On March 4, the BECC cluster “Climate, land use and biogeochemical cycles” visited the synchrotron source MAX IV. MAX IV Laboratory is a national laboratory hosted by Lund University. It operates accelerators producing x-rays of very high intensity and quality which are used for scientific research making the invisible visible. The new MAX IV will opens in 2016 and it will be the brightest x-ray s

Fifteen years ago, the first doctoral students began their education at CEC. Since then, there have been 240 PhD students from CEC and ClimBEco, the research school hosted by CEC. This week, about 60 of them gathered for a joint alumni celebration with networking, workshops and lectures at AF-borgen in Lund. The alumni of CEC and ClimBEco are now in very different fields, some have researched and

Newborn babies are already being screened for mutations and genetic tests help families with hereditary breast cancer. Genomic-driven precision medicine (GDPM) is an emerging approach for disease treatment. Around 30 Swedish researchers suggest a direction forward in a review article in Journal of Internal Medicine (JIM). "At the moment newborns are screened for a small number of mutations. In the

Life can feel a little overwhelming in the times we live where society is less homogenous, and individualism prevails although many of our challenges require cooperation between different interests, ideologies, and countries. Human beings need to feel meaning, hope and motivation to overcome difficulties and to find new solutions. Therefore, we need to understand more about existential sustainabil

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. It’s a known fact that cells can move around the body, but how they do it has been unknown – until now. Researcher in Infection Medicine Pontus Nordenfelt at Lund University in Sweden has managed to describe and visualise cell migration on a molecular level. In time, this could become significant in the treatment of i

An international team led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden has identified the molecular tools needed to reprogram ordinary cells into specialised immune cells. The discovery, published in Immunity, could pave the way for more precise and personalised cancer immunotherapies. The team has taken an important step toward harnessing the immune system to fight cancer. Their work describes how
