Researchers at Lund University have discovered how a hidden piece of DNA, known as a transposable element, disrupts normal gene function in a disease called X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP). Published in Nature Structural and Molecular Biology, their findings uncover the epigenetic processes that lead to changes in gene expression linked to XDP, offering new insights into how this rare genetic

How do you get a robot to behave in an ethical and moral way? Christian Balkenius is giving this a lot of thought, as it is the topic of his research project. However, he is also thinking about ethics among robot researchers.  “It’s often said that we have advanced further than we actually have done. The aim of the research is not fulfilled if we are not honest.”  Robots pique the imagination and

In a major study of hereditary breast cancer, a global network of researchers (including some from Lund University) has identified over 350 faults in DNA that increase an individual’s risk of developing the disease. The researchers believe that these faults can affect as many as 190 genes. Published in Nature Genetics, a scientific journal, the results are said to be the thus far most comprehensiv

Why do some people develop type 1 diabetes and others do not? Worldwide, researchers are now collaborating to find the answer to this complex question. Diabetes researchers at Lund University recently contributed data to a new study that shows that type 1 diabetes develops in three different ways in children. This improved understanding makes it possible for scientists to conduct new types of stud

Global environmental changes caused by a warmer climate can be combatted on a local level. The quality of our drinking water can be improved before it reaches water purification facilities and consumers through local efforts that minimise the growth of toxic algae and cyanobacteria in lakes. BECC researchers Pablo Urrutia Cordero and Lars-Anders Hansson, Lund University, have recently published th
