Summer holiday? Not yet – at least not for the three high school students, who were chosen to spend two weeks at NanoLund right after the end of the school year. “This is great. We get a clearer view of the world of science and universities. I expect to get more insight and learn more about what it means to do a Ph.D. – and to learn more about Lund University,” says Alexander Lundh from the Tycho

Some students work harder than others, arranging this year's work fair, Agoradagen, while studying full-time. But when you are an engaged student you also benefit. The work fair of Campus Helsingborg celebrates fifteen years. The event is managed by a project group within the students' union, the participants of which signed up for long days of unpaid work on the side of their full-time studies.Pr

In the autumn, I hope we in the university management can focus on the core issues that we want to drive forward. It has been a very unusual start for the new University Management, strongly characterised by the ongoing pandemic. I hope that developments now go in the right direction and that within the University Management we can focus more on the core issues that we want to drive forward. The c

What are the latest contributions to sustainability research, and who is working on the Global Goals? It is now possible to search for researchers, organisations, research output and projects that relate to the UN’s global goals. At the beginning of October, sustainability labels were launched to the public in Lund University’s Research Portal. The tagging can be used as one of many filters when l

Lund University's holding company is changing its name from LU Holding to LU Ventures. The new name aims to better reflect the company's mission: to build companies that transform research into new products and services creating global impact. "We are third best in the world, but we should not be satisfied – more research must lead to innovations." said Rector Erik Renström and highlighted a repor

She has survived a brain tumour and hates empty phrases such as “seize the day” and “live in the present”. Despite this, after the tumour operation Ulrika Sandén both researched and wrote a book on what she calls “Contentment in the moment”, an approach to life that she assimilated during her years in Vesterålen in northern Norway. “The present can be terrible. It’s more a matter of affecting the

David Gisselsson Nord and Tony Ingesson both love spy novels and have a nerdy interest in history. Their shared curiosity resulted in an interdisciplinary collaboration about how it might be possible to inspire smarter cancer treatment with the help of methods from espionage and intelligence analysis. Tony Ingesson finds it fairly easy to show a bit of attitude in front of the camera. David Gissel

Researchers have identified 395 genes that are differently expressed in people with type 2 diabetes. One of the genes proved to be very strongly associated with impaired insulin secretion. Now, researchers want to investigate if it is possible to use the genetic CRISPR/Cas9 scissors to correct the gene’s activity. The research team’s scientific paper was published in the Journal of Clinical Invest

During 7-8 of May, 80 researchers within MERGE and BECC met to learn about the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, and how their research can be linked, and contribute, to the implementation of the goals. We are just as far from reaching the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) as Burkina Faso. We just have different challenges.This is one of many terse quotes delivered by Katherine Richardson, pr

Cancer is a genetic disease, caused by a change in the genes which make up our DNA. Normally one change or mutation is not enough to trigger the development of cancer, instead cancer is typically comprised of a combination of genetic mutations. Researchers at Lund University have now revealed a novel somatic gene mutation is involved in the formation and progression of acute myeloid leukemia. The

Researchers from Lund University, led by Dr. Laurent Roybon, are working to further define underlying mechanisms involved in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s Disease and Multiple System Atrophy. Their latest discovery, published in PNAS, could be used to devise novel therapeutic approaches to treat neurodegenerative diseases such as these, as well as other synucleiopathies in the fu

Established ways of measuring carbon emissions can sometimes give misleading feedback on how national policies affect global emissions. In some cases, countries are even rewarded for policies that increase global emissions, and punished for policies that contribute to reducing them. “We have developed a new method that provides policy makers with more useful information, in order to set national t
