Laura Elo at University of Turku is awarded the Leif C. Groop Award for outstanding research on type 1 diabetes. The mathematician from Finland has developed methods which have helped increase the understanding of how type 1 diabetes develops at molecular level. She hopes her research will help prevent and delay the progression of the disease and individualise the treatment of type 1 diabetes. Jus

Epigenetics has become an important tool for researchers endeavoring to understand the causes and development stages of type 2 diabetes. In the future, epigenetic biomarkers could be used to predict type 2 diabetes and individualise its treatment. Diabetes and epigenetics researchers at Lund University summarise some of the most important advancements in a review article published in Nature Review

Diabetes researchers have established methods for screening people with an increased risk of developing type 1 diabetes. Current methods require multiple blood samples during each visit. An international team of researchers has developed a simplified screening method, which will increase screening efficiency. Type 1 diabetes is a disease that requires lifelong treatment with insulin. People of all

Researchers from Lund University, led by Dr. Laurent Roybon, are working to further define underlying mechanisms involved in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s Disease and Multiple System Atrophy. Their latest discovery, published in PNAS, could be used to devise novel therapeutic approaches to treat neurodegenerative diseases such as these, as well as other synucleiopathies in the fu

Men with severely reduced fertility are at greater risk of developing other health conditions later in life. A research team from Lund University in Sweden has now shown that these men are also more likely to develop colorectal cancer and thyroid cancer. The link between male infertility and an increased risk of disease is a relatively new area of research in reproductive health. Previous studies

Framtida studenter kan se fram emot en ny bok: "Sociologins klassiker: Upptäckter och återupptäckter". Boken vill bredda förståelsen av klassisk sociologi och lyfta fram tidiga tänkare och skribenter som av olika anledningar blivit åsidosatta. Redaktörer är Lisa Eklund och Bo Isenberg, docenter i sociologi här på Sociologiska institutionen i Lund. – Jag tror faktiskt att boken är unik i bemärkelse

Livsmedelsforskare i Lund har upptäckt att det är hälsosamt att få i sig små mängder krom och vissa aminosyror före maten. Varför? Jo, denna blandning utspädd i vatten dämpar rejält den blodsockerstegring som uppstår när man äter. Nu hoppas de att drycken – som smakar som vanligt mineralvatten – ska kunna konkurrera

Metformin is often described as the first-line medication for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. However, not all patients respond to the drug. Researchers at Lund University have discovered a combination of biomarkers that can predict which patients will benefit from the treatment. This work is now continuing in order to confirm the results in a larger patient group, with the intention of developi
