The Lund Stem Cell Center at Lund University has relaunched its Professional Development Program (PDP), which provides PhD students support beyond research, equipping them with the personal and professional skills essential for long-term career success. While most doctoral programs focus on scientific expertise, the PDP broadens that approach by equipping students with skills for career growth, se
Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Som diagnos är diabetesformen MODY ovanlig, patienterna får ofta en annan vanligare diabetesdiagnos och andra är odiagnostiserade. Eftersom behandlingen skiljer sig åt vid de olika MODY-formerna är rätt diagnos viktig. Här en omarbetad och förkortad text som ST-läkaren Jonas Bengtsson vid labmedicin, klinisk kemi i

Researchers from Lund University, led by Dr. Laurent Roybon, are working to further define underlying mechanisms involved in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s Disease and Multiple System Atrophy. Their latest discovery, published in PNAS, could be used to devise novel therapeutic approaches to treat neurodegenerative diseases such as these, as well as other synucleiopathies in the fu
Studies of the gut microbiota can provide new knowledge about human health and how the risk of developing various diseases is affected. Marju Orho-Melander at Lund University is one of the authors of two new articles in Nature Genetics which have discovered several new gene variants in the human genome which may influence which bacteria are found in the gut. Some of the new gene variants can be li

Physics researchers at Lund University in Sweden recently succeeded in constructing small solar radiation-collecting antennas – nanowires – using three different materials that are a better match for the solar spectrum compared with today’s silicon solar cells. As the nanowires are light and require little material per unit of area, they are now to be installed for tests on satellites, which are p

New research at Lund University shows that the biological parents’ genes affect the child's insulin function and capacity to regulate blood sugar levels and blood lipids in different ways. Such knowledge may be used to to develop preventive treatments that reduce the child's risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Previous research by diabetes researcher Rashmi Prasad has sh

Professor Marianne Bertrand at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business is the first recipient of the Jan Söderberg Family Prize in Economics and Management. Professor Bertrand will receive the prize and hold a lecture on 12 March in Lund, Sweden. “Marianne Bertrand is one of the world’s most prominent applied micro-economists,” says Fredrik Andersson, dean at Lund University School of E
Artificial intelligence has gone from horror visions on film to a tool in everyone’s pocket. From spelling advice to shopping tips – and now to assigning work and measuring performance. What’s next? We met with organisational researcher Sverre Spoelstra to talk about algorithmic leadership and management. You may not have your boss in an app, yet. But the idea is not as futuristic as it may sound.

Plantering av syntetiskt DNA, biometrisk utpressning av makthavare och genetisk hybridkrigföring. Det är några av de nya risker som har uppstått genom de forskningsframsteg som gjorts inom genetisk teknologi och kan utnyttjas i modern krigföring. Forskare vid Lunds universitet menar att vi behöver identifiera vilka de mest kritiska riskerna är och diskutera hur dessa kan förebyggas. Det internatio
