Över två miljoner människor, bara i Sverige, lever med sjukdom kopplat till hjärta och lungor. Framgångsrik forskning har bidragit till att färre dör, men hjärt-lungsjukdomar är fortfarande bland de vanligaste dödsorsakerna. Nu delar Hjärt-Lungfonden ut 76 miljoner kronor till forskning vid Lunds universitet. Fyra av de 37 forskarna som får projektanslag i denna omgång är:  Henrik Engblom, adjunge

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har utvecklat en ny metod för att ta reda på hur blodets proteinsammansättning förändras vid sjukdom eller organskada. Det kan ge en djupare förståelse för hur sjukdomar påverkar kroppen och kan användas för att upptäcka nya biomarkörer i blodet som stöd för att diagnostisera komplexa sjukdomstillstånd. Våra organ består av en mängd specifika proteiner som är livsvik

Den vanligaste cancerformen hos barn är en viss typ av lymfatisk leukemi. Idag överlever de flesta barn som drabbas, men behandlingen är tung. I ett försök att hitta en mer skonsam behandling har forskare vid Lunds universitet utvecklat en immunterapi som i avancerade experimentella modeller effektivt dödar cancerceller i en undergrupp av leukemi. För bara 80 år sedan dog i stort sett alla barn me

Arbetslinjen har varit gynnsam för svensk tillväxt, men på längre sikt kan den visa sig skadlig. Färre barn föds och om det håller i sig riskerar landets ekonomi att minska. Utredningen för en framtid med barn som leds av Åsa Hansson, docent i nationalekonomi vid Ekonomihögskolan vid Lunds universitet har precis lanserat sin tredje rapport. I denna studerar Mattias Ossowicki, kansliråd vid Sociald

Nu startar Innodia i Sverige, en europeisk studie med målet att hitta nya behandlingar som ska bromsa sjukdomsförloppet vid typ 1-diabetes. – I början kan kroppen fortfarande göra en liten mängd insulin men förmågan försvinner gradvis. Ju längre tid kroppen kan göra insulin desto bättre eftersom det minskar risken för långtidskomplikationer, säger Markus Lundgren, forskare vid Lunds universitet so

To ensure that everyone has their say and that no one feels attacked when debating loaded and sensitive topics, it is important to establish the ground rules from the outset. This applies to society at large and in the lecture hall. This is the opinion of Christer Mattsson, Associate Professor of Pedagogy and Director of the Segerstedt Institute at the University of Gothenburg, who has been invite

Set a goal for your training for one to four months and pay in SEK 1,000. You get your money back if you achieve your goal. Crazy? Perhaps, but in a study by Professor of Economics Erik Wengström and his colleagues, the incentive proved to be quite effective compared with the control groups. “I’ve had a long-standing interest in how people behave in strategic situations and if you look at it from

Many of the University’s researchers are publishing fantastic research that has been done with the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI). Many are curious to test out AI to improve, simplify or speed up at least a part of the research process. At the same time, many are asking “what am I allowed to use AI for?” The starting point when using AI in research is to follow the basic principles of

For many years there has been an on-going discussion about how academic freedom is being challenged in many parts of the world, including Sweden. And when even some of the strongest academic bastions in the world such as Harvard are now fighting for their independence against the American federal administration’s political directives, it is clear that academia has not been crying wolf. Academic fr

Archaeologist Greer Jarrett’s research focuses on reconstructing Viking sailing routes and cartography. To do so, he learnt to sail boats similar to those sailed by the Vikings and set off out to sea. He likens the sailors of that time to today’s extreme athletes. “I started a fairly theoretical doctoral thesis on reconstructing Viking sailing routes, but I wanted practical experience from a sailo
