More than half a billion people are affected by type 2 diabetes – and the number is growing. In a recent publication in the journal Small, researchers explain how nanoelectroporation can be used to deliver molecules that can affect insulin expression through epigenetic means, potentially leading to new treatments. Genetics cannot explain type 2 diabetes, and epigenetics (i.e. chemical modification

Bone and skeletal injuries cause extensive and long-term functional impairments worldwide. In a new study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden show how a cell-free cartilage structure can safely guide bone repair without triggering strong immune responses. The transplant has been successfully tested in animal models, and the next step is to evaluate the tissue engineering approach in humans.

In 2022, the world's nations achieved a "Paris Agreement for nature" — the Kunming-Montreal Framework, negotiated during COP15 in Canada. Now, the follow-up meeting, COP16, is set to take place in Cali, Colombia. What is Sweden’s position ahead of this meeting, and what policy processes are underway for the implementation of the framework? And where does research fit into all of this? We posed a f

When the researchers from the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) cross the border into Bhutan, the first thing that strikes them is the sense of calm and peacefulness. But it is not just the tranquillity of nature that attracts them, they are here to deepen the collaboration between Swedish engineering know-how and Bhutanese sustainability philosophy – an international exchange that has been going on fo

På Campus Helsingborg pågår ett projekt för att utreda vilka möjligheter det finns att utveckla nuvarande lokaler så att de i högre grad motsvarar framtidens behov av attraktiva arbets-och lärandemiljöer. Ambitionen är även att skapa bättre förutsättningar för samverkan mellan olika verksamheter samt att utnyttja lokalerna effektivare. På denna sida publicerar vi samlad information och uppdatering

När LINXS flyttade från sina gamla lokaler på Ideon till The Loop i Science Village i mars, blev institutet den första forskningsmiljön från Lunds universitet att ta steget upp på Brunnshög. Sedan dess har aktiviteterna mer än dubblerats, nya samarbeten har vuxit fram och stämningen i teamet är påtagligt optimistisk.Jag träffade Anna Ntinidou, administrativ chef, Noomi Egan, kommunikatör, och Jose

Återvinningsindustrin för metaller växer, inte minst genom nya metaller i elektroniska komponenter. Lundaforskare har undersökt inandningsluften på 13 återvinningsföretag i Sverige. Bland resultaten syns höga blyhalter och ett stort antal metaller i blodet hos dem som arbetar med återvinningen. Olika former av metaller ingår i, och är en förutsättning för, tillverkningen av de flesta produkter i d

Årets miljöredovisning visar flera ljusglimtar: många av hållbarhetsmålen uppnås, tågresandet ökar och miljökrav vid upphandlingar ökar. Samtidigt är klimatutsläppen på ungefär samma nivå och det finns fortsatta utmaningar med inköp kopplat till höga klimatavtryck, särskilt kopplat till fastigheter och laboratorieutrustning. Varje år skickar universitetet in en redovisning av vårt miljöledningsarb

Två frågor som tagit relativt mycket av min tid sedan jag blev vicerektor för fem år sedan är hantering av forskningsdata och IT-säkerhet. Båda var områden där LU inte levde upp till förväntningarna på ett topp 100 universitet. Det finns naturligtvis många beröringspunkter mellan områdena, och båda kräver ett betydligt större inslag av universitetsgemensamma lösningar än vad vi är vana vid. Vi har

Gases used in anaesthesia are potent greenhouse gases, and their total global impact has not previously been known. A study published in The Lancet Planetary Health led by Lund University shows that greenhouse gas emissions from anaesthetic gases have decreased by 27% over the last ten years. By swapping out the anaesthetic gas with the highest climate impact, the climate impact of anaesthetic gas
