A large international collaboration involving researchers from Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center has taken an important step toward making induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)–based therapies more globally accessible. Published in Stem Cell Reports, the study presents the first data‑driven international benchmarking of key quality control assays, showing how standardized methods can reduce v

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

Several faculties have merged different departments or are about to do so. The Faculty of Engineering (LTH) merged two departments at the turn of the year, the Facult of Social Sciences has decided on one merger and is on the way to a second, while the Faculty of Science will make a decision after the summer. In a policy decision last year, the Faculty of Social Sciences decided that within a few

Studiefusket ökade med uppåt 200% under covid-åren. I spår av detta har Lunds universitet startat ett projekt för att förebygga vilseledande vid examination (eller fusk som vilseledande kallas till vardags), oavsett om det är otillåtet samarbete, plagiering eller otillåtna hjälpmedel. I varje studerandemiljö finns en unik kultur med gränser för vad som anses acceptabelt och vad som anses oacceptab

Unchanged since 1996, Sweden's hexavalent chromium exposure limit is higher than in several other countries. A research study from Lund University in Sweden shows that even workers exposed to levels of chromium below the Swedish limit display significant cell changes long before cancer develops. A proposal from the Swedish Work Environment Authority to lower the limit has now been put forward. In
