Cheating and interdisciplinary fun

There is time for both serious talk about the latest research as well as play when ­Anders Wittrup and Vinay Swaminathan meet up in the playground with their kids. Photo: Åsa Hansdotter Five years after the opening of the prestigious Wallenberg Centre for Molecular Medicine, nothing has turned out as planned. The “tandem pairs” that were supposed to develop research together are now cheating on ea

Simple medication can save the lives of cardiac patients

“Today’s guidelines recommend stepwise addition of lipid-lowering treatment. But it’s often the case that this escalation takes too long, it’s ineffective and patients are lost to follow-up", says Margrét LeósdóttirPhoto: Åsa Hansdotter Patients suffering from myocardial infarction who receive early add-on lipid-lowering medication have a significantly better prognosis than those who receive add-o

Early signs in young children predict type 1 diabetes

New research shows that it is possible to predict the development of type 1 diabetes. By measuring the presence of autoantibodies in the blood, it is possible to detect whether the immune system has begun to break down the bodys own insulin cells. "In the TEDDY study we have found that autoantibodies often appear during the first few years of life", said professor Åke Lernmark from Lund University

Researchers have found the genetic cause for a type of hereditary ataxia, SCA4 – for long an unresolved conundrum

Spinocerebellar ataxias, SCA diseases, are a large group of rare, hereditary diseases in which difficulties in coordinating movements are common. Researchers have now solved the mystery behind one of SCA's diseases. Image: iStock/Andriy Yalanskyi. Intensive efforts are being made in medical research to discover the genomic causes of undiagnosed hereditary diseases. Persistent work and new technolo

Greyzone Genomics: Assessing the Risks of DNA Technology in Global Power Struggles

Photo: Sangharsh Lohakare/Unsplash. As advancements in genetic technology continue to benefit human health, concerns are mounting over their potential misuse in geopolitical conflicts. While discussions on the risks of genetic technology in international affairs have often focused on dramatic scenarios – such as so-called "genetic bioweapons" – a team of interdisciplinary researchers argues that t

Does the Mediterranean diet really decrease your risk of dementia?

Photo: Mostphotos. Numerous studies have suggested that eating a healthy diet may reduce a person’s risk of dementia. A new study from one of MultiPark's research groups, published in Neurology, sheds new light on the impact of having a Mediterranean diet. The Mediterranean diet includes a high intake of vegetables, legumes, fruits, fish and healthy fats such as olive oil, and a low intake of dair
