Surprise discovery leads to treatment for common infection

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

Geopolitics and Diplomacy in the Wake of the Gaza War

The war in Gaza is testing alliances and shaking up politics, both globally and regionally. What does this mean for the West's relationship with the Middle East? How are inter-regional dynamics affected? And what is the impact of the war in Israel? Read an interview with Karin Aggestam, Political Scientist and Director of the Centre for Advanced Middle Eastern Studies. What geopolitical consequenc

New research points out key gaps in EU’s largest funding scheme, the Common Agricultural Policy

Properly managed, the agricultural sector in Europe can contribute to many of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by improving food security, reducing poverty and enhancing biodiversity. But new research shows that indicators to measure key SDGs such as health and equality are entirely missing from the EU’s most expensive funding scheme. – What gets measured, gets managed. Fro

One person’s workplace, another’s home

How long does it take to comfort someone? Does an egg need to be fried rather than boiled? LUM invited home care researchers from the School of Social Work and the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) for a conversation. They are meeting for the first time; their discussions cover stress, responsibility and participation. Their common goal is better home care, but they approach the issue from different pe

How vulnerable are we in a pandemic and who is actually the hardest hit?

Many people feel mentally unwell during the pandemic, especially, it seems, those who are already exposed to socio-economic inequalities. But who really suffers the most when restrictions, loneliness, depression have become commonplace? Researchers from Lund University have tried to find out in a cross-sectional study where young adults are identified as a particularly vulnerable group. After more

Blodfettsprofil förbättrar riskbedömning av typ 2-diabetes

Med hjälp av lipidomik, en teknik som mäter blodfetternas sammansättning på molekylnivå, och maskininlärning, har forskare vid Lunds universitet identifierat en blodfettsprofil som förbättrar möjligheten att flera år i förväg bedöma risken för att insjukna i typ 2-diabetes. Blodfettsprofilen kan även kopplas till viss kost och graden av fysisk aktivitet. Blod innehåller hundratals olika fettmoleky

Upptäckt visar hur inflammation sprids snabbt i kroppen

De små blåsorna som sitter på cellytan har större betydelse för spridning av inflammation och ämnen till andra delar av kroppen än vad man tidigare känt till. – Resultaten förklarar hur inflammation kan spridas så snabbt och slå mot hela kroppens system som den gör vid sepsis. Kroppen har förmåga att skada sig själv mer än vad bakterierna i sig har, säger Heiko Herwald, professor vid Lunds univers

Integrated recovery during the work day - does it make a difference?

Lina Ejlertsson, a doctoral student in Public Health at Lund University, believes that there is a classic approach to working with and measuring health in workplaces through sick leave rates, productivity and efficiency. – Most often, rehabilitative measures or preventative work are only undertaken after employees become ill. So what happens if you instead integrate various recovery activities int

New budget bill turns reform focus away from higher education

It has been a year since an extensive Research and Innovation Bill was introduced. The Ministry of Education, research funding bodies and higher education institutions are still busy converting it and its initiatives into action. Perhaps this is why the autumn’s budget bill now feels a little thin on ideas and forward-thinking in those parts relating to our sector. In addition, the Government has
