Fish deaths, algae growth, bans on swimming, and fecal bacteria – now they are just a distant memory. This year, the engineers were able to hold their annual lake battle, the Regatta, on home turf again. This was thanks to LTH’s landlord Akademiska Hus, and their collaboration with VA SYD. But it is also the story of two LTH alumni who, in their professional roles, joined forces to deal with flood

Previous research from Lund University has shown that diabetes can be divided into five groups with different disease progression. A new study published in Nature Genetics demonstrates that there are also genetic differences between different groups of patients. An important goal of the research is to contribute with knowledge that will enable tailored treatments of patients with type 2 diabetes.

A machine allowing researchers to rely on objective, automatized readouts instead of subjective manual counting under the microscope. Incredible pictures. And the possibility to follow live cellular events. The Operetta is the answer to these demands. The interest in using the new MultiPark infrastructure is big. In March, MultiPark received the new Operetta CLS instrument, upgrading the former Ce

We need new ways of understanding how people depend on nature in our efforts to protect biodiversity. A new thesis from Lund University in Sweden suggests that we rarely take into account people’s place-based, varied and often emotional relationships with nature. “Up to now, a common approach has been based on cost-benefit analysis, where, for example, a company can compensate for a factory built

How much environmental impact does your hair removal have? With the method LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) it’s possible to find out. Sustainability researchers from Lund, United Kingdom and Italy put the shaving habits to a test when they tried to find answer to which method has the least environmental impact. That is, if you don't consider the option of not removing it at all. Researchers Tullia Jac

Fallen av bröstcancer mellan två screeningundersökningar blev färre, och av de cancrar som hann utvecklas var färre allvarliga och aggressiva. Nu är slutresultaten från Lunds universitets forskningsstudie MASAI klara, och de visar på ytterligare nytta med AI-stödd bröstcancerscreening. Studien har redan tidigare visat att AI-stöd bidrar till 29 procent fler hittade fall av bröstcancer jämfört med
