Robots – not so smart as we would like to think

How do you get a robot to behave in an ethical and moral way? Christian Balkenius is giving this a lot of thought, as it is the topic of his research project. However, he is also thinking about ethics among robot researchers.  “It’s often said that we have advanced further than we actually have done. The aim of the research is not fulfilled if we are not honest.”  Robots pique the imagination and

Major study gives most comprehensive map of breast cancer risk

In a major study of hereditary breast cancer, a global network of researchers (including some from Lund University) has identified over 350 faults in DNA that increase an individual’s risk of developing the disease. The researchers believe that these faults can affect as many as 190 genes. Published in Nature Genetics, a scientific journal, the results are said to be the thus far most comprehensiv

Epigenetics can pave the way for individualised treatment of type 2 diabetes

Epigenetics has become an important tool for researchers endeavoring to understand the causes and development stages of type 2 diabetes. In the future, epigenetic biomarkers could be used to predict type 2 diabetes and individualise its treatment. Diabetes and epigenetics researchers at Lund University summarise some of the most important advancements in a review article published in Nature Review

Shedding new light on intermediate cell states as stem cells decide their fate

Researchers at Lund University have recently sought to shed more light on how normal hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) produce a vast variety of blood cells. Their latest findings, now out in Cell Reports this week, confirm the existence of a transition state as HSCs develop into functional blood cells and provide insights into how certain properties of HSCs are lost as these cells decide their fate

Modelling for the survival of bumblebees

Lack of habitats and climate change – parameters that scientists know affect the number of pollinators in the world. But exactly how big is the effect and what else contributes to the decline of bees and bumblebees? This has Maria Blasi i Romero tried to find out in her dissertation which will be presented on November 26. A sure sign of spring is the buttery yellow rapeseed fields that every year

How Hidden Genetic Elements Trigger a Rare Neurodegenerative Disorder

Researchers at Lund University have discovered how a hidden piece of DNA, known as a transposable element, disrupts normal gene function in a disease called X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP). Published in Nature Structural and Molecular Biology, their findings uncover the epigenetic processes that lead to changes in gene expression linked to XDP, offering new insights into how this rare genetic

Blood testing in children leads to better understanding of type 1 diabetes

Why do some people develop type 1 diabetes and others do not? Worldwide, researchers are now collaborating to find the answer to this complex question. Diabetes researchers at Lund University recently contributed data to a new study that shows that type 1 diabetes develops in three different ways in children. This improved understanding makes it possible for scientists to conduct new types of stud

Degree project students appreciate open working climate at Tetra Pak

"When I was a kid, I said tetra about all the juice drinks," says Roxanne Mae Targa when she talks about her first experience with Tetra Pak. Now she knows more. After completing her degree project, she is now employed by the company. As a student at Tetra Pak, she quickly felt like one in the group – an experience she shares with her classmates Nawapan Boonchum and Elif Tiryakioglu. How much did
