This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The fight against COVID-19 continues. In Lund, researchers have been awarded a large Vinnova grant to identify a compound that could be used to prevent viral infection, and thus save lives. The project is a co-operation between preclinical, clinical researchers and a company, an efficient way for creating synergies in

Det händer mycket nu inom universitetets arbetsmiljö- och likavillkorsarbete. Det är dags att välja skyddsombud - en mycket viktig funktion. Vi uppmärksammar också att det är 150 år sedan kvinnor fick rätt att studera på universitet och att uppslutningen var stor när LU för första gången deltog i pride. Ta chansen och bli skyddsombud! Ta chansen att nominera dig själv eller en kollega till denna m

By utilising quantum mechanics, a quantum computer can solve computational problems that today's supercomputers cannot. But there are problems. As the circuits in quantum computers get bigger, they become more difficult to control. Researchers have demonstrated a new way to construct quantum circuits for individual light particles. This could enable larger and more complex circuits – crucial to un

Filipe Pereira och hans forskarteam har utvecklat ett recept på hur cancerceller kan omprogrammeras till immunsystemets vaktposter, dendritceller. Dessa behövs för att kickstarta och förbättra kroppens förmåga att bekämpa cancer. Metoden är en lovande strategi för cancerbehandling och projektet som nu tilldelas anslag har som mål att konstruera själva ”fordonet” som ska leverera instruktionen som

Lund Stem Cell Center provides researchers with access to core facilities equipped with the latest technologies, specialist expertise and instruction on the use of the different equipment. Over time these facilities have evolved to form the well-developed technological infrastructure which exists today. Earlier this year, the Center, in partnership with MultiPark, took the next step in the evoluti

Researcher Emma Hammarlund realized that geological measurement methods can also be used for medical purposes. With a simple hair sample, she hopes to find cancer at an early stage. First in the study are prostate cancer and breast cancer. Now her project has been selected for the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences' (IVA) 100 list. The list also includes eight other research projects fr

Using fishing-rods laced with dental floss and the Nobel-prize winning Crispr-Cas9 gene-editing technology, Nathalie Feiner wants to reveal some of the deepest mysteries of evolution. At the root of it all: a heartfelt love of lizards. Lying on a thin branch in the terrarium on Nathalie Feiner’s desk in the Department of Biology is a grey-speckled anolis lizard, looking out over the empty coffee c

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have succeeded in developing a simple hydrocarbon molecule with a logic gate function, similar to that in transistors, in a single molecule. The discovery could make electric components on a molecular scale possible in the future. The results are published in Nature Communications. Manufacturing very small components is an important challenge in both resear

When the late summer sun falls over Ireland’s Wicklow Mountains, the slopes turn purple with blooming heather. Honeybees are moved to the heathlands for the sought-after heather honey, but their presence affects wild bumblebees. An Irish-Swedish research team has shown in a new study that wild bumblebees change their behaviour and are smaller in size when the number of beehives increases. The rese

What happens when a group of people share a big interest, want to develop this, and spread it further? Well, if this group consists of PhD students, master students, teachers and researchers at LUSEM really good things can happen, as the establishment of a new Data Science Lab.

Idag saknas effektiv läkemedelsbehandling mot svår kronisk andnöd. Ibland behandlar vården med opioidpreparat såsom morfin för att lindra symtomen, men evidensen har varit bristande för om detta hjälper. I en randomiserad fas 3-studie som forskare vid Lunds universitet och ett forskningsnätverk i Australien genomfört, såg man att morfin inte minskade andnöden hos patienterna. Studien publiceras i

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,

Far och son plockade burkar, tiggde och frös i ett tält. Nu jobbar de båda i vårt restaurangkök. Marian Hristov är 26 och anstränger sig för att inte tänka på hur det var då. När han samlade pantburkar, tiggde och bodde i ett tält. – Det var inte bra, säger han på fin svenska när vi ses i värmen på Stamstället i Forum Medicum, efter avslutat lunchpass. – Jag är ganska blyg, det var jobbigt.
