd av detta. Och även fundera över studenternas flygresor. – Idag är det oreflekterat inbakat vid rekryteringar att det ger kva

Narkosgaser är potenta växthusgaser vars totala globala påverkan hittills varit okänd. Nu publiceras en studie i The Lancet Planetary Health ledd från Lunds universitet som visar att utsläppet från växthusgaser från narkosgaser minskar med 27 procent över de senaste tio åren. Genom att ersätta den narkosgas som har störst klimatpåverkan, hade klimatpåverkan från narkosgaser kunnat minska med ytter

Researchers have succeeded in converting human skin cells into blood stem cells in an international collaboration project. “This is a first step on the way to generating fully functional blood stem cells in a petri dish which, in the future, could be transplanted into patients with blood diseases”, says Filipe Pereira, the researcher from Lund University in Sweden who led the study now published i

Lund Stem Cell Center researchers from Lund University and Skåne University Hospital have uncovered a way to impair the growth and progression of glioblastoma tumor cells - the most aggressive form of brain cancer. The study, published in Molecular Cancer Therapeutics, shows it is possible to transform these cancer cells into cells that resemble normal, mature astrocytes. Nearly half of all cancer

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The ability of global ecosystems to absorb carbon dioxide is regulated to a large extent by the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus. With lower plant access to these nutrients, greater volumes of carbon dioxide stays in the atmosphere, instead of being absorbed by forests and other ecosystems. A new study has now charte

Visual dysfunction is increasingly recognized as a feature of Alzheimer's disease. Yet the molecular basis of retinal changes had remained poorly defined, and no previous study has compared retinal and brain proteomes from the same individuals. Now, a study from MultiPark has mapped the proteins that are altered in the disease. The discoveries were recently published in Acta Neuropathologica. In a
