New advanced therapies can alleviate or cure chronic diseases. But medical progress raises the question of how rights should be protected and balanced, according to Jessica Almqvist, professor in international law and human rights, who conducts research on gene therapies. With advanced therapies, doctors can treat or prevent serious diseases. Gene therapies are tailor-made and individualised. The

Carys Egan-Wyer, researcher in Consumer Culture, believes that in some ways leisure time has become a type of work. Showing off the perfect meals, gardens and jogging sessions also says something about us and our time. You probably know what it

Martino Avallone spent the past four years developing tools for mapping gene expression and proteins in the brain to investigate basic biological questions and to elucidate the molecular mysteries contributing to Parkinson’s disease. On 29 September, he defends his thesis work done in the Molecular Neuromodulation research group. Here, he explains the impact these tools will hopefully have in scie

”Engelska är som en hinna mot verkligheten”. Citatet kommer från en lärare vid ett svenskt lärosäte och beskriver lärarens upplevelse av att undervisa svenska studenter på engelska. – I dag saknas ofta pedagogiska anledningar till varför en viss kurs på grundnivån ges på engelska, säger Peter Svensson, universitets­lektor i företagsekonomi vid Ekonomihögskolan.

Deeper relationships with colleagues we were already close with, while others drifted further away. During the pandemic, spontaneous meetings decreased, and we created social filter bubbles. This is shown by a study from Lund University in Sweden that investigated how we managed our work relationships during the Covid-19 pandemic. During the pandemic, many colleagues were reduced to tiny digital f

Economic conditions influence whether and when people choose to have children. A new report from the Swedish government inquiry A Future with Children, led by LUSEM economist Åsa Hansson, shows how financial risks – particularly for women – may be contributing to declining birth rates. Fewer children are being born in Sweden, and economic conditions may play a larger role than previously assumed.

A considerable reduction in the availability of electricity is expected this winter. If the electricity available is less than the demand for electricity, this results in what is known as a power shortfall. This could lead to short power cuts at the University. There is now a Vice-Chancellor’s decision that clarifies duties and responsibilities within the University in the event of a power shortfa

De nya blodproven för att diagnostisera Alzheimers sjukdom ger allt bättre möjligheter till tidig diagnos, men en utmaning är att markörerna som mäts förändras långt innan symtom utvecklas. Forskning ledd från Lunds universitet visar nu att en tidigare inte använd blodmarkör kan, när den kombineras med dagens blodmarkörer, betydligt minska risken för att personer får missvisande besked om sjukdom.

Science should be able to be reproduced, but in reality, this is a step that is often overlooked. Researcher Burak Tunca at Lund University School of Economics and Management sees several possible measures that could make research better – and more open. “Researchers should always pre-register their studies and be open with their data. That way we can avoid bias and hypotheses being changed during
