In a study led by Lund University and the Amsterdam University Medical Center, researchers used PET to analyse aggregates of tau pathology in more than 12,000 people from all over the world. The study – the largest ever of its kind – examines the connection between genetic predisposition, gender and age in relation to tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. The study is published in Nature Neuroscie

Delving into the realm where light and matter converge, Mattias Bertolino's embarks on a theoretical exploration of photoionization. Focusing on multiphoton ionization of noble gas atoms, using a mixture of extreme-ultraviolet and infrared light, he explores the intricate interplay between light and matter. He aims to improve our understanding of the fundamental interactions between light and matt

The construction of a dam in Ethiopia could solve many problems for the growing population along the Nile. However, when the construction of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam began, it was met with warmongering from countries downstream. Egypt in particular felt threatened by the dam, which would regulate the Nile, the artery that runs through the heart of the country. “From a scientific perspec

The results of an observational study from Lund University in Sweden are clear: up to the age of two, a more fibre-rich diet seems to reduce the risk of coeliac disease. A particularly clear link was seen when children had eaten fibre-rich foods before the age of one. “This is the first time the risk of coeliac disease has been studied based on fibre in children’s diets. But a clinical trial is al

Facts and research must carry more weight when planning the greening of cities in the future. A new research article calls for a paradigm shift – from 'arbitrary decisions' to more evidence-based urban planning, where urban nature is managed as a resource for both people and biodiversity. Biodiversity is under pressure and many species are at risk of disappearing due to human activity. Research sh

Many might assume that we are powerless in the face of ongoing sea-level rise, and that the risk of flooding is inevitable near the coast. However, how governments choose to develop coastal regions is affecting exposure to flooding more than climate threats, according to a new study. The research analyses flood risk scenarios in China’s coastal zone from 2020 all the way until 2100. Across the wor
