If you are active in a student organisation, in other words a student union, nation or the Academic Society (AF), support is available from the Student Health Centre. This could concern everything from providing information to and interacting with other students to obtaining support for combining your student life commitments with your studies. For many students, student life is an important eleme
Blandine from France How did you end up in Sweden?“I did the first two years of my Bachelor’s in biology in France. I wanted to go abroad, and considered Sweden because I wanted to improve my English. I also wanted to discover a new country, culture and language. I looked into Erasmus programmes and ended up doing one year of Erasmus in Gothenburg. Even before going to Gothenburg, I already knew t

Lais from BrazilHow did you find out about Lund University?“I left Brazil when I was 16. My dad was transferred to work in France, so I finished high school there and did my Bachelor’s there in electronics and automation. I then wanted to specialise in circuit design. I looked at programmes both in Europe and in Asia. There aren’t a lot of programmes in that specific field, but Lund University off

Parkinson: On course against Cure. Our research group focuses on Parkinson's disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disease, with approximately 20 000 patients in Sweden and 2.3 million in Europe.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be understood as systems which show intelligent behaviour by analysing their environment and with some degree of autonomy act to reach certain goals. In colloquial language, AI has become an umbrella term for information technology, robotics, and digitalisation more broadly, including machine learning techniques enabling computers to improve themselves.

Diabetes results from loss or dysfunction of insulin producing beta cells in the pancreas. Despite insulin injection treatment, diabetic patients suffer from long-term complications, such as blindness and kidney failure. Therefore, a central goal of diabetes research is to regenerate beta cells or produce large numbers of functional beta cells for transplantation. The successful generation of beta
Virus är bland de enklaste biologiska objekt i vår omgivning. Vanligen består de av en behållare av protein molekyler, en så kallad viruskapsel, som att bygga på denna viktiga insikt leder vi en bred studie av Herpesvirus där vi utforskar fysikaliska mekanismer som styr virus infektionen och ge en möjlighet till att kontrollera och även stoppa den. Dessutom öppnar studierna porten till strategierMy research area is Virus Biophysics. Research focuses on key physical mechanisms controlling replication of double-stranded DNA and RNA viruses. Experimental model systems used in my group are dsDNA bacteriophages, human Herpes viruses and Rotaviruses. I am specifically interested in physical mechanisms of genome packaging and ejection from viral capsids, viral packaging motors, DNA structural tr
Preeclampsia is a severe pregnancy-related condition that annually affects 10M women worldwide. The etiology is largely unknown and diagnosis is currently based on maternal clinical symptoms: high blood pressure and organ damage manifesting after 20 weeks of gestation. Delivery is currently the only cure. Increased long-term risk for cardiovascular diseases and stroke after preeclampsia point to i
