Det menar rättssociologen Ana Maria Vargas som gjort en omfattande studie bland gatuförsäljare och cykelrikshaförare i Bogotá. Ungefär 60 procent av jordens befolkning i arbetsför ålder arbetar utanför den formella ekonomin; de betalar ingen skatt och

The interactions between molecules are the foundation of life and how we treat diseases using medicinal drugs. But what does it actually look like when a protein meets another molecule and binds to it? A new research project that has been awarded EUR 8.7 million by the European Research Council now aims to shed light on this elusive process. The research team consists of researchers from Lund Univ

As resistance to existing antibiotics increases, new approaches to serious bacterial infections are needed. Now researchers at Lund University in Sweden, together with colleagues at the University of Massachusetts Medical School (UMMS) in the US, have investigated one such alternative. “We were able to show that a tailor-made protein which previously worked against various kinds of Gram-negative b

Researchers from Lund University in Sweden have discovered higher levels of immune proteins in the blood before and after an epileptic seizure. The possible biomarkers can be identified using a simple blood test. Diagnosing epilepsy is currently resource intensive, and distinguishing it from other conditions can be challenging.
