Much research on diabetes focuses on understanding what happens when the insulin-producing cells are destroyed. Researchers at Lund University have instead chosen to investigate what protects the insulin-producing cells. Their research shows that a protein of the immune system protects the insulin-producing cells from inflammation and death. The study, published in PNAS, is an example of basic res

A treatment that has reduced plaque development in animals has now been tested in people with psoriasis. Jan Nilsson at Lund University is one of the researchers behind the clinical study that showed a reduced inflammation of the coronary arteries, which in turn may reduce the risk of dying from a heart attack. People with diabetes may also benefit from the treatment in the future. Short facts abo

The EAT-Lancet diet is a framework designed to promote environmental sustainability while also preventing common diseases such as type 2 diabetes. How do we know if the diet actually works? An international research team studied seven dietary scores and found that two of them were particularly good at evaluating adherence to the diet. Reliable diet scores are important when developing sustainable

The Director General of the National Board of Trade (‘Kommerskollegium’), Anders Ahnlid, visited Lund on 30 March 2022. At a seminar organized by the Centre for European Studies, he presented an overview of how the global trading system came into being, evolved during and after the Cold War, and might develop in light of the challenges imposed upon it by the current war in Ukraine. Anders, who has

Off the coast at Haväng, forests several thousands of years old are hidden below the sea. When researchers dive down to examine the well-preserved tree-trunks, they are literally diving deep into human history. Arne Sjöström gets ready for another sea dive. The morning sun is glittering on the calm surface of the Baltic Sea at Haväng in Österlen. Down on the beach, the researchers are preparing fo

A study conducted by researchers at Lund University has found that protein oxidation forms an additional layer of regulation during the development of fetal blood stem cells and may play a role in the development of leukemia. The results are now available in the journal, Redox Biology. The human body is made up of trillions of cells and within each are proteins - large, complex molecules that play

Transistors that can change properties are important elements in the development of tomorrow’s semiconductors. With standard transistors approaching the limit for how small they can be, having more functions on the same number of units becomes increasingly important in enabling the development of small, energy-efficient circuits for improved memory and more powerful computers. Researchers at Lund

How long does it take to comfort someone? Does an egg need to be fried rather than boiled? LUM invited home care researchers from the School of Social Work and the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) for a conversation. They are meeting for the first time; their discussions cover stress, responsibility and participation. Their common goal is better home care, but they approach the issue from different pe

Thanks to stem cell research, we now understand much more about the earliest stages of human development and what underlies many of our diseases. In recent years, the field has been revolutionised by several discoveries that have completely changed the landscape of stem cell research. Since its establishment as a strategic research centre, the Lund Stem Cell Center has become one of the strongest
