What made IKEA go against the grain and move into town? This week, IKEA opened a bedroom store in central Stockholm. The store in The Lobby on Regeringsgatan is the latest in a series of smaller, city-centre formats that IKEA is currently testing in various parts of the world. It is an interesting development, at a time when other retailers are moving out of the city. And it represents another imp

Triple negative breast cancer is an aggressive type of cancer representing approximately nine percent of all breast cancer cases in Sweden. It is more common among younger women, has a high heredity factor and causes more frequent relapses earlier in the course of the disease than other breast cancers. Researchers have applied full genome sequencing to carry out detailed mapping of genetic mutatio

Forum Medicum – the new major construction of the Faculty of Medicine at the top of Sölvegatan – will become a reality. For a while, things looked bad, but by making small adjustments here and there, the project can now be pursued to begin construction in the winter of 2018/2019. The idea of Forum Medicum is to establish a joint biomedical and health sciences centre for research and knowledge. The

A large amount of lungs donated cannot be used for transplantation. Researchers at Lund Stem Cell Center, Lund University in Sweden and Skåne University Hospital have conducted an animal study bringing hope that more donor lungs could be used in the future. The researchers have launched a pilot study to investigate whether the treatment will have the same positive effects on human beings. About 19

The Faculty of Medicine’s new knowledge centre, Forum Medicum, has been inaugurated with great pomp and ceremony. During August, staff and students moved into the building and filled the premises. Forum Medicum brings together the University’s health sciences and biomedical research and education at a single knowledge centre in the middle of the Knowledge Highway on Sölvegatan, directly adjacent t

For the first time, researchers have linked specific frequent defects in sperm to risk of pregnancy complications and negative impacts on the health of the baby. The study from Lund University in Sweden shows that high proportion of father’s spermatozoa possessing DNA strand breaks is associated with doubled risk of preeclampsia in women who have become pregnant by IVF. It also increases the risk

Fördjupade relationer med redan goda kollegor samtidigt som andra valdes bort. Under pandemin minskade spontana möten och vi slöt oss i sociala filterbubblor, men vem som borde tagit ansvar för de sociala relationerna är oklart.

TEDDY- studien har sedan 2004, med hjälp av navelsträngsblod, identifierat skånska barn som har en ökad ärftlig risk att få diabetes. Nu fortsätter studien med uppföljning av 2 500 av dessa barn tills de blir 15 år. Forskarna hoppas att TEDDY-studien ska ge svar på varför barn får diabetes. Typ 1 diabetes drabbar nästan 1,5 procent av alla barn som föds i Sverige. Det betyder att över 800 barn och

De senaste åren har de digitala vårdalternativen för patienter med knä- och höftartros ökat kraftigt – inte minst på grund av pandemin. Men hittills har det inte gjorts några studier som har jämfört effekten av de digitala vårdinsatserna med de traditionellt fysiska. I en studie som publiceras i tidskriften JAMA Network Open, har forskare jämfört de två artrosskolorna. Cirka var fjärde person över

När ett barn visar sig ha nedsatt hörsel – tänk då på att orsaken kan vara mitokondriell sjukdom. Det rådet ger Lundaforskare som tillsammans med amerikanska kollegor undersökt ett ovanligt stort antal personer med mitokondriell sjukdom. De har sett att det är avgörande var i DNA mutationen finns för när hörselnedsättningen debuterar. På det amerikanska sjukhuset Children´s hospital of Philadelphi

Kan två enkla injektioner bromsa sjukdomsförloppet och rädda insulinceller hos barn som nyligen insjuknat i typ 1 diabetes? Preliminära resultat från en svensk undersökning tyder på det. 15 månader efter vaccination hade de barn som behandlats dubbelt så stor förmåga att själva producera insulin jämfört med obehandlade barn. Injektionerna innehåller GAD65 samma ämne som en av diabetesantikropparna

AI, artificial intelligence, is trendy. But where does the boundary go between humankind and machine and what should we use AI for? “It’s time to ask ourselves what humankind possesses that machines do not. How can they complement each other, rather than compete?” asks philosopher Jonna Bornemark. Will your future colleagues have human intelligence – or perhaps artificial? It may sound like a stra
