Hur påverkas föräldrar och barn av att delta i screeningstudier för typ 1-diabetes? Det är en fråga som doktoranden Jessica Melin har undersökt i en doktorsavhandling som läggs fram vid Lunds universitet. Resultaten kan användas för att identifiera de familjer som behöver rätt stöd för att minska deras oro och öka deras nöjdhet med sitt deltagande. Forskare vid Lunds universitets diabetescentrum (

More focus on the institutional environment and less on individual researchers in the assessment of research misconduct – and protection for whistle-blowers should be increased. These are some new points in the revised code of conduct for research integrity – points developed in a process led by Göran Hermerén. The EU Commission is now launching the code as a benchmark for those applying for fundi

The expression “Sweden’s green gold” has a new meaning. Forests are now not only to provide timber and paper – but also save the climate. Chemical engineering researcher Christian Hulteberg has managed to transform a residual product from pulp manufacturing into a liquid that is chemically identical to petrol. The plan is to have Swedish forest fuel available at service stations by 2021. “This is

Astronomic amounts of new digital information about the world, our genetic heritage and our habits are continuously being generated. This information is a goldmine for research – as long as the data can be accessed, stored and analysed. “We have a lot of expertise in the field. More and more areas of Lund University are nearing the threshold for big data as an integral part of research and teachin

Premature babies have a hard time getting the oxygen they need as their lungs are not sufficiently developed. Today you can only use X-rays to see how much air babies’ lungs contain, but, according to research from Lund University in Sweden, in the future, these types of tests could be done using laser light. “Multiple X-ray examinations involve a certain increase in the risk of developing cancer,

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden believe they have found a method that in the future could help people suffering from epilepsy so severe that all current treatment is ineffective. “In mice studies, we succeeded in reducing seizure activity by intervening in an area of the brain that is not the focus of the epileptic seizures, but is directly connected to it through a network of neurons.

Sea urchins lack eyes, but can see with their tentacle-like tube feet instead, previous research has indicated. Now, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have tested their vision in a new study, and shown that while sea urchins have fairly low resolution vision - it is good enough to fulfil their basic needs. “Sea urchins are currently the only animals that have been shown to see without havin

Using magnetically controlled nanoparticles to force tumour cells to ‘commit suicide’ sounds like science fiction, but could be a future part of cancer treatment. “The clever thing about the technique is that we can target selected cells without harming surrounding tissue”, said Professor Erik Renström from Lund University. In brief, the technique involves getting the nanoparticles into a tumour c
