Accumulation of the substance amyloid beta in the brain impairs the memory and cognitive ability in people with Alzheimer’s. New findings from Lund University in Sweden show that the cause of amyloid beta pathology might be more versatile than previously known. Researchers believe that these new findings may be of significance to the development of new medications. The accumulation of the protein

Lund University is hiring 45 new assistant professors and visiting professors this spring. The initiative, which involves just over SEK 30 million in university-wide funding, represents a significant boost to operations – not least at the Faculty of Social Sciences, which is welcoming nine of the new recruits. The number of applications for Lund University’s international recruitment drive was hig

The region is warming faster than anywhere else on Earth and its polar bears and melting glaciers have become key symbols of climate change. But the Arctic, it seems, is not as well researched as we think it is. Since the Arctic covers some 14.5 million square kilometers, and conducting research in remote locations is very expensive, time consuming and often dangerous, the result is an extremely u

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. For the first time, researchers have succeeded in creating an iron molecule that can function both as a photocatalyst to produce fuel and in solar cells to produce electricity. The results indicate that the iron molecule could replace the more expensive and rarer metals used today. Some photocatalysts and solar cells

A carnivorous fruit fly living in bubbling African streams may sound like a fever dream. However, with the help of DNA analysis of a pinned insect from a museum in Zurich, researchers have managed to draw an evolutionary map of a mysterious species that has not been seen since 1981. Researchers at Lund University have successfully mapped the genome of one of the world’s most unusual fruit flies -

When researchers at Stem Cell Center investigated how the molecule UM171 works, a molecule used to make blood stem cells multiply, they made an unexpected connection. The results provide new insights into how one of the most common malignant brain tumours in children could be treated in the future. UM171 is a synthetic molecule developed by researchers at Université de Montréal. In stem cell resea

In a major leap forward for preclinical nuclear medicine research at Lund University Bioimaging Centre (LBIC), the IngaBritt and Arne Lundberg Research Foundation has granted 2.6 million SEK to upgrade important equipment at centre’s Preclinical Nuclear Medicine platform. The funds will be used to enhance the positron emission tomography (PET) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)
Using micro-engineered soil models, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have investigated the effect of tiny polystyrene particles on bacteria and fungi. While these nanoplastics reduced both bacterial and fungal growth, the fungus actually managed to “clean up” their surroundings, thereby easing the effect of the plastics. “Plastic waste is a huge global problem.

With the aid of satellite images, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have uncovered unique data on the severe drought that hit Syria between 2007 and 2009. Previously, many politicians and researchers believed that it was decisive for the outbreak of war in 2011. However, the new results indicate that agricultural land had already recovered by 2010.

This year’s Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine recognizes discoveries behind optogenetics. The technique has a long history in Lund neuroscience, including early Parkinson’s disease research involving MultiPark researchers, and is today available through MultiPark-supported research infrastructures. Since its development, optogenetics has become a fundamental tool in neuroscience. Now, Karl Dei
