The researchers who look into the tiniest part of a cell

It is a cold, grey November day in 2018 when we meet the researchers from Lund University at MAX IV, a research facility with the world's brightest and most focused X-rays. Researchers from all over the world travel here to investigate things at the atomic level and see how molecules bind to one other; knowledge that is valuable when developing new drugs, for example. Months of preparation have go

“Africa has given me more than I could ever give back”

Missiologist Mika Vähäkangas thinks that Scandinavians can be a little self-righteous. He says that he has become who he is in great part thanks to his research in Africa – there he learnt what he knows about compassion.  Over nearly thirty years, he first carried out missionary work and then research, teaching and fieldwork in Africa on African Christianity.    "It has always been Africa. My pare

Lund Research Into Spinal Cord Injuries Continues to Have Global Impact

For a decade now, the Rehabilitation Medicine research group’s work on spinal cord injuries (SCI’s) has had a far-reaching impact. In many areas, this is research at the global cutting edge; not least, in terms of following the same group of individuals as they live – and age – with spinal cord injuries. Research group leader Jan Lexell is preparing to flex the group’s academic muscles further in

Stimulating environment – the key to success in clinical genetics

Close proximity between the laboratory and the clinic, an identity that is tied to the division and not only to the different research groups, and lunch conversations about everything between heaven and earth. Thoas Fioretos, Felix Mitelman and Fredrik Mertens. According to three professors, these are some of the reasons why the Division of Clinical Genetics within the Department of Laboratory Med

Henrik Smith – the visionary who never slows down

With his cycling helmet perched on his head, he rushes in like a whirlwind, fires off monosyllabic replies to emails and then asks thoughtful questions during meetings while simultaneously managing to work away on his computer. For Henrik Smith, life moves at a hundred miles an hour. But he is also a lauded professor with an awful lot to do. Henrik Smith, you see, wants to save the world. Has he g
