Researchers at the Lund Stem Cell Center, Lund University, have discovered that a population of B cells formed shortly after birth store long-term immune memory and, in mice, can give rise to leukemia much later in life. Published in Cell Reports, the findings reveal how immune events at the very beginning of life can leave lasting biological imprints, linking early development to disease in old a

The forest is currently at the centre of an intense debate. It concerns, in simplified terms, which climate benefits the forest can provide, either by sequestering carbon in standing forest, or by being used to substitute fossil fuels and fossil-intensive materials. In a new literature review from the Centre for Environmental and Climate Science (CEC) at Lund University in Sweden, Markku Rummukain

Lund Stem Cell Center researchers from Lund University and Skåne University Hospital have uncovered a way to impair the growth and progression of glioblastoma tumor cells - the most aggressive form of brain cancer. The study, published in Molecular Cancer Therapeutics, shows it is possible to transform these cancer cells into cells that resemble normal, mature astrocytes. Nearly half of all cancer

The headlines about non-functioning security alarms, about cameras and soon also AI in the home service, are getting more and more. But what happens when the welfare technology does not work? Next year, a new research project will be launched which will investigate this very thing. The CASE researchers, associate professors Gunilla Carlsson, Connie Lethin and Agneta Malmgren Fänge, have in previou

Earlier this fall, Milda Pucetaite was one of the 400 European researchers to receive an ERC Starting Grant for her project “Tracing single-cell scale chemical signalling between interacting soil fungi". As Milda is a member of BECC, we were curious to know a little bit more about her grant. The ERC Starting Grant is intended for early-career researchers and the only selection criterion is scienti

Underground fungi play a central role in the fragile ecosystems of atoll islands. The unique symbiotic relationship between these fungi and rainforest trees is vital for the restoration of nature and ultimately for the survival of coral reefs. New research shows how fungi help nutrients to move between the forest and the sea. Palmyra Atoll is a remote and uninhabited cluster of small islands halfw
