There is a large carton of chicken eggs on the bench in Sofie Mohlin's laboratory. They have been delivered during the morning and soon they will be placed in the 37-degree heat of the incubator so that the embryo can develop. Already 42 hours after fertilization, researchers can begin their experiments to study how neuroblastoma develops. Sofie Mohlin is an Associate Professor in Molecular Physio

An important element in getting blood stem cells to multiply outside the body is to understand which of the approximately 20 000 genes in the human body control their growth. A research team at Lund University in Sweden has studied close to 15 000 of these genes alongside each other. The researchers have succeeded in identifying four key genes which, together, govern the growth and multiplication

Forskare vid Lunds universitet har utvecklat en teknik för att mäta elektriska signaler från 128 hjärnområden samtidigt hos vakna råttor. Den har de sedan använt för att mäta vad som händer med nervcellerna när råttorna får psykedeliska droger. Resultaten visar på en oväntad och samtidig synkronisering bland nervcellerna i flera områden i hjärnan. Idén om att elektriska svängningar, oscillationer,
