A research team led by Lund University in Sweden has developed an AI tool that traces back the most recent places you have been to. The tool acts like a satellite navigation system, but instead of guiding you to your hotel, it identifies the geographical source of microorganisms. This means you can use bacteria to determine whether someone has just been to the beach, got off the train in the city

A new report from Lund University in Sweden shows how the pharmaceutical industry time and again violates regulations on the marketing of drugs. The study has been published in the journal PLOS Medicine. In order to avoid unethical marketing, the pharmaceutical industry has a well-established system of self-regulation

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. To distinguish between education and research as early as the allocation stage of basic government funding does not benefit their intertwining. Nor is it helpful that only research counts if you want to have a good career. “Good teaching initiatives are to be rewarded and teaching should be well-regarded” according to

Two world-leading American researchers known respectively for their research within medical humanities, and the sensory nervous system and perception of pain and temperature have been named honorary doctors at the Faculty of Medicine. The honorary doctorates will be conferred on 26 May 2023. Ever since David Julius’ discovery of the temperature and pain receptor TRPV1, he has contributed crucial d

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

Diagnosing Alzheimer's disease can be difficult, as several other conditions can cause similar symptoms. Now a new brain imaging method can show the spread of specific tau protein depositions, which are unique to cases with Alzheimer's. ‟The method works very well. I believe it will be applied clinically all over the world in only a few years”, says Oskar Hansson. Hansson is a professor of clinica

PhD student Juan Antonio Samper hopes that his research some day can play a role in emancipatory causes currently happening in the territory of Putumayo, and make a difference for social life in specific places. He explores the relationship between collective identity and place, and the ways in which this relation is mobilised by different groups in the Colombian Andean-Amazonia to resist extracti

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The bad news about malignant melanoma is that the disease is increasing more rapidly than most other types of cancer. The good news is that it is easy to cure, as long as it is detected in time. A research group in Lund has therefore started a project that it is hoped will make it easier to correctly diagnose suspicio
