Researchers at Lund University are developing a new type of gene therapy that reprograms cancer cells within tumors into immune cells that can help the immune system fight cancer. Their approach, now published in the journal Science, could lead to more effective treatments for hard-to-treat cancers. Cancer is known for its ability to hide from the immune system, making it tough to fight. But what

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Nu är det bevisat igen. Med en bättre livsstil går det att mota typ 2 diabetes även för dem som har högst risk att insjukna. Den finska undersökningen Diabetes Prevention Study bekräftar resultaten från flera andra undersökningar. I undersökningen Diabetes Prevention Study (DPS) delades slumpmässigt 522 överviktiga,

Hur kan forskningsresultat kommuniceras bortom den akademiska texten? Genusvetarna Elin Lundell och Mia Liinason har valt ett nytt sätt: att översätta sin forskning till en animerad film. Teoretisk utgångspunktArtikeln som ligger till grund för filmen analyserar hur gränser mellan religion och sekularitet konstrueras och upprätthålls i samtida Sverige. Studien tar sin utgångspunkt i feministisk te

Vårt DNA är mycket likt schimpansens, som evolutionärt är vår närmaste levande släkting. Nu har stamcellsforskare i Lund hittat en tidigare förbisedd del i vårt DNA, så kallat icke-kodat DNA, som tycks bidra till en skillnad som trots alla våra likheter kan förklara varför våra hjärnor fungerar olika. Studien publiceras i den vetenskapliga tidskriften Cell Stem Cell. Schimpansen är vår närmaste le

PhD candidate Heraclitos Muhire's research focuses on politicians leaving politics and joining private companies. Movements between business and politics are almost uncontrolled, and the conflicts and consequences are understudied. Around the 2014 elections, Heraclitos Muhire noticed a potential conflict of interest as the outgoing government moved into high-level positions in the same sectors whe

Countries’ climate pledges are dangerously over reliant on inequitable and unsustainable land-based measures to capture and store carbon. This is stated in a new study, co-written by LUCSUS researcher Wim Carton. – Our study shows that current national carbon plans would require a land area larger than the size of the U.S., or almost four times the land area of India. These plans are not only unre

In recent years, the circular economy has become a guiding principle in industrial and environmental policies. But how good is it really? The definition of a circular economy is unclear and lacks substance, according to a team of researchers from Lund University and the Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden. It risks becoming counterproductive, unless we stop referring to it as a panacea for all

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Ordinary table salt can be used to measure radiation from radioactive substances, provided that it is stored in the dark.
