Tidigare forskning från Lunds universitet har visat att diabetes kan delas in i fem olika grupper beroende på hur sjukdomen utvecklar sig. Nu visar en ny studie i Nature Genetics att det även finns genetiska skillnader mellan de olika grupperna. En målsättning med forskningen är att bidra till mer individanpassad behandling av typ 2-diabetes. – Ett viktigt fynd i vår nya studie är att det finns ty

Reconfigurable transistors are key elements in the development of future semiconductors. As conventional transistors approach the limit of how small they can become, more functions in the same number of units will become increasingly important in developing small and energy-efficient circuits for better memories and more powerful computers.
