Over-coverage in population registers leads to bias in demographic estimates.

Estimating the number of individuals living in a country is an essential task for demographers. This study assesses the potential bias in estimating the size of different migrant populations due to over-coverage in population registers. Over-coverage-individuals registered but not living in a country-is an increasingly pressing phenomenon; however, there is no common understanding of how to deal w

New Study Reveals Astrocytes' Role in Frontotemporal Dementia

Lund Stem Cell Center researchers have published a new study that reveals the role of astrocytes in the development of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Their findings, now in the journal Brain Communications, provide valuable insights into the cellular mechanisms of the disease and open up new possibilities for developing early diagnostics and potential interventions for patients with FTD and other

Omega-3 can alleviate symptoms in depressed patients with inflammation

How might low-grade inflammation be linked to depression? New research findings show that depression can be alleviated when patients with mild elevations of inflammatory markers in blood samples take omega-3 supplements. The antidepresssant effect was greater in those with low-grade inflammation than in those with no inflammation. “We saw a significant improvement in symptom severity,” says resear

Spy novel – a way to present new research

A great deal of moral courage or a really desperate situation – these are the requirements for someone to disclose state secrets. And life will most certainly never be the same again. This is what emerges from the experiences of the Cold War’s first major defectors, Mr and Mrs Petrov, as from those of Edward Snowden, who will perhaps never be able to return to his homeland without risking severe p

The other side of the story – how children of immigrants experience life

How does migration and globalisation shape the lives of individuals in various countries and how does it affect the children of immigrants in terms of integration, identity, and cultural expressions? Do they themselves use the word integration? These questions occupy sociologist Dalia Abdelhady who is about to conclude a study of three populations in the US, in France and in Germany, based on thei

How Mobile DNA Shapes the Human Brain

The human brain is an incredibly intricate organ that regulates everything from our motor skills to our memories. But how did it evolve into the complex structure we see today? Researchers at Lund University offer new insights in their latest study, published in Science Advances, detailing how a specific group of genetic elements have influenced the development of the human brain over time. Hidden

A diet rich on fat and sugar damaged the memory in mice – but not permanently

Food impacts not only the body but also the brain. Researchers at Lund University strive to understand how a diet rich on fat and sugar impacts memory functions in relation to obesity and type 2 diabetes. Their new study on mice shows that although an unhealthy diet leads to memory impairment, the damage does not have to be permanent. Obesity is a risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes and car

Blood matching – a matter of life and death

Matching the blood of donors and recipients can be crucial to health, and sometimes even a matter of life and death. Blood researcher Martin L. Olsson wants in various ways to make this pairing as good as possible. Saranda Muhaxheri and Asma Al-Grety. Photo: Gunnar Menander Martin L. Olsson.

New research gives insights into the human genome’s defence mechanisms

Researchers at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center have made a new discovery about how the human genome protects itself from disruption during critical stages of life. Their study, recently published in Nature Communications, reveals how two key defense mechanisms—DNA methylation and the HUSH complex—work together to safeguard genomic stability. The human genome contains large stretches of rep
