What happened to the generation that experienced the Jasmine revolution in Tunisia as young? How are their views different from those who were only small children and do not remember the expectations of more freedom and bread? Studies in focus groups representing both Generation Z and Millennials in the region give unexpected answers but still hold some optimism for further democratisation. Sarah

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

Perhaps not, argues Yulia Vakulenko. At least not when it comes to the delivery service needs and preferences of rural versus urban e-consumers in the age of consumer-centric supply chain management. The new age of consumer-centric supply chain management highlights the benefits of placing the consumer at the core of strategy development and operations design. Recent e-commerce shifts translate in

En ny studie av forskare vid Lunds universitet ger ytterligare stöd för att typ 2-diabetes bör delas in i undergrupper och behandlas på olika sätt. Studien visar att det finns tydliga epigenetiska skillnader mellan olika grupper av diabetespatienter. Epigenetiska markörer kan kopplas till risken de olika undergrupperna har att utveckla vanliga komplikationer vid diabetes, som stroke, hjärtinfarkt

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
