From the vice-chancellor blog: Intensive work is being carried out on how we can open doors for Ukraine at the EU and national levels and at Lund University. Here, we are looking at all possibilities to enable us to take in students, academics and researchers who need to leave their country or will need to study or conduct research in their homeland in the future. We are working according to short

Researchers at Lund University have discovered increased levels of a microRNA in type 2 diabetes, which has a negative effect on insulin secretion. Their experiments on human insulin producing cells in the pancreas also demonstrate that it is possible to increase the insulin secretion by reducing the levels of this microRNA. An important goal of the research is to develop new treatments for people

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By analysing the growth rings from trees that are several thousand years old, preserved in peat bogs, geologist Johannes Edvardsson is creating a unique timeline of Sweden’s historical climate. The buried time capsules also hold clues that could help us to better understand how our forests will be affected by future c

Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain’s support cells into parvalbumin-positive cells. These cells act as the brain’s rapid-braking system and are significantly involved in schizophrenia, epilepsy and other neurological conditions. Parvalbumin cells play a central role in keeping brain activity in equilibrium. The

In a new article Madeleine Wahlund and Jenny Palm have reviewed earlier research on citizen participation and energy citizenship. The concepts are tightly connected to the debate on energy transition, and the need for a decentralized energy system, based on renewable energy and increased local energy ownership. The two concepts exist in parallel and are sometimes used as synonyms and sometimes wit

Significant inflation in Sweden means a raised Customer Price Index. This in turn raises our rents to the different property owners of our housing areas. This means that in most of our student housing areas, we will have to raise the rent. Not all areas are affected, however. Due to significant inflation in Sweden, we will have to increase the rent at most of our student housing areas by 8%.  As y
