Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the abnormal accumulation and spread of the tau protein in the brain. An international study can now show how tau spreads according to four distinct patterns that lead to different symptoms with different prognoses of the affected individuals. The study was published in Nature Medicine. “In contrast to how we have so far interpreted the spread of tau in the

So say Mats Benner and Freddy Ståhlberg after having reviewed both self-evaluations and assessor reports. The RQ20 Research Quality Evaluation Project is now entering its final phase and, so far, the results are looking good. “But it would be out of the question for us to sit back now just because we’re known globally for our excellence”, says Benner. Together with project coordinator Malin Breden

Chefer lider allt oftare av psykisk ohälsa vilket i sin tur även påverkar organisationernas välmående. Ny forskning pekar på att reflekterande samtal med fokus på chefernas hälsa kan vara en viktig åtgärd för att hantera denna ökande problematik. – Chefer behöver bekräftelse på att deras mående är av stor betydelse för organisationen. Deras roll, med ansvar för verksamheten och övriga medarbetare,

I år är det 20 år sedan Botnia-projektet startade. Det övergipande syftet är att bättre förstå varför krocken mellan våra gener och välfärdssamhället orsakar typ 2 diabetes samt att finna metoder som kan motverka denna process. - Internationellt spelar Botnia-projektet en viktig roll i diabetesforskningen. Inte minst med kartläggningen av riskgener för diabetes, säger David Altshuler, professor vi

Akut myeloisk leukemi (AML) är en av de vanligaste formerna av blodcancer hos vuxna och är associerad med låg överlevnad. I Sverige insjuknar runt 350 personer årligen i denna aggressiva sjukdom som leder till att den normala blodbildningen hämmas. Nu har en forskargrupp vid Lunds universitet identifierat en av de gener som är grunden till att leukemistamcellerna överlever och förökar sig. Studien

Young people in India are often described as a well-educated and progressive force. How does that align with the right-wing populism sweeping through the country? Journalism student Linn Jönsson embarked on a reporting journey to Bombay, delving into religious and political conflicts of present-day India. In the Fall of 2023, Linn Jönsson received the SASNET travel grant for journalism students at

Artisanal interpretation of ceramics from the Bronze Age shows that a nine-year-old child could be a highly skilled artisan. This was one of the discoveries presented in a new thesis from Lund University. The thesis explores how an artisanal perspective can contribute to archaeology by providing new insights into archaeological artefacts. “I have found that even the most simple household receptacl

Up to now, researchers have believed that birds stay at home and altruistically help raise younger siblings because this is the only way to pass on genes when you cannot breed yourself. But this idea is only partially true. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that birds benefit from being helpful because it also increases their chances of reproducing in the future. “The results show t

Social media provides a new environment that makes it possible to carefully edit the image you want to project of yourself. A study from Lund University in Sweden suggests that many people are prepared to pay to ”filter out” unfavorable information. Economists Håkan Holm and Margaret Samahita have investigated how we curate our social image on the web using game theory. Previous studies have been

Long life is common among bird parents that get help with childcare. This finding comes from researchers at the universities of Lund and Oxford who reviewed data from more than 9,000 studies. Being a parent can be tough. In general, animals that care for many offspring die young, at least in species where parents are not helped by others. However, in some species things are different and parents r

The global coronavirus pandemic has hit the tourism industry hard worldwide. Not only that, but it has exposed a lack of resilience to any type of downturn, according to new research from Lund University in Sweden.
