Researchers at Lund University and Washington University have identified a blood marker that reflects the amount of Alzheimer’s pathology in the brain. This discovery may play a key role in determining who is most likely to benefit from the new Alzheimer’s drugs. In brief:A newly discovered blood marker, MTBR-tau243, can reveal how much Alzheimer’s disease pathology is present in the brain. The hi

Enormous amounts of data about Alzheimer’s Disease have been generated from clinical studies so far. Still, the molecular drivers of Alzheimer’s Disease are largely unknown. With the TAU-TIME project, Jacob Vogel aims to advance knowledge by developing an AI tool that brings together known biological mechanisms with data from patients with the disease. Recent funding from the European Research Cou

A study at Lund University reveals that traumatic brain injury alters the small vessels in the brain, resulting in an accumulation of amyloid beta — a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. The findings suggest that vascular dysfunction could be an early driver in neurodegenerative disorders rather than being caused by neuronal damage. The study is published in Acta Neuropathologica. An increased risk o

Tumörvävnadens styvhet spelar en roll för hur cancer sprider sig. Dessutom lämnar styv tumörvävnad spår i de drabbade cellerna. Detta visar två nya studier från Lunds universitet. – Detta hjälper oss att bättre förstå hur de mekaniska egenskaperna i tumörens mikromiljö aktivt driver cancerutveckling och spridning, säger Vinay Swaminathan, forskare vid Lunds universitet.

Vad är det som gör ett universitet till ett universitet? Att det finns utbildning och forskning vid lärosätet är det enkla svaret. Men ett universitet är mycket mer än så och kanske är det som lättast att fånga essensen av det universum som ett universitet utgör när man vid årets slut sammanfattar det gångna året. Det är knivskarpt, det myllrar, det provar, det reflekterar, det utmanar gränser, de

I Simrishamns kommun har man påbörjat ett förändringsarbete för att göra den kommunala beredningsprocessen evidensbaserad för att politikerna ska kunna fatta så välgrundade beslut som möjligt, särskilt i politiskt känsliga ärenden. Hur detta arbete fortgår kommer att studeras i ett nytt KEFU-finansierat forskningsprojekt. – Så vitt vi vet är det första gången något liknande har gjorts i Sverige oc
