Why do some pregnancies succeed while others do not? With support from a newly awarded ERC Starting Grant, Assistant Professor Camila Consiglio and her team at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center are embarking on a project to explore the role the immune system plays in fertility, and in determining reproductive success. Infertility is a deeply personal and global health issue, affecting one in

Researchers at Lund University are developing a new type of gene therapy that reprograms cancer cells within tumors into immune cells that can help the immune system fight cancer. Their approach, now published in the journal Science, could lead to more effective treatments for hard-to-treat cancers. Reprogramming Cancer Cells into Immune Cells Earlier research by the team showed that three special

Pathologists and coroners are now commonplace in crime novels and TV crime series and are often depicted as slightly odd people. Elisabet Englund has worked at the Division of Pathology in Lund for over 40 years. She has often been told that she is a little ‘too happy’ to be a pathologist. “Yes, there is a stereotype of people who work with dead people, which perhaps contributes to the mystificati

LP3 now has a demo unit of Fidabio (Fida Neo instrument) for Flow Induced Dispersion Analysis for protein sample quality, which is available for evaluation purposes the next 3 months. The analysis of sample gives an indication of the protein's health, oligomeric state/complex formation, if its monodisperse or aggregated and buffer compatibility etc. If you have any sample that you would like to kn

IIIEE researchers Lena Neij and Sofie Sandin Lompar shared their ongoing research on transaction costs for acquiring solar PV systems at the 14th International Sustainability Transitions conference in Utrecht. In the light of the numerous challenges we as societies are facing, the need for sustainability transitions is pressing. As researchers, we ask ourselves what is needed to move forward: whic

Air pollution does not only harm human health. New research shows that birds also experience measurable biological changes after breathing in soot particles from traffic emissions. While the effects of polluted air are well documented in humans, far less is known about how animals with different physiologies respond. A new doctoral thesis from Lund University provides fresh evidence of how vehicle

Paul O'Shea and Sebastian Maslow (University of Tokyo) have published an article in the Conversation on the end of Japanese pacifism. The article examines Japan's new role in an increasingly precarious region. The invasion of Ukraine and China's designs on Taiwan have prompted Japan to abandon its low-profile, economy-first approach, seeking instead to shape regional and even global geopolitics. W

IIIEE is taking the lead on open, month-long online courses, known as MOOCs. The investment in MOOCs has been quite a success. In recent years, every sixth student has stated that the online courses influenced them to apply for one of the IIIEE’s traditional courses or programmes. That MOOCs attract students to study programmes is only one of several positive aspects. The opportunity to collaborat

With its rich biodiversity, food production, and vital water resources, Storkriket has now been designated by UNESCO as Sweden’s eighth biosphere reserve. The area, which includes all of Lund and Sjöbo municipalities and parts of Eslöv municipality, will serve as a model region for sustainable development and opens new possibilities for research and education. Storkriket is home to 22 percent of S

The cells that produce insulin and glucagon are difficult to access, as they are located inside the fragile pancreas. Researchers looking to understand how they function and what underpins the development of diabetes are therefore often advised to conduct their experiments on animals. The Human Tissue Lab, on the other hand, provides researchers with access to cells from deceased human donors; thi
