I en översikt av kunskapsläget beskrivs ärftliga och miljömässiga faktorer samt möjligheterna med en tidig upptäckt. - Om vi kan förstå mekanismerna i sjukdomens tidiga stadier hoppas vi kunna förhindra att sjukdomen bryter

Arbetet med att förtäta och utveckla fakultetens lokaler pågår på flera håll, där mycket redan har genomförts. Målet är att använda befintliga ytor bättre och frigöra ytor till forskning och utbildning. Bakom en stor del av arbetet står Hanieh Heidarabadi, processledare vid naturvetenskapliga fakulteten. Arbetet med fakultetens lokaler har vuxit fram över tid, ofta som en konsekvens av andra beslu

Huntingtons sjukdom är ärftlig, genetisk och debuterar vanligtvis i åldersspannet 30 till 50 år. I Sverige har omkring 1000 personer diagnosen och flera tusen lever med risk att insjukna. Ännu fler har en koppling till sjukdomen då symptomen också i hög grad påverkar de anhöriga. Sjukdomen leder till för tidig död och det finns ingen bromsande behandling. Med ökad kännedom om sjukdomens uttryck ka

Lotta Gränse, ophthalmologist and researcher Lund University and Skåne University Hospital has demonstrated that eye drops containing cortisone can prevent the development of the very serious eye disease ROP in infants. This has revolutionised treatment and means that the majority of children in Sweden’s Southern Healthcare Region with severe ROP do not need conventional treatment under anaesthesi

Tropical rainforests have long been considered the Earth’s lungs, sequestering large amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and thereby slowing down the increasing greenhouse effect and associated human-made climate change. Scientists in a global research project now show that the vast extensions of semi-arid landscapes occupying the transition zone between rainforest and desert dominate th

The headlines about non-functioning security alarms, about cameras and soon also AI in the home service, are getting more and more. But what happens when the welfare technology does not work? Next year, a new research project will be launched which will investigate this very thing. The CASE researchers, associate professors Gunilla Carlsson, Connie Lethin and Agneta Malmgren Fänge, have in previou

Using a supercomputer simulation, a research team at Lund University in Sweden has succeeded in following the development of a galaxy over a span of 13.8 billion years. The study shows how, due to interstellar frontal collisions, young and chaotic galaxies over time mature into spiral galaxies such as the Milky Way. Soon after the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago, the Universe was an unruly place.

New findings from Jezero crater reveal how bedrock formed deep within Mars' crust was uplifted, submerged under water in a lake and became altered. The results provide a new piece of the puzzle in understanding the long geologic history of our red neighbour planet. Since NASA's Perseverance rover landed on Mars' red dusty surface in February 2021, it has collected a wealth of valuable data. As the

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. How can images show that the world we live in is being subjected to ongoing climate change? This is the research question being considered by Adam Brenthel, a doctoral student in art history. He has studied researchers’ attempts to translate their findings into images to better communicate them to the general public.

Is it possible to know exactly where to point a microscope in order to capture the precise moment a bacterium or a virus infects a cell? In order to take high resolution microscopic images of living biological material, you need to know exactly where to point the microscope. Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have now developed a software solution for smart, data-driven microscopy, which mak

It is always exciting to move into a new student apartment. You might think that all student apartments look pretty much the same, both in terms of layout and interior design, but that is far from the truth. At Furutorpsgatan student accommodation, Ellen Tössberg lives in a one-bedroom apartment of twenty square meters. The apartment may be small, but it has a lot of personality. When I enter Elle

On 1 July, a pilot project for a new building supervisor organisation within the faculty started. The project, which will run until December 2025, will provide proposals for management and structure for a new building supervisor model for the faculty's departments in Lund. The background to the pilot project is a need for clarity and coordination regarding the physical work environment, fire prote

We follow up our systematic work environment management every year. This year’s follow-up paints an overall picture that I think is worth pausing to consider. I can see a positive shift in the way we discuss and address work environment issues. Many people have been involved in this development, and I would therefore like to take this opportunity to encourage everyone to take pride in this year’s

Many of the University’s staff members state that they seldom or never use AI at work, according to a survey conducted by the Ad Hoc Group. As previously mentioned in LU News, a questionnaire on the use of AI was sent to a random selection of technical and administrative (TA) staff at the University. The survey was conducted within the framework of the University’s digitalisation and AI initiative
