Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have developed an algorithm that combines data from a simple blood test and brief memory tests, to predict with great accuracy who will develop Alzheimer's disease in the future. The findings are published in Nature Medicine. Approximately 20–30% of patients with Alzheimer's disease are wrongly diagnosed within specialist healthcare, and diagnostic work-up

Den 31 oktober samlas representanter från världens alla hörn i Glasgow för att delta i FN:s stora klimattoppmöte COP26 som ska pågå i två veckor. Förväntningarna är skyhöga efter fjolårets inställda konferens och den alarmerande rapport som FN:s klimatpanel IPCC släppte i augusti. Men vad kan vi egentligen förvänta oss av mötet?

Data literacy is increasing its importance for current and future professionals. But what is ‘data literacy’ exactly and how do LUSEM educators work with it? We asked Blerim Emruli, Senior Lecturer in Informatics, and recently announced as one of the select participants in the Inaugural Professor Ambassador Class at Qlik. Senior Lecturer Blerim Emruli is one of seven educators from around the glob

Hur vi känner inför naturen påverkar vilka trädgårdsinsatser vi väljer och hur mycket de faktiskt hjälper pollinatörer. I en ny studie från Lunds universitet blir sambandet extra tydligt mot bakgrund av samhällets omfattande urbanisering, där både gröna ytor och människors praktiska naturkontakt minskar. Forskarna visar också att trädgårdar blir mest värdefulla när långlivade planteringar priorite

Vi måste prioritera naturen även om det finns andra motstridiga intressen – den biologiska mångfalden är viktig för alla på planeten och avgörande för människors hälsa och välfärd. Det säger Maria Blasi Romero, forskare i biodiversitet och bevarandevetenskap vid Lunds universitet. – Jag åkte till COP15 för att lära mig mer om processerna och hur jag kan dela med mig av min forskning till de som ka

That eating plenty of vegetables, wholegrains and legumes is beneficial for health is well known. More surprising, however, is that people who eat in a environmentally-friendly way also display nutritional values that are better than researchers had expected. This is shown in a new study by Anna Stubbendorff at the Agenda 2030 Graduate School. The EAT–Lancet diet is a global dietary guideline deve

New blood tests for diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease are making early diagnosis increasingly feasible. However, the fact that the markers being measured change long before any symptoms develop represents a challenge.
