When research findings are ready to make the leap from the lab to the patient, the requirements become much stricter. That is precisely where many promising projects start to falter. “We want to be the bridge between research and the patient, so that promising projects don’t get stuck in that difficult transition,” says Sara Nolbrant, director of the new pre-GMP facility. And with that, she disapp

An international team of researchers has investigated whether oral insulin can prevent early signs of type 1 diabetes and clinical diagnosis in children with an increased risk of developing the disease. Although treatment with oral insulin could not prevent development of diabetes-related autoantibodies, oral insulin delayed the rate of disease progression in children who developed such autoantibo

Nu har forskarna fått svaret på frågan om oralt insulin kan förhindra tidiga tecken på typ 1-diabetes eller klinisk diagnos hos små barn med förhöjd risk att utveckla sjukdomen. Även om behandlingen inte kunde förhindra utvecklingen av diabetesrelaterade autoantikroppar fördröjde oralt insulin sjukdomshastigheten hos barn som utvecklade sådana autoantikroppar. Omkring 170 svenska barn har deltagit

Bete är en nyckelåtgärd för att bevara naturbetesmarker, några av Sveriges viktigaste livsmiljöer ur natur- och kulturvårdssynpunkt. Det är dock en utmaning att hitta rätt nivå på betet vilket leder till att många värdefulla marker betas för hårt, medan andra marker växer igen. För att diskutera utmaningar med ett högt betestryck, och öppna dörren till möjliga lösningar, bjöd LU Land in till ett f

En uppföljningsstudie av unga svenska män som dömts till fängelse för vålds- eller sexbrott, målar en tydlig bild: de flesta återfaller i brott gång på gång – i snitt över 30 brott innan de hunnit fylla 30. Nu publiceras forskningsresultat som även visar att en historia av allvarlig psykisk sjukdom ökar risken för att återfalla i kriminalitet. – Det här är personer som behöver få både tidigare och

Veterinarian in charge Anders Forslid is retiring after 30 years working to improve the welfare of research animals at Lund University. He has witnessed a paradigm shift in animal health and animal experiments, and the way animal testing and humans’ obligations are viewed has changed. When Anders Forslid started out as a laboratory animal veterinarian at Lund University, he received a fairly cool

Missiologist Mika Vähäkangas thinks that Scandinavians can be a little self-righteous. He says that he has become who he is in great part thanks to his research in Africa – there he learnt what he knows about compassion.  Over nearly thirty years, he first carried out missionary work and then research, teaching and fieldwork in Africa on African Christianity.    "It has always been Africa.
