The winter season virus has struck – and covid-19 is still part of everyday life. But unlike during the pandemic, we now know more about how the virus is spread through the air we breathe. Research results from Malin Alsved and Jakob Löndahl show that it only takes a few minutes in the same room as an infected person to catch the virus. The aerosol researchers at LTH are behind the study, in which

Ludwig Schmiderer has studied how to overcome delivery challenges in stem cell biology with nanotechnology. In this interview, he tells us about his research and generative art. What have you been working with during your PhD studies? At the beginning of my PhD, I was trying to reengineer the CRISPR/Cas9 system to make it work in mitochondria instead of nucleus. The project started off quite well

“It's an amazing feeling to see your research put to practical use in the real world," explains Magnus Gäfvert, new Innovation Developer at LU Innovation who works with researchers at LTH. After having been co-founder and CEO of the software company Modelon, which is based on LTH research, he has now returned to Lund University. Now he wants to help the next generation of researchers transform the

In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the “recipe” for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University have now created a library of the 400 factors needed for reprogramming and have begun the work of finding the right combination – the recipe – for each type of immune cell. Our immune system consists of different typ

Isolation is a major problem for many in Academia. To counteract this among researchers and doctoral students alike, the working group for diversity, equality and inclusion (DEI) within the Lund Stem Cell Center invited an expert in the field to Lund, earlier this spring. If we foster a greater sense of belonging, we can boost feelings of safety and connection, ultimately leading to improvements i

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A new study from Lund University in Sweden increases knowledge of how boundaries and barriers are maintained between different species in the animal world. According to theory, crosses between two species, known as hybrids, may not survive encounters with natural predators to the same degree as their parents. Now, res

Researchers at Lund University are developing a new type of gene therapy that reprograms cancer cells within tumors into immune cells that can help the immune system fight cancer. Their approach, now published in the journal Science, could lead to more effective treatments for hard-to-treat cancers.

Brist på livsmiljöer och klimatförändringen - parametrar som forskare vet påverkar antalet pollinatörer. Men hur mycket påverkar de och vad mer bidrar till att bin och humlor blir en allt ovanligare syn i landskapet? Det har Maria Blasi i Romero försökt ta reda på i sin avhandling som presenteras den 26:e november. Ett säkert vårtecken är de smörgula rapsfält som varje vår breder ut sig som ett tä

Kalhyggen anses ofta vara negativa för den biologiska mångfalden, varför hyggesfritt skogsbruk diskuteras som ett mer gynnsamt alternativ. Men kan det vara så att kalhyggen – med rätt förvaltning i ett landskapsperspektiv – skulle kunna gynna vissa arter? På senare tid har det blivit allt vanligare att hitta fåglar och dagfjärilar på kalhyggen, arter som normalt trivs på exempelvis slåttermarker o

Just over two weeks after the UN climate summit in Egypt, the leaders of the world’s countries are meeting again, this time to address another acute crisis facing humanity – the loss of biodiversity. The issue is less well-known than the climate crisis and no framework corresponding to the Paris agreement is in place – something that many people hope the December summit in Montreal will rectify.

Långflyttande fåglar som flyger flera dagar i sträck skiftar höjd under dygnet, ett beteende som hittills inte har gått att förklara. Men nu är forskare i Lund ett steg närmare gåtans lösning. Mycket tyder på att djuren stiger till extrema höjder dagtid för att kyla ner sig. Tidigare studier har visat att dubbelbeckasiner och trastsångare – två långflyttande fåglar som övervintrar söder om Sahara
