University visits the first step towards an Africa strategy
Some people say it’s about time, and Deputy Vice-Chancellor Eva Wiberg agrees that the time is now ripe. After an intensive week in South Africa and Botswana, with visits to seven universities, alumni events and official openings, it is time for Lund University to put its Africa strategy down on paper. The delegation in Pretoria. Back row l-r: Isabel de Necker (from Pretoria), Margareta Nordstrand

Update on STEM-PD clinical trial – stem cell-based transplant for Parkinson’s disease
Higher dose cohort initiated after positive early safety evaluation in Parkinson's therapy. After a positive initial safety evaluation, the pioneering STEM-PD clinical trial has advanced to higher dose testing. STEM-PD is a first-in-human clinical trial testing a new investigational therapy for Parkinson’s disease aimed at replacing the dopamine cells lost to the disease with healthy ones derived

Avatar provides live signing on stage in unique project
With enormous eyes, a huge mouth and defined, prominent eyebrows, an avatar in the form of a ghost using sign language in real time takes the stage. During 2022, Riksteatern Crea – one of the world’s leading sign language theatres – and researchers at Lund University Humanities Lab trialled new innovative and creative solutions in order to make the technology work for this multi-dimensional theatr

Children's relationship with nature is key to future sustainable forest management
New research from Lund University Centre for Sustainability Studies shows that children’s relationships with nature are not only important for their wellbeing but also for future sustainable forest management. The study also shows that different socioeconomic factors affect children’s experiences of and relationships with the forest. Currently, young people are at risk of having less and less cont

Does debt create ill health – or does ill health create debt?
Many Swedes have large debts, and being in debt is often expected to lead to poor health. However, economist Therese Nilsson at the School of Economics and Management finds that we still do not know enough to determine whether it is the debt itself that leads to ill health – or if ill health leads to debt.

Rapid development of ventilator for COVID 19
‘With age comes wisdom’ is an old proverb well suited to Björn Jonson, professor emeritus in clinical physiology who is about to turn 80. He is working day and night to develop a ventilator specifically adapted to the treatment of those suffering the most from COVID 19. Björn Jonson has worked as a researcher in pulmonary physiology since the beginning of the 1960s. Quite early on in his research,

Scientists uncover cellular “toolkit” to reprogram immune cells for cancer therapy
Daniella Rylander Ottosson named as Wallenberg Academy Fellow
Using methods for reprogramming human glia cells top create specialised nerve cells, interneurons, researcher Daniella Rylander Ottosson aims to lay the foundations for future treatments of diseases such as schizophrenia and epilepsy. Of the 27 new Wallenberg Academy Fellows, two are at Lund University: Daniella Rylander Ottosson, who is conducting research into regenerative neurophysiology at the

Guest researcher Prof. Detlef F. Sprinz on working with the topic of forest carbon removals in BECC
During his stay, Professor Detlef F. Sprinz focused on collaboration on the project LiMa – A Liquid Market for Forest Carbon. The project’s goal is to elucidate whether forest carbon can be a major component in the transition towards a greenhouse gas future where net emissions approach zero. Professor Detlef F. Sprinz is a leading expert on climate governance from the Potsdam Institute for Climate

Scientists gather to face the climate's hot dangers
Increased temperatures in connection with climate change are now inspiring researchers at CASE to identify challenges and develop measures to mitigate and manage excessive heat. On March 19, they will meet in a workshop led by Andrew Karvonen, Professor of Urban Design and Planning at LTH. Since the massive heat wave in Europe in August 2003, researchers have been investigating how cities can impl

Drones offer new insights into boreal peatland CO2 emissions
Boreal peatlands store large amounts of carbon, but warmer and drier conditions caused by climate change may turn these ecosystems into carbon sources. Equipped with drones and thermal cameras Julia Kelly, who recently received her doctorate at the Centre for Environmental and Climate Science (CEC), has studied what factors affect the CO2 fluxes in peatland ecosystems. Boreal forests and peatlands

A step closer to treatment for severe bacterial infections and sepsis
The development of a new treatment strategy for bacterial infections and sepsis is being led by researchers at Lund University. In a study the researchers demonstrate how they, by mimicking a substance naturally present in the body, can neutralize toxic substances from bacteria and thereby mitigate harmful inflammation that could otherwise lead to sepsis. “Despite decades of research, there are cu
