Medicinska fakulteten bevarar idag den så kallade Bromanska samlingen vid Arkivcentrum Syd. Samlingen är en rest från medicinsk forskning på 1920–50-talen och består av konserverade foster och fullgångna spädbarn. Efter anmodan från Medicinska fakultetens styrelse har nu rektor beslutat att samlingen ska avvecklas och foster och barn ges en värdig begravning på Norra Kyrkogården och en minnessten

För första gången har forskare kunnat visa hur en cell stänger dörren för fria radikaler – små syremolekyler som ibland behövs, men som även kan skada våra celler. Studien publiceras i Nature Communications och är ledd från Lunds universitet. För att våra celler ska fungera behöver de hålla en noggrann balans mellan nyttiga och skadliga syremolekyler, så kallade fria radikaler. En av de mest centr

What happens when PhD students, postdocs and research staff from four research centres come together for two days of science, career conversations and new connections? WCMM Fusion 2026 offered an opportunity to find out. On 21–22 September, researchers from WCMM Lund, Gothenburg, Linköping and Umeå gathered for the second WCMM National Team Meeting, a national forum created to connect researchers

A simpler method of analysing blood samples for Alzheimer’s disease has been tested in a large multicentre study, led by Lund University in Sweden. “This is a major step in bringing simple blood tests for Alzheimer’s disease into the healthcare system globally,” say the researchers behind the study.

Patients suffering from myocardial infarction who receive early add-on lipid-lowering medication have a significantly better prognosis than those who receive add-on treatment late, or not all. Based on the results of a study from Lund University in Sweden, many new heart attacks, strokes and deaths could be prevented. Cardiovascular disease is by far the most common cause of death worldwide, and m

An international team led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden has identified the molecular tools needed to reprogram ordinary cells into specialised immune cells. The discovery, published in Immunity, could pave the way for more precise and personalised cancer immunotherapies. The team has taken an important step toward harnessing the immune system to fight cancer. Their work describes how

Almost half of all dementia cases can be attributed to risk factors that we potentially can influence ourselves, such as smoking and high blood pressure. A new study from Lund University shows which risk factors are associated with two of our most common causes of dementia – Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. During our lifetime, the risk of developing dementia is influenced by aspects tha

There were fewer cases of breast cancer between two screening rounds, and of the cancers that did develop, fewer were advanced or aggressive. The final results from Lund University's MASAI trial are now available, and they show further benefits of AI-supported breast cancer screening. The study has already shown that AI support in mammography screening contributes to a 29 percent increase in detec

Unchanged since 1996, Sweden's hexavalent chromium exposure limit is higher than in several other countries. A research study from Lund University in Sweden shows that even workers exposed to levels of chromium below the Swedish limit display significant cell changes long before cancer develops. A proposal from the Swedish Work Environment Authority to lower the limit has now been put forward. In

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Threats and hate speech from outside are certainly very trying. But could they be even worse when they come from within the organisation?
