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

Within third-cycle education, as in the University as a whole, we are all different and as such we need to work according to the different subject conditions of the faculties. At the same time, we are more alike than we sometimes believe and there are advantages to having the same procedures and rules where possible, particularly when we see more interdisciplinary projects crossing departmental an

Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have identified a previously unknown precursor stage of leukemia. The discovery may help explain why an especially aggressive form of blood cancer initiates already during fetal life. When we think of cancer, we usually imagine a disease that develops over many years in adults. But for one particular group of leukemia – acute lymphoblastic leu

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. Reprogramming Cancer Cells into Immune Cells Earlier research by the team showed that three special

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Hospitals should design premises and adapt their infection control routines to a society that no longer has effective antibiotics, and that is vulnerable to fast-spreading global pandemics. This is argued in a new dissertation from Lund University in Sweden. “Many hospitals in Sweden and the world are becoming old and

Fredrik Nilsson successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis on May 10, 2023. For the last four years, Fredrik has explored the use of patient-specific cells in cell replacement therapy for Parkinson's disease to identify strategies to safeguard these transplanted cells from disease-related degeneration. In this interview, he tells us about his findings, their potential implications for future therapies

Kan nya sätt att leverera cytostatika mer precist till tumören minska risken för biverkningar? Det studerar en forskargrupp vid Lunds universitet och de utgår från tumörsjukdomen osteosarkom. I två vetenskapliga artiklar beskriver man ett sätt att med hjälp av cytostatikaladdade mikro- och nanopartiklar leverera läkemedel in i cancerceller, frisätta cytostatikan och därigenom orsaka celldöd hos tu

On 03 March 2023, Jenny Mattsson defended her Ph.D. thesis. With the goal to broaden the availability of antibody-based drugs for patients with cancer and other diseases, she has spent the past several years working to develop new methods that can be used to identify new antibodies and antibody targets. In this interview, we learn more about her research, how she has simultaneously juggled doing a

When we think of dinosaurs, we often imagine majestic giants that ruled the Earth millions of years ago. But even these ancient creatures were not immune to diseases familiar to humans today, such as osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is relatively rare in today’s wild mammals (less than 1%) but is not uncommon in domestic or working animals like dogs and horses, as well as in birds, with a prevalence

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The more reputable the scientific journal, the more expensive it will be to publish an article with Open Access. Research publishers are riding the gravy train, but for the individual researcher the cost often comes as an unpleasant surprise, after they have spent all of their funding.

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

One percent of the world’s population accounts for more than half of the carbon dioxide emissions from passenger air travel. Thus, there is good reason to view air travel in a new light. It is actually an elitist activity, rather than what the aviation industry would like us to believe – that everyone flies. This is claimed by Stefan Gössling at Lund University and Linnaeus University in a new art

In recent decades, the climate in Sweden has become about two degrees warmer on average and this year we have seen an unprecedentedly mild winter and early spring. How is nature responding – animals, insects, plants – to an increasingly mild climate? Researchers in Lund can provide the answer. Among other things, a ne
