By using cells isolated from cancer patients and mixing them with a new technology called “OssiGel”, it is possible to engineer human mini-bones. These miniaturized organs consist of mature bone and marrow tissue and can be used as model to study the disease mechanisms behind cancers that arise in bone marrow or spread to the bones, and offer the personalized testing of new drugs. Paul Bourgine is

Earlier this week SASNET received a message that the founder and former director of SASNET, Professor Emeritus Staffan Lindberg has died. It is with great sadness that we learned of Staffan’s passing. Staffan was to the very end very active in SASNET, not only as a mentor to current director Andreas Johansson, but also, for his contributions to seminars and publications. Just last year he publishe

High spirits, a magnificently versatile show, and long beer queues, as Lund University staff and students celebrated the 350th anniversary with a big birthday bash. But the party came close to not being held on historic ground. Photo: Kennet Ruona. The National Property Board of Sweden, which manages the buildings in Lundagård park, was for a long time sceptical about having a massive party in Lun

Over the coming years, the Faculty of Science’s four subject libraries will be brought together under one roof. The libraries for geology, biology, physics and astronomy, and chemistry will leave their current premises and move into a shared home in the Astronomy Building, where a study centre is also planned.The relocation of the libraries is the result of several changes: an extensive densificat

The machines have started rolling in at Norunda and are cutting down trees, one by one. Norunda is Sweden’s oldest measuring station for greenhouse gases and it is unique. Following several decades of being surrounded by a hundred-year-old forest, it will instead be surrounded by a clear-cut. - We expect a significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions, says professor Natascha Kljun at CEC. The

A new technology that makes hydrogen from forestry and agricultural residues that are currently burnt is being developed at Lund University. The plan is to efficiently produce a green gas that society needs - while cutting carbon emissions. The researchers' European consortium has received SEK 37 million from the EU Innovation Fund to realise the technology. Renewable hydrogen is no longer conside

Somewhere in an abandoned chalk quarry in northeastern Skåne lurks the skeleton of an 84 million-year-old dinosaur. A group of geologists is convinced of it. Now that a number of teeth have been found, the treasure hunt has intensified. The September sun blazes over the extensive chalk quarry outside the Skåne village of Vinslöv. On a little ledge near a bright blue pond stand two geology research

Megan Andrews is in her second semester of the Bachelor's Programme in Design of Information Systems at the School of Economics and Management. We asked her a few questions about her experiences so far. (The interview is translated from Swedish.)What is your background? “I am originally from Canada, but moved to Sweden four years ago to live with my fiancé. In my home country, I studied psychology

Henning Larsen Architects are the architects behind Forum Medicum and Design Director Ingela Larsson has worked on the project for eight years. Seeing the building being put into use is fantastic, she says. Forum Medicum finally stands ready. How does it feel? – Architecture is a slow art form. We have been working on the project since 2015, when we won the competition for a new, combined medical

Investigating air pollution is not for researchers afraid of heights. One of the fearless is Erik Ahlberg, a combustion physicist at the Faculty of Engineering (LTH). His working days are often spent far above ground – currently on the roof of Malmö Town Hall, where the instruments that capture air particles are located. There are many stairs in the town hall. The last staircase to the top of the

WithSecure visited the Department of Informatics on their European Cyber Tour, allowing students on our Bachelor's programme to get hands-on experience with the handling of cyber threats in a simulated environment. On October 30th, 2023, students taking the course IS and Business Development got to experience something never seen before in the Bachelor's programme on Design of Information Systems.

The aggregation of the protein Amyloid-beta (Abeta) into plaques outside the nerve cells has been recognized in patients with Alzheimer’s disease since 1905. But eliminating the plaques has not helped patients so far. Still, Tomas Roos was recently recruited as a postdoc in our lab. He thinks that Abeta matters, but we may need to focus on the aggregates elsewhere. Earlier this spring, he defended
LUM riktar sökarljuset mot Sverige och låter tio forskare ge sin syn på dagens Sverige och vart vi är på väg. Blir världen bättre? Den frågan ställer sig forskare när 350-årsjubileets första vetenskapsvecka går av stapeln 6-12 mars. Debatt i Lunds panellister inleder veckan genom att vrida och vända på frågan och därefter följer fem dagar med diskussioner och föreläsningar om levnadsstandard, mäns

Tidigare EU-program har handlat mycket om teknik, medicin och naturvetenskap, men de kommande sju åren vill EU se mer tvärvetenskap och samverkan liksom mer samhällsvetenskap och humaniora. Men blir Horizon 2020 det genombrott för humanvetenskaperna som man hoppats? – Vi är på väg, men vi är inte där än, säger Wim van den Doel. Han leder universitetsnätverket LERUs grupp för samhällsvetare och hum

”Ah, vi äter ute idag”. Sommar är för många förknippat med lata dagar med flödande spontanitet. Men för familjer med barn med ätsvårigheter består ”ledigheten” ofta av strategier för att få i barnet näring. Föräldrar till barn med ätsvårigheter upplever sig ofta stå ensamma, utan hjälp från vården och med omgivningens ständiga ifrågasättande. Logopeden och medicine licentiat Kajsa Lamm, har djupin
